You decide to head EAST, to the lake. It's about a five minute walk, but you're taking time to observe the environment. To let the visuals sink in. It appears to be daytime, and what passes for a sun in this world doesn't hurt to look at. In fact, looking at the sun in...wherever you are fills you with tranquillity and an almost romantic appreciation for being alive. It's just a weird, pink-orange sphere, but you can't help fulfilled by it. The trees sway gently back and forth rhythmically, seeming to be sentient with the way they fluidly move with the gentle breeze. All kinds of flowers you've never seen before. Where exactly are you?

You aren't paying much attention when you trip over a vine and tumble a bit, landing on your face at the edge of the lake. Well, you're here now. Scooting towards the water's edge, you peer into the crystal-clear water and see a [MALE/FEMALE] staring back at you, along with beautiful species of fish with all kinds of colour combinations. It's not long before you hear some singing and moving water (as if someone is swimming in it) some distance away from you. Walking closer to the source of the noises but remaining on dry land and not entering the lake, you soon come upon what looks to be a woman in the middle of the lake singing and...bathing?

But, upon further inspection, you see that she isn't a 'woman'. Not in the human sense of the word. Parts of her are human while other parts are plant-like. She has two eyes and as far as you can tell, two legs, but that's about it. Looks like she has four arms and rose pedals growing out of her back. You find...her? hard to describe, even though you're the one looking! Both her voice and her likeness are beautiful. Instead of gawking, you decide to . . .

Because this SG is more minimal than Breakfast Wars, updates will be more frequent as I have more room to stretch things and have developed this setting more. No, this isn't meant to be a perverted scene. Nor will it be.

"Um...excuse me". You start out loud, but trail off in uncertainty. Maybe she's hostile? Maybe she would be hostile because some random is spying on her. But why is...she? in the middle of a lake bathing and singing naked where everyone can see? The bathing lady surprises you with her response. She turns towards your direction calmly and slowly, leading you to believe she doesn't know she's naked. You know when humans are caught with no clothes on, they freak out until they get near a source of clothing. Some even throw things! What the hell was she about? If 'she' even is a she.

"Pardon? Who's there?" she asks, her voice just as soothing and alluring now as it was when she was singing. You quickly swoop back behind the tree you were hiding behind originally. Too much inaction will lead to you getting in your own head. Come on, quit being an idiot and talk to her. You're the one who bothered her, after all. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Maybe she'd suck your brains out. Maybe she'd probe you. Hopefully she'd anaesthetise you before she did either of those things. You slowly emerge from behind your tree. "U-um. Hi. I, uh, didn't see anything important I just...uh, was looking for directions to-"

...Well, she's walking towards you now, with the poise and grace that you'd expect from someone who sounds like an angel and is as pretty as one in concept. Time to explore your options. You can pretend to die of a heart attack, which might work because your heart is racing. Maybe pretend to be a tourist? Why would that work? You don't even know where you are! The only thing you can do is Solid Snake it and hide behind the tree again. Maybe you can get the jump on her! You're going out Space Marines style!

The flower angel lady is already on your side of the lake, and three feet away from the tree you're 'taking cover' behind. "Strange one. Why do you seek protection from that tree?"

"Um, well...I don't know where I am and you're not human, so I figured you'd maybe...eat...me if I didn't..." You think you sound pretty stupid at this point. You're still hiding behind the tree and thus can't see her face, but you can almost feel her confusion.

"Is that right?", she coos. "Why do you trifle with me? Surely you know you're in Outrealm, and I couldn't be human because humans have been banished since the last war. Now, do come from behind that tree so that we may have proper discourse."

Great. You're getting somewhere. You know you're in Outrealm, but you're not supposed to be here. It looks like flower chick has no interest in eating you, but she might retain an interest in probing you. You shudder at the thought and ...

Poke our head out from behind the tree, then if they don't react in a hostile manner, follow it with the rest of us.

You only stick your head out to test the waters. Any pointy objects or ray guns and you'll dipset. "Uh...well, I'm just gonna stick my head out for now", you tell her as calmly as you can. Upon seeing your head, a look of awe an confusion paints itself on her face. "It can't be", is all you hear her say.

"What can't be?"

"You", she says, pointing in your direction. "You're...human? What trickery is this?!"

Putting your hands up in surrender you try to assure her. "None. No magic, no illusion, no trickity-trick-trick. I'm human." Feeling confident, you bring the rest of you out from behind the tree. "See? All human." You even do a little spin, Tyra Banks style, in case she needs reassurance. Now you're both only feet away from each other. No trees to obscure either's vision of the other. Getting a full, up close look at the alien flower, you see that she is a 'she'. Whatever passes for female in this world, you're sure she's it. While her body is very different from that of a human's -- duh -- she appears to have all the bells and whistles that you do as a human female. You catch yourself staring and quickly avert your eyes. You're not staring to be perverted, but because this is some next level Star Wars shit!

Flower girl cocks her head slightly to the right. "You avert your eyes from me. Does my likeness trouble you?"

This chick doesn't seem to get it. Does she not understand that she's stark naked? "Oh, uh...no. It's just that you're...naked."

"What is 'na-ked'?" she coos. Is she serious? Trying hard not to accuse her of being coy, all you can do is stand there with a blank look on your face as a drop of sweat slides down the back of your head. Whatever. There is plenty of time to educate her later. For now, you want to . . .

Swear on me mum, I didn't intend for this to be comedic in any way. However, if it's popular with the readers and makes this SG more enjoyable, I'm all for it. I haven't seen too many comedy SGs. At least ones that are comedy and something else like this one. Also, let me know what colour font is easy on the eyes. It seems like blue is best, but you're the readers and your opinions matter so...let me know.

[Lermfish]

> get more information on why you can't be here. Something about a war?

"War?" You can't help asking. "What does a war have to do with me being human?"

"Long ago, humans were once commonplace in Outrealm. They were blessed by Empress Right, the Embodiment of Positive Force. Humans were known as Asuras, and they had magnificent power because of this blessing. Power that Queen Nega sought for her own nefarious machinations. She convinced some humans to join her cause. Using her momentum, a treaty was drafted by Queen Nega and Empress Right. There would be a cease-fire if humans were forbidden from entering Outrealm again. She knew what this meant, but the empress had no choice but to agree. Any humans that aren't one of Nega's found anywhere in Outrealm would be considered an act of aggression against Queen Nega's domain, and the fighting would continue."

That's a lot to take in. So, basically, you aren't allowed to be here because your presence endangers all of this place's inhabitants. You wonder if it gets worse than that. Maybe if the "good guys" find you, they won't take too kindly to you being here either and might see you as an aggressor trying to provoke conflict! They might probe you! You exhale deeply and think. What's your next move?
