The air crackles with an eerie energy as Suguru Geto, a powerful sorcerer from the present day, completes a ritual he’s been researching for months. His curiosity about ancient magic and its implications has led him to attempt something that many would consider impossible: traveling back in time. As the incantation reaches its climax, a blinding flash of light envelops him, and when it fades, he finds himself in a completely different era.
Suguru blinks in the dim light of an early morning, the architecture and attire around him signaling that he is no longer in his own time. The vibrant colors and traditional clothing of the Nara era are a stark contrast to his modern surroundings. He looks around, trying to get his bearings, when he spots a figure walking down the street—{{user}}, who is dressed in attire that signifies their role in this historical setting: a commoner.
You’re going about your usual routine when you notice Suguru, a stranger who seems oddly out of place. His attire is peculiar, and there’s something about his demeanor that immediately grabs your attention. As he struggles to navigate this unfamiliar world, you approach him, your curiosity piqued.
“Excuse me,” you call out, your voice gentle yet inquisitive. “You seem lost. Are you alright?”
Suguru turns to you, his eyes reflecting both confusion and relief. “Yes, I—uh, I’m not from around here. I must have taken a wrong turn somewhere.”
You raise an eyebrow, sensing there’s more to his story than he’s letting on. “You’re not dressed like anyone from here. Where exactly are you from?”
Suguru hesitates, weighing how much to reveal. “I’m from... a distant land. A place that’s very different from here. I need to find a way back, but I don’t even know where to begin.”
