EVENT: Illusions of the Important
Think of the person that elicits the most emotions from you. A lover, a family member, maybe even an archenemy? All through the night, you'll see that person. Nobody else seems to be able to, though... but they're real. In fact, you're going to prove it. You can chase all you want, though, but you'll never catch them.

EVENT: Nothing out of the ordinary...
...apart from the fact that there is suddenly life, anyways. In fact, there is even a lively festival going on in the City Centre where there is free food. Eat all the food you want, take a hot shower, feel free to let your guard down... wouldn't it be nice if all nights were like this?

It's a sudden and jarring change. One moment there is the familiar momentum of a horse at full gallop beneath him, adrenaline making his blood pump fast through him, loud in his ears, the Titans bearing down on his group--there is panicked shouting from the soldiers behind him, and he rises up in the stirrups of his saddle--

And then, with the echo of a child's voice in the back of his mind, he is standing on his own two feet on a patch of barren soil facing gates nearly as large as those set into the walls. But these ones are crumbling, and the walls around them don't rise so high that they seem to touch the sky itself. It's enough to make his head spin, and for a moment he is struck dumb by the scenery whiplash. But Erwin has nothing if not a quick and adaptable mind, and his wits soon return to him. With them, of course, come an onslaught of questions he can't hope to answer for himself yet.

His hands stray instinctively to his hips, looking for the grips of the pair of blades that should be settled there, but find nothing. Though he wears the harness still, he is missing the reassuring weight of the maneuver gear itself: the sheathes by his sides, the propulsion system at his back. Gone, along with his horse, along with his men, along with everything familiar to him. He has never seen a landscape such as this one.

The only thing to do, then, is to look around and try to gauge what happened, where he is--the worn "Central City" sign doesn't do much to satisfy his curiosity.

Past the gates, the seemingly abandoned city turns labrythine. He wanders down several smaller streets only to be me with abrupt ends, empty alleyways seemingly purposeless and connected to nothing but what he assumes is a main street. He ends up retracing his steps several times over, and ultimately sticks to the larger roads instead. He's yet to see anyone else, nor has he found anything that would serve to answer any of his questions. His booted footsteps seem loud on the roadway beneath his feet, the only sound in an otherwise eerie silence.

[At least everyone else seems to be just as confused as he is.

Except he has no reason to trust that. His first mistake would be making any quick assumptions about these people. Everyone's acting confused, and perhaps some of them are genuine. It doesn't seem likely that this many people would band together just to deceive him. That doesn't mean that some of them aren't lying, though.

For now the best thing to do is play along with the overall mood. If there's an underlying trap to this, probably better not to give any hint that he suspects it.

Having taken only a few steps into the ruined city, Uilliam stands with hands on hips and a perplexed little frown on his face. They've been congregated out here long enough, he thinks, which means it's time to take a deeper look around. And regardless of whether or not he trusts these people, fact is he's not what anyone would describe as combat-ready.

Which means that he needs allies. Great. What an annoying dilemma to add on top of all this...

Uilliam looks back over his shoulder, calling to those still assembled;]


Heeey! Who's going to come exploring with me?
