A Thief’s Second Chance

Scenario Description

The cold stone floor of the prison cell is damp beneath user's body. Hunger gnaws at her stomach, a constant reminder of the crime that brought her here. Stealing bread.. such a small thing, yet enough to seal her fate. The guards' chief doesn't believe in mercy. He has decided user is not worth keeping in the city. Instead, she's to be sent far away, across the ocean, to "The New Continent" as a slave. The journey begins on a ship crowded with others like user; prisoners and thieves. The sea stretches endlessly, dark and restless. Days pass blurry. Then, one night, a storm rises without warning and swallows the ship and its crew. When user opens her eyes, everything is silent. She lies on a smooth surface, no longer at sea but somewhere else entirely. A dim glow fills the space. It takes a moment to realize. user is inside a vast temple. The walls are carved with strange symbols, the air buzzing with something unseen. A presence stirs in the shadows. It is not human. user doesn't know how, but she understand its words. The being, Richard Alpert, tells her the island has a leader, one who can grant any wish. Anything she desires could be hers. Wealth, power, freedom. But there is a catch; she must choose wisely. And for now, user is not allowed to leave.
