When Anthea and Sienna sat down at the bar, the first thing the bartender asked was "Wh' you like?"

"I'll have a glass of Khortytsa," Sienna replied.

Anthea, who didn't drink very often, said "I'll just have a jui-"

"Anthea," her "sister" stopped her, "you know how Fairwyn natives feel about non-alcoholic beverages."

"They don't lash out on you that much for just ordering juice, and I'm not a real alcoholic anyway."

"Just get a wine cooler, just in case."

"Alright," she sighed and told the bartender, "I'll have a strawberry wine cooler."

The bartender, though a bit uncertain at Anthea's choice, made the drinks anyway.

The Wine Cooler wasn't too bad, and Anthea enjoyed it (much to her surprise).

"So....Anthea...how's the wine cooler?" Sienna (who was on her third or something glass of Khortytsa) asked.

"It's good... Sienna." She replied.

"That's...great."

"Thanks..."

"You're...*hic*...welcome."

"Sienna..." Anthea started, "you're drunk, aren't you?"

"Maybe I am.... Maybe I'm not."

"You sound like you are."

"Screw that! I feel.... great!" Sienna grinned, and then got up and said, "I'm going to...use... the restroom."

"Ok... don't trip or throw up..." she watched as her "sister" headed to the restroom.

Sienna tripped and fell down, Typical.... Anthea thought.

Then, she noticed something. Sienna was trying to interact with another Valen. Rosaline, it seemed. "Hi there.... sorry for trippin'.... can you... help me up?" Sienna asked Rosaline.

Anthea sighed, "Yep, she's definitely drunk."

"Anthea.." Sienna started as they started heading into Fairwyn, "this place sure does live up to how I expected it..."
Anthea gave her a weird look and said, "you don't say?", as they entered a bar that the other valens were going to.

The appearance of the bar was decent enough, much to Sienna's shock. However, the overly-sexualized women and strength-pumped men took the glory of a bar out of her head. Oh well, she thought, I might forget about this ridiculous place after a few drinks.

So, she sat down in one of the stools and ordered a glass of Khortytsa*, hoping she could forget the sight of all those ridiculous Fairwyn natives in the bar. Ahhhhhh..... that hits the spot.....
That feeling was diminished after she heard, "NO! DOORS ARE FOR PUSSIES", then something she couldn't quite make out, and then she noticed a valen, Magnus, she assumed, tossing people out of the bar.

"What...the...****....." Sienna stuttered as she watched.

Then, she overheard, "Look at you all -- fighting, and over what? Nothing really. Would it not be more fun to dance or enjoy one's company?", to which she couldn't really reply on, since the only fighting she really saw was Magnus throwing people out of the bar.

When Anthea and Sienna reached the bottom of the castle, the first thing they saw were some valens leaving.

"Well," Sienna started, "Do your clairvoyance!"

"Sienna," she replied tensely, "First off, I am not within four feet of any of those Valens, which I need to be in order to use my power; and second, we're still on the castle grounds, which severely limits my powers."

"Then, we'll follow them, and then you can do your clairvoyance when you're far enough."

"Fine," Anthea said, and followed the Valens.

Damn, she thought, Sienna is annoying at times, but she's never like this. What's up with her? It's like...

"Anthea!" She was interrupted by Sienna, "You can do your clairvoyance now! =)"

Anthea sighed, and focused on a valen (she didn't know it's name, though), then closed her eyes and concentrated.

She couldn't gain much information, but she did get "....Fairwyn."

"Anthea, are you okay?" Sienna asked.

Anthea shook her head, "I'm fine, Sienna."

"So, what did you hear?"

"I think they're going to Fairwyn."

"Fairwyn?" Sienna was a bit shocked and disgusted, at least to Anthea, "You mean the region with those over-sexualized women and the stupidly large buildings, and the stockpiles of alcohol and weaponry?"

"I guess so, Sienna. Though I don't know why instead of anywhere else, they want to go to Fairwyn."

"Let's follow them anyway, we could get some good information about what the hell's going on over there, and I might forget how much I hate that region after a few drinks."

Anthea was a bit confused at her "sister's" answer, but she went along with it, "Alright then."

​

After Anthea described to her what was going on, Sienna decided to go to the same window to see for herself. Indeed, there were at least 20 valens shuffling their way inside the castle, But for what? she thought, then she noticed a figure falling down and said, "Is that.... Crestatia?"

Anthea looked a little closer and replied, "I suppose that is her."

The two watched her until she vanished, she may be gone for good, Sienna smiled a bit, that's great.

After she vanished, she turned to her "sister" and said, "we should leave, Anthea."

Anthea gave her an odd look, "But where would we go?"

"Maybe you could look into the minds of the other Valens and see what they're doing."

"Sienna, my power is telepathy, not mind-reading."

"But what about your Clairvoyance?"

Anthea sighed, "I have to be near a Valen in order to do that."

"Can you at least try to use it?" You can find a Valen and do it."

"Fine, but we have to leave the Foyer."

"Whatever you must do," and Sienna followed Anthea out of the room.

"We might as well get down from here, but how?", Sienna turned to Anthea and asked this.

She sighed, "I would suggest using our powers," she started, "but since they're reduced in this castle..."

"Well, it looks like the path we took isn't blocked, let's go that way."

"Alright then, Sienna," Anthea then followed her back into the castle.

After some time, dust and debris fell from the ceiling again, and Anthea and Sienna found themselves in the main foyer again.

" I hear something... besides that strange shifting," Sienna said.

Anthea looked outside, and there was some mob of at least twenty Valens, but why?

"It's some mob, Sienna," Anthea started, "At least 20 Valens are in it. "

"Why, though?"

Anthea was as confused as her "sister", she had no idea why that mob was there, "I don't know."

​

When Crestatia arrived at the foyer, Sienna felt like she was stabbed by a spear. That damn Crestatia! She thought. Sienna always had a grudge against her for reasons, one of them being that she lost some of her land during the last game, which Crestatia was the coordinator of.

As she sat down, she heard the somewhat-an-introduction Marina did: "Thank you for that introduction Crestatia. For Redemption, I need everyone to be so kind as to draw one card for each of the pawns you intend to start with. If you add more pawns later, they will just be thrown into the fray."
Sienna reached for the center of the table and drew one, it was a Spade. Then, she glanced at Anthea's card, a heart. She didn't know what that meant yet, could their pawns be on separate teams, or maybe there were different limits for the pawns? She sighed, Hopefully Anthea won't be too mad about my pawn....

Then, Sienna thought a bit about the Gameboard. It was impressive, especially for someone's first game.....

She heard something, a bell ringing, perhaps? What's going on?, she thought, are we starting? Or....

Then, the castle started to shake, violently, Alright, what's going on? This doesn't usually happen at all!

Sienna overheard something, they had to stop the bell. But how? Even if her powers weren't reduced here, they couldn't stop something. Her temporal duplication could bring past and future versions of an object into the present, but how could that stop a bell (key word: Duplication); then there was her Animation ability, which let her bring inanimate objects to life, but she couldn't make them inanimate again, so that was pointless in this situation. Finally, there was her thunder manipulation, which could work, but she wasn't sure if it could.

After a few Valens tried to help, the bell quiets down. The castle was still shaking though. Sienna noticed that some were walking towards a hallway, and she decided to follow them (taking Anthea with her). After a bit of time, they all ended up in a garden where a few others were. There, she found the source of the ringing, a huge bell with the words "TIME IS UP" on it.

Time is up. Time is up. Time is up. Sienna had only been a Valen for about 24 human years, and now time is up. By now, she should have been 40, but she was able to sustain her 17-year-old appearance by becoming a Valen, and now time is up. She should be Marigold "Mary" Lenin, but she was able to change her name to Sienna, and now time is up. Darn, Sienna thought, the 1000 years we had is now over.
Then, she turned to Anthea, "We might as well get down from here, but how?"

Anthea watched as Sienna walked up on one side of Marina and say, "Hello there, one-called-Marina. I am Sienna, and I am delighted to meet you."

There were many Valens already there, yet she chose to ignore that fact. Oh well, Anthea sighed, Sienna is always impatient like that.

As she walked a little closer to the new coordinator, she was able to hear her response, "It is a pleasure Sienna," pause, "If you do not mind, I have more players to greet."

Well, that wasn't what she expected. Usually, when Sienna sort-of-snuck-up on new Coordinators, they were either scared or very confused. That was different.

Hmmmmmm.... Anthea thought, ...I wonder what her game will be, and how she will coordinate this game. Will she succeed in her very first game, or will she fail? I'm curious. I may not have paid much attention to her during 100 Days, but she seems intresting. Of course, I didn't pay much attention to her. Two of my pawns did little in the game, and the third one was killed during that flood....

Letting curiosity get the better of her, she walked up to Marina and said, "Hi there.... Marina, I am Anthea, and it is a total pleasure to meet you."

​

"Thank you to those of you that have already arrived. It is much appreciated. I do believe we should be starting soon, so just hold tight." Anthea looked over and saw the new Coordinator say that.

"Alright then," she thought, "that's fine."

While waiting for Sienna, Anthea strolled around the foyer, looking through some of her old game notes. She didn't interact with any of the Valens, since she distanced herself from most of them. Many people were greeting Marina, the new coordinator, but she wanted to wait until Sienna arrived to join the crowd. She didn't usually want to greet new coordinators (but she had to anyway, since Sienna dragged her to them), but she had an interest in this one. She didn't observe her much during 100 Days, but there was something about her....

A few minutes later, she heard a familiar voice: "Hey Anthea. Good thing I'm not late like last time, right?"

Anthea turned around to see Sienna, wearing a frilly black dress with a matching headband, "Hello there, Sienna," she started, "I've been waiting for you. Shall we greet the new Coordinator?"

​

"Hello there, Sienna. I've been waiting for you. Shall we greet the new Coordinator?"

That wasn't what Sienna was expecting to come out of Anthea's mouth. Greet the new coordinator? Usually, it would be her dragging Anthea to a new coordinator if there was one. They were always so exciting. It usually made Anthea nervous to greet someone new.

Sienna sighed, "That wasn't what I was expecting for you to say...." she started, "...but alright then." She then walked over to Marina, noticing that there were other Valens there too. One of them, Rosaline, already beat her to it.

That didn't stop Sienna, though, from walking to the other side of the new coordinator and saying, "Hello there, one-called-Marina. I am Sienna, and I am delighted to meet you."

​

Before leaving her region, Sienna looked through her library to find her 100 Days notebook, since that could help her with this new game, with this new coordinator.
"Lets see...." She started, "Outsiders, Fun & Games, Silver Lights... ah, here it is!" She pulled out a blue notebook with "100 DAYS" written on the cover and placed in in her trusty bag. Then, she picked up a blank yellow notebook on her desk and a pen to also put in the bag. As she walked out of the room, she thought a little about the previous game, and her pawns for it.
"Thank you, my pawns, for doing well. You both may have lost, but you both did good." She thought as she left.

Sienna considered her region to be unique. Besides having a few little towns, she was able to make a small resort in the middle of it, complete with some water slides, a kiddie roller coaster, a popular (at least in her region) restaurant, and a spa. She was proud of the little resort, and considered it the "Most fun place someone could be" in her region.She lived in one of the suites in the hotel, so she was able to walk around a bit and enjoy her little creation before heading over to the Hall of Games, passing the rollercoaster and the Adults-only pool. She smiled, "I hope I won't have to give any of this up."

Sienna was excited for the new game to begin (especially if the coordinator was new), as she always was when a new game started. So she did a jogging-walking-skipping routine while on her way to the Hall. When she got to the main foyer, she saw that there were some Valens already there, including the new Coordinator, Marina. "Good," she thought, "I'm not late like last time."
Then, she noticed Anthea and walked up to her, "Hey Anthea," she started, "good thing I'm not late like last time, right?"

As she left the flower-covered Rosabella, Anthea got nervous about what was to come. She knew that she shouldn't be, since she played in many games before this one. Yet, every time a new game starts, she grew very anxious no matter who the coordinator was, even if it was Sienna or even herself. However, she was a bit curious about this new valen, Marina. She wondered how well she would be at her first game.

Anthea didn't bring much to the Hall of Games: Only a notebook where she kept all of her notes from previous games and a pen if she needed to take any notes about the current game. Her only possession from her time as a pawn, a photo in a lavish magenta frame, could stay in Rosabella, as it wasn't of much worth at the hall, and how would bringing an old relic from her past change anything?

When Anthea approached the game hall, she entered and walked to the Main Foyer. She saw that only a few people were there so far: Kuru, Ursa, Asterion, Prism, Sangria, Daphne, Rosaline, and the newest Valen herself, Marina.

Sienna wasn't there yet. Anthea sighed, "Hopefully Sienna won't be late like last time," She mumbled.

Looks good. Thanks! =D

Ha.=) Same here.

I haven't thought much about it yet, but I do have a few:

-Study hard and get accepted to the school I plan on going to
-Exercise more often (like about 3-5 times a week)
-Fix my PS3 (the visuals/sound don't work)
-Start practicing viola more often

I might have some more later, but that's what I have so far.
