mandalus :: the city of fates.

[Hey kids, guess who's back from the dead? That's right, this guy. And boy does he looks upset and...confused?]

Okay, what the hell is going on here? I just woke up in the middle of a goddamn forest surrounded by strangers in robes, who then dumped me on the side of a road and walked away. Where the hell am I?

[He frowns, worrying his bottom lip with his teeth as he looks around at the otherwise empty forest.]

More importantly, uh, who am I? I don't - I don't remember what... [He runs a hand back through his hair, making it stick up even more. He doesn't remember a lot of things, really. Where he is, what happened, what his name is. It's a lot to take in.] Christ, I hope somebody can hear this.

Hello, can anyone hear me? I..I don’t know if I’ve done this right …

[There was a pause and an upside down view of a shoulder, arm and tree behind it.]

… I seem to be blind.

[All things considered blind was better than dead. But it was certainly disorienting.]

It sounds and smells like a forest, beyond that I don’t know where I am.
