LIGHT

Warmth, love and kindness.
The Life Stream glimmers and glitters with joy, swirls of shimmering dust dancing around the ray of life.
It was time for new ones to test their wings.


One by one, new adventurers now arrive in the Tree. As one gain wings and rises to the second floor, another light brings in the next person. Soon, a steady stream of people from all kinds of worlds, times and realities come to join the others. Whether confused, angry, excited or scared, your arrival is welcomed with nothing but joy as the fireflies and glow worms descend to greet their new friends.

The Tree offers no explanation and no reason, but the truth is undeniable.

As you will soon realize, it isn't easy to be tiny.

The girl doesn't relish the idea of someone taking authority. Kuvira's encountered that before - a number of the guards she's led are older than her and had been on the force for longer - but for now decides to let it lie. She has only what she can claim and people will allow; anything from there must build on its own.

"I'm told that we can't pass through the fog. Even if I haven't seen for myself, there's no reason she would lie. For now it seems we're contained with some unknown creature just above." Kuvira frowns.

"I see... I suppose this is what it's like to be in an ant farm," Fuu sighed. Wait, did the captain know what an ant farm was? Fuu wasn't sure when they'd been invented on Earth, but for other worlds it was impossible to guess.

And the idea called up the unpleasant implication that they were possibly being observed--a thought that had been lurking, given how all of this had clearly been provided, but with an absence of anyone explaining... Fuu would have to stay alert. "That creature I saw didn't look very nice. I do hope it stays contined."

Kuvira doesn't know what that means, but from context she assumes it means being kept at the mercy of the 'farmer' and confined. "Why would you farm ants?

"I thought spiders are supposed to be able to take their own webs down. It's hard to have faith in one as a barrier to it."

"Oh, it's... a sort of educational toy," Fuu explained. "It's a little glass box and you watch the ants build tunnels, and that kind of thing."

Kuvira's reminder about spiders dropped the smile from Fuu's face, though. "Oh, yes, that's true. They rebuild them every day, don't they?" She tapped her fingers on her chin. "We'll have to be very cautious, then."
