They walked through a long corridor with polished marble walls before they came to the exit. It led onto a spacious balcony with benches to the sides. And then it opened up to a clear blue sky and thousands of colors. At the edge of the balcony was a drop far down into a valley. Far below you could just make out animals or dragons. The valley ran towards both sides as far as you could see. On each side of the valley was a mountain that extended far above them. And plastered all over the side of the mountain was buildings upon buildings with colors of every color and dragons to match. Flying, walking, even swimming in large pools build into the mountain. Some of the buildings looked like stores with fruits and vegetables. There was a large building on the opposite side of where they were standing, separated by a long open space into the valley below, where smaller dragons were playing in what could have been school grounds. There was another building with flickering lights that was too far to make out what it was. The buildings were cut from stone and had a theme of circles on the sides that was eye catching and beautiful. Wherever there was no buildings there were green grass and trees with fruit all around and paths that led everywhere zigzagged in and out of the mountains. And there were dragons everywhere and of every size. Some, three times the size of the houses, sat far above where one could only guess that there were places build specifically for them.
Venti flew up. "Well, let's go. The Healing Springs aren't too far from here." Not noticing the majestic sight that was a day to day scene for her.

"By God. This is beautiful. How are you not moved?!" Vex said forgetting his troubles for a sec.

Yuki walked out the tunnel and the first, and only, thing she noticed was the height. She didn't care if she had wings, she didn't know how to fly (or at least she didn't know she knew how to fly). She dug her claws into the ground as far as she could and anchored herself to the ground.

Venti looked around. "Yeah it's pretty, we're definitely living on the side where the grass is greener. So are we going or what? You do want to find out what's wrong with you don't you?"

Vex gulped as he came back to reality. "Yes please... Lead the way."

"You're crazy. I don't know how to fly." She called up to Venti, but slinked back again when she felt too close to the edge.

"You want to walk?" Venti groaned. "That's going to take three times longer." She said, but landed back on the ground. "Alright, lets go." So took the path to the side of the balcony. The path hugged the mountain and was wide and neat. Most of the time there was a drop over the edge, but sometimes it passed between two buildings or into a square filled with dragons. Other dragons on the path didn't seem to pay any attention to the two new dragons.

"I'm sorry..." Yuki said, feeling she'd hurt venti's feelings. She hung her head low as she walked along. She tried to act natural around the other dragons, but had no idea what that mean or constituted. What was normal for a dragon... what was even normal about being a dragon. She mulled over her thoughts as she followed the greed drake leading the way.

ooc: Let's hope you never end up in a strange new world Raider, because you'd be the most boring person to ever end up in one. Alternate worlds are wasted on you. End up in Pokemon world, do you rush to become a pokemon master? Nope, rather just stay at home and watch this Rhyhorn and his trainer on the train tracks. End up in Equestria, do you make friends with all the ponies? Nope, leave to go search for a McDonalds. End up in One Piece do you search for a Devil Fruit? Nope, just stay in a East Blue island town and move as soon as pirates show up. At least that's what your characters are like! Both Vex and Alan! Nothing surprises them, nothing makes them afraid, nothing makes them nervous, they have no emotion. When you write Vex saying: Wow how can you not notice how gorgeous this is? That doesn't give your character any emotion. When you write: Vex was afraid of the dragons around him. That doesn't convey any emotion on him. But when you write: Vex mouth hang open as he took in the scene, images like things he could only imagine in games filled his vision. He was so taken in by the scenery that he forgot to breath and had to gulped down a deep breath to fill his lungs. That gives your character life. Try to give your characters more life. You're not going to say things like that if you ended up in another world are you? If you really think about it.
BIC: After a while they came to a building filled with vines that had pink flowers growing on them. Butterflies flew around from flower to flower, making it look like the building was shimmering. "Here we are." Venti announced. "I'm sure Needle wouldn't mind seeing us right away."

"Well, it's a step forward... I guess." Yuki said and held her head up with a hope that things might yet get sorted out. She was only then enraptured by the sight of the building, staring until her eyes started to dry out.

"Well this is amazing! How do you even plant flowers like that!?" Vex said in awe.

Venti looked at them. "You guys are weird, and I'm starting worry about you. But don't worry, there's nothing that Needle can't cure." She walked into the building through a door of vines. The room was very large inside and there were a few dragons curled up on seats. Three about their size and one twice their size. Venti walked over to a desk with a dragon sitting behind it going through papers. "Hello Melon, can I see Needle please? I have two patients and it's kind of an emergency." "Go ahead Venti." The secretary told her. "She just finished with new parents so she's on a short break now." "Thanks." She turned to her two companions. "Follow me." She said and went through some large wooden doors.

Yuki stayed quiet. The dragons twice Vex and Venti's size were much larger then, and to, her. She was now actually sick with worry, her stomach tied in knots and mouth dry from breathing kind of heavy. She had her head hanging low while inside the hut to avoid eye contact with anyone and in the end she literally looked like she was sick at this point.

"She's the best Healer in all of the Ridge." Venti assured them and looked back. "There's nothing she can't cure. And it looks like we better hurry." They eventually walked through a door into a room that was several stories high with a staircase leading down to the floor from the entrance. In the middle of the room was the largest dragon they've seen so far. About five times larger than Venti. She was pink and despite her intimidating size her eyes were welcoming and kind. Her tail seemed to go on endlessly and spiraled around the room. The dragon lifted her head as the three entered. "Venti?" She sounded a bit surprised, but pleasantly so. "I didn't expect a visit from you." "Hello Needle. I've got a bit of a problem." She said and waved a wing towards her two companions. Needle brought her large head close to them. "And who is this?" She asked curiously. "What seems to be the problem?"

Vex coughed and stammered for a bit. "Well... to come to right to the point we used to be human." Vex said.

Yuki trembled at first and fell to her belly, the kinder aura of this dragon being the only thing keeping her from fainting outright. She stared for a bit, both because the black dragon seemed to be in the same both and stated their problem, and because the sheer size of this dragon left her completely speechless, and not from fear but something more akin to awe.

"I think they may have bumped their heads." Venti told Needle. "And they think they really were humans." "I see." The large pink dragon said. "This does sound serious, let's take a look at you." Needle brought her head close to to the two human dragons and blew a green mist over them. The mist was soothing and cleared their minds, making Yuki less likely to faint for any reason. "Now, come sit here." She tapped at some pillows that was in front of her. "And tell me everything that you think has happened to you. And don't worry about anything you may say, you can be honest with me and tell me how you feel and what is worrying you."
ooc: Remember that the details about their human pasts are fuzzy. They may remember things that had a big impact on their lives. But if they say have siblings, but weren't very close to them they may remember having siblings, but not their names and personalities. Stuff like that. And neither of them remembers the voice that spoke to them before coming here.

"Well... I was... uh... I feel nice. But I was in school... I was a human... and... I was... Its very blurry." Vex said.

Yuki felt calmer and tried to remember her past but it came in dirty clumps. Like looking through a heavily frosted window at her past. She remembered her parents existed and they left on not so good terms. She really remembered her friends and that she only had one good one, though her name and face eluded her thoughts. And she remembered school. But alas, she couldn't remember what the name of the school was or what she was taking. From what she'd seen coming up this far from the pools, this world seemed to have all of that. She tried to remember something that they didn't have here... Herself?, "I don't remember much. As the black dragon said, it's blurry, almost literally. But I remember how I looked as a human. Vividly. I was rather obsessed with my appearance I think. I was a paler white, had smooth, black hair, and... She struggled to see the details that were failing her memories, "I liked to wear brightly colored shirts with matching nail polish." And that was all she could remember... It made her sad, really, all her life as a human and she couldn't remember most of it. The only thing she was certain of was that she'd never..., "And I have no memory of being a dragon. In my world, dragons don't exist outside of story books and fiction. Dwarves fall into that category too." She looked over at Venti and then back up to Needle. I only have memories of being human and I'm certain that's what I was without doubt. I just woke up soaking wet in a pool with boom. I'm a dragon."

Venti tilted her head and looked at them with confusion. The pink dragon however was very calm. "I see. It must have been very frightening for the two of you. Tell me about when you got here, how you felt and what you experienced. Also try to think of something really important to you and tell me about that." She blew more green mist over them as she waited for them to answer.

"My friends are... were really important to me..." Yuki felt a little sad again, "I wish I could see them again. I guess I won't miss school much, but I'm going to miss my best friend. I... I can't even remember her name." Tears started to form on the edge of the purple bands along her face, causing them to shimmer a bit.
OOC: Not sure the extent of our memory loss, but I'm assuming significant, permanent, memory loss describes it.

"I can't remember. My... um... I can't remember anything. I was in school for game design and then it was all a blank." Vex said.

The pink dragon blew one last cloud of smoke over them. "I want you to keep those memories you have close to you. They may help you regain the rest of your memories. I know this is very strange and overwhelming for you, but try not to be scared, you are safe here and if you need anything just ask." She turned her head to the green dragon. "Venti?" "Yes Needle!?" Venti said straightening her back. "I can't find anything physically wrong with them." Needle told her. "I want you to take care of them." "Me?" Venti said and her wings drooped. "But I can't, I have... things, and I still need to practice with the pool and next week..." "You're almost at an age when you have to decide what you're going to do in life. Taking care of them may help you decide how to use your gifts." "If it was up to my Dad I'd be kept in my room all day and only go out to perform my duties." Venti said pouting. Needle laughed softly. "He only cares about you, if a little over protective. I want you to take them and teach them about the world. They seem to know very little, so I want you to answer their questions and explain to them the things they don't know about. Hopefully something will help their memories. Will you do this for me?" Venti sighed. "Yes Needle. I'll look after them." "Thank you Venti." She turned back to the two amnesiacs. "I'll try to find out more about you and find you a place to stay. So please don't worry."

"Umm, thank you." Yuki said, glad that someone finally believed her. She lifted her head up and looked to Venti, "And thank you. I'm sorry if we're a burden."

"Do not worry, we will find you a place of your own." Needle assured Vex. "That's alright." Venti told Yuki with a wave of her claw. "Come. I'll take you to the sheeb fields. I was on may way there and it's a nice place to relax. Bye Needle!" "Take care Venti and remember our lessons." "I will." Venti said and started up the stairs.
