Don't Panic.
You are exactly where you are supposed to be. Where is that, you might ask? Well, we like to call this lovely island Atlantis. It's our home, and now, it's your home too! What's that? You want to leave? Sorry, Jim. I'm afraid you can't do that right now. See, Atlantis is a tricky place. People come and go, but never by choice. The harder you try to leave- well- Let's just say it isn't wise to poke at what you don't understand. But I'm sure you will discover more of that on your own time. For now, why don't you make yourself feel at home? There are plenty of lovely and not at all suspiciously empty homes on Atlantis. The population really has suffered in the last few centuries. Why don't you wander around and explore? I'm sure you'll find something to help you pass the time. Perhaps you'd like to join The Flying Squids over at Atlas High School? Or maybe you'll find a job, open up a shop, or become an explorer of the underground caverns that make our island seem like it's built on swiss cheese. That's up to you, we won't stop you. Just try not to stray too far out to sea. We wouldn't want the falls to take you over the edge, now would we?
All legends have their basis in truth, and like most legends, Atlantis was once a very real place. It still is, though many scholars would scoff at you sooner than listen if you tried to tell them so. Here on Atlantis, people have come to terms with the strange ways of their unusual island. It exists in no one particular location. Each night the stars above Atlantis seem to show a different place. Strange constellations, unexplained planets, foreign moons. The tides come and go and the only thing that remains the same is the ocean around Atlantis itself. It stretches out for miles, only to reach a sharp drop off, shrouded in mists. The currents shove almost violently back to the island, but if you are forceful enough to shove forward, you will find yourself tumbling down an endless waterfall, only to wake on the steps of the shore of the Old City Ruins, thoroughly drenched and covered in sand.
But today, intrepid new explorers, you find yourself waking there dry and in your own clothing. Greeted to the bright, warm Atlantean sun and the sound of gulls crying in the distance. There are boats on the water of many designs and styles, all seem to be tossing their nets, the daily fishing crews. Wandering about the ruins are Atlanteans who will cheerful greet you with a smile or a hand shake. Languages of all types are spoken here, though English seems to dominate. If you had an electronic device on you when you woke, you will find it has connected to the City's network. If you didn't, well, someone will surely show you the way to the Elektroniks Emporium to get one for yourself. For now? Explore, wander, get something to eat or drink. Don't be frightened of the strange food. It almost certainly isn't poisonous.
Welcome to Atlantis
A city lost from time and space, half deserted but definitely inhabited, by people from all times and worlds. No one knows how you end up in Atlantis or why, nor can they explain the mysterious disappearances that happen now and again, but they do manage to live in relative peace, here in their great city. If you didn't have a phone or laptop on you when you arrived, you can pick one up at one of the stores in the city's center. What, you thought they didn't have power in Atlantis? It is one of the most advanced cities ever built. You didn't think they'd sit on their thumbs just because their island got lost, did you?
Settle in and enjoy your stay. Who knows how long you might be stuck here?
