Welcome aboard to the Arcadia! This will be your travel vessel through the Astral Seas. As you board the ship, you will see the familiar (or unfamiliar) faces of the Crew.

• Introduce yourself or catch up with them in Prompt #2!

As you traverse the Astral Sea, Miss Darcy the Diplomat, approaches you with a soft smile. Knowing that the Astral Sea is filled with mystical unknown things, she served as your tour guide, pointing and describing the things you passed by:

• The Creatures of Eris - Beasts with incorporeal bodies traverse alongside the Arcadia with bodies resembling the celestial entities surrounding them. While some resembled creatures that could be compared to the ones on Earth, others were species that you had never seen in your life. They are called the Creatures of Eris because despite being known as the goddess of strife and discord, Eris had a fondness for beasts. They are docile now, but when called upon their goddess, they serve as beasts of combat.

• The Fragments - Ruins of past dimensions are seen floating throughout the Astral Sea. Once bearing life and striving civilizations, they are now nothing more than obstacles the Arcadia have to dodge. Shattered fragments float and slowly drift between the main body. With enough imagination, maybe you can picture the glory of what it used to be.

Depict your traveler sailing through Astral Space. What is their reaction? What do they see in the sea of memories?

Catch up with the small, yet intrepid crew of the Arcadia. Whether you've sailed with them before or this is your first time aboard, make sure to check in and get to know your hosts on this astral sea voyage.

They've got information for you too, having been the first to discover these lasting memories, and even trekked inside a couple of them.

• Every crewmate has something different to tell you.

  • • Captain Everard Padlock - The Captain

      • • You will find him at the helm of the ship, he'll strongly remind you that these are just memories. The people might seem real, and you can interact with them, but it's just a memory and you can't change what happens.

    • Miss Darcy - The Diplomat

      • • You will find her in her study, going over notes of her team's encounters. She will give you the heads up that if you somehow die within the memory, you'll be shunted out of it, and it will be forever closed to you.

    • Tikva - The Medic

      • • You will find him restocking the food and medical supplies. He'll mention to you that these memory rifts are very uncommon, and the fact so many have been found in such a short time is quite concerning. He hopes you'll be able to help get to the bottom of this.

Depict your traveler interacting with one or more of The Arcadia crew. Are you catching up from the last time you were here? Newly meeting? Or is it just business?

It is not an entirely rare sight to see large ruins, leftover of worlds long gone among the endless sea of stars, the beings that inhabit the Astral Sea making use of them, giving them a new purpose. The memories, however, were described to you as looking like large tears, rips on the fabric of the Astral Sea, and peering into them, even from the outside, you notice movement, as if they're replaying a movie within it. 

The large rips are spread all around ruins of what looks like a floating city, hints of its magnificence still present in what once was. Once you've notice them, alert the crew to stop the Arcadia before you drive past it.

Depict your traveler's reaction to seeing the rips and the memories replay from outside. What's their first impression ? Is there anything within the ruins or the memories that catches their eye ? 

As you enter a memory, you are welcomed by majestic and elegant architecture, clean and classy, marble, porcelain and gold decorate every place you go to, and the more you explore, you realize the place you are in, is a city floating in between the clouds. The inhabitants of this world seem full of divine light, carrying a symbol of one deity or another, some, you notice, have their bodies half made of marble, porcelain or wax, fitting with larger winged figures, mimicking their appearance. 

Looking down the edge of the floating citadel you find yourself on, you realize there is more down below, the ground looks dark, places where the light of the divine does not seem to reach. The dark wastelands below look dangerous, but those may also contain clues to follow, people to find... And soon, just like in a memory, an event starts unfolding and you find yourself playing a part in it too...

Depict your traveler stepping into one of the memories. At what point in time did the rift led them to ? Were they welcomed to the safety of the floating citadels or the dangers of the dark wasteland below ?
