And with the sweat of your brow...
Fun Fact: Did you know that if the multiverse is real, there could be an almost infinite square mileage of completely unexplored ocean out there?
No reason.
...
You wake in one of 25 rooms with a sense of unease that doesn't quite track with how nice the accommodations are. Maybe it has something to do with the giant window leading out to the sea. The temperature is low, which might make you wish you had woken up under the luxurious covers instead of atop them. The lights, too, are low. But next to your bed is a small personal radio, and it's playing a song for you. There's also a small note printed on folded cardstock next to it.
Dear Prospective Citizen,
Welcome to the Helios Suites at New Rapture. The time should currently be 12:00 PM. Please take a moment to get your bearings and become acquainted with your new environment, then meet in the hotel lobby at 1:30 PM sharp for an orientation with Mayor Fontaine.
With only that for guidance, there's only the one thing to do: get out there and start exploring... well, it's hardly a full city, but it's something! And in the halls (or on the wall of your suite or the lobby), you very well may find up to 24 other captives.
What you do until your meeting with Mayor Fontaine, well... that's up to you. Every room certainly gives you something to talk about.
No reason.

[ But, Vholran isn't surprised. No one is bound to provide any useful information at this point. ]
no subject
[ He doesn't seem too concerned with the insult. Yet.
Wot, did you think anyone here has a proper explaination? We're all looking for the same awnsers, you see.
no subject
There would be some who'd have one.
To expect them to immediately provide could be another matter. But, there are ways, if anyone is uncooperative.
[ So, yes and no. ]
no subject
I see.
Well then! If you really think I could give you any more than I have, you'd better give me a proper laugh for the trouble!
[ He isn't changing the fee just because you're new to him! ]
no subject
...What?
[ Oh my god. ]
no subject
no subject
[ ...because apparently that clearly this guy can't be serious. ]
no subject
[ He is serious. Ask the Queen's Watchdog. ]
no subject
Maybe he can see that. ]
Do I look like a comedian to you?
no subject
[ He says this with the biggest shit eating grin. ]
Ah well, if you really can't at least try, then I suppose I'm not gonna be of much use to you.
no subject
I've assumed you wouldn't at this point. Now at least.
