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.

Yeah, I think they were just being nice. [Says the devastatingly beautiful man who was unknowingly taken to a queer bar.]

Jonathan! Cool, cool. Hey, are you, like, from England? 'Cause my friend slash wife Tahani and you have the same accent and I wanna make sure I'm getting my geology right.

[He perks up slightly.]

I am! Ha, I suppose my accent is a bit obvious to Americans.

[He's assuming that's an American accident.]

You have a wife? What is she like?

Yeah! We just got married, like, a couple days ago. [He beams. Score one for Jason! He guessed an accent right in one go and he gets to talk about his awesome best friend wife.]

She's super smart and super pretty and she's really good at talking to people and throwing big charity parties. After we got married she even bought us a big bag of tacos on the way back from the courthouse.
