You were in the middle of something--fighting, dying, maybe just heading to work--when suddenly the ground beneath you was no longer what you expected it to be. The world went dark, only to reveal one you never knew. Somewhere in the distance, you can hear water running and the faint sounds of birds, although none of them seem to come close enough to see. In what you think might once have been a town, there are only old, dilapidated buildings. The air is too heavy, too quiet. And then someone greets you. Perhaps it's someone you know. Most likely, it isn't. They'll tell you that you're safe, that you'll find some things that will help you in your pockets (or whatever you have that could pass for a pocket), and that you should come with them to the hotel. The hotel doesn't look better than any of the other buildings from the outside, but at least there are lights and running water (or at least, the man at front desk promises there is). Before you head to your room, the man running the front desk admits that they haven't had visitors in quite some time and that Old Ashton has certainly seen better days, but it just needs some new blood to liven up the place. If you're not too tired or scared, you might hear the hope in his voice. And maybe you're not completely afraid of it.  OLD ASHTON is a panfandom, AU (including CRAU) character friendly game centered around a village that has been withering away with the dwindling powers of its native deities, who have brought you here to fulfill your true potential and help bring their town back to life. |
