A Wanderer's Game "Light Draft"

Let me tell you a story-of a man who began a savior and a destroyer. The main character's name of this story is Sato. This story begins with him on an unsuspecting train crossing the red canyons to a dome-like city. Sato Lived with his uncle until his pasting; and now, has decided to live in Lavender City. His cousin; Ren, lives in this city as well and is going to greet Sato at the Trans Station with two of her friends. While the train enters the station, a bizarre man with a black pattern mask stands on the platform above the Trans Station and makes a call; as if reporting to someone, before heading towards the trains below. As Sato starts to leave the train, a boy wearing a yellow and black cap runs into Sato then exits the train before him. Noticing the boy's wallet on the floor; Sato picks it up and runs after him, but to no avail. Then; as Sato is entering the lobby, Ren and her friends walk up to Sato to meet and talk about where he has decided to live in Lavender City.

Ren tells Sato about her life at school and introduces her two friends, Mizuki and Norio. Mizuki is a shy, teenager while Norio seems to be strict and lawful. Upon reaching Sato's new home Ren turned to Sato then began complaining about him not getting a better place to live in. The home consists of a small living room that was attached to a kitchen, one bathroom with a bathtub plus a medium size toilet and one room with a strange-square window on the farthest corner. Sato eventually convinced Ren that; for now, the house was the best option for him to live in if he wants to save up money for the future. After leaving Sato's new apartment Ren suggests that they all go to the mall and do a little celebration for Sato welcoming to Lavender City.

As they finish shopping; Sato and the others decided to eat at an indoor restaurant called La Hussa. While they eat, Ren starts talking about the TMMORPG; 'Dairiseki', but Sato has never played it before. Amazed, Norio then points to a Digi-screen that was on the corner of the restaurant and explains the average known knowledge of the 'game' saying "the fight you're watching is on a different world that everyone calls Dairiseki. After many years of changing the device that is used to enter Dairiseki, the makers decided to create an experience similar to games for social uses; why, not many people know but after awhile everyone just got used to it". On the Digi-screen were two people in a large colosseum fighting with; what seemed to Sato, magic.

Curious, Sato then asks about what Ren and her friends do in the game with Mizuki then replied that they mostly 'earn EXP' with others in there guilds. Norio then begins to explain what guilds are and how they make 'Dairiseki' more competitive in all aspects. "Guilds are a large group of people; a max of 30 that has decided to join together to help each other with life within Dairiseki and to obtain many items and/or power that you normally wouldn't be able to get on your own. There are also events that only guilds can participate in to increase both fame and fortune of all those within the winning guild during that event. There are an endless amount of examples, but the most common ones are 'Guild Wars',' King of the Hill', and 'Represent Battle Royal'." Interested, Sato decides to sign up for 'Dairiseki' at the same time as he's going to apply his transfer to the school; "Lavender Sky". After splitting up with the others then heads home; Sato walks towards nearby bus stop to sees the boy with the yellow & black cap from across the other street being chased by a group of people wearing masks. Rushing to his aid Sato dashes towards the large group then began to pursue the boy to assistance him.

Turning the corner of an alleyway the boy ran into Sato; who seemed to have been waiting, then used him to climb to the roof of the buildings then continued to sprint. Seeing the boy on the roof tops the group of masked people started to climb up the buildings as well, but was prevented by Sato. Tiles and bricks came falling down onto the group of masked people as then looked for a way around. The boy then jumped down from a two-story roof then continued to run towards the streets before being stopped by a bizarre man with the mask. Finishing a call to his boss the bizarre man pulls out a weapon then points it at the kid with the intent to kill. Soon Sato arrives next to the kid then prepares to fight the bizarre masked man. While in mid-combat, Sato proclaims that he is with an all-purpose agency called 'Powersail' and has the authority to arrest the bizarre man in the mask. Hearing the sirens, the bizarre masked man left the scene with some of the other masked assailants. More worried about the child Sato decided to not pursue the masked individuals and turned to check the boy's injuries. Once the officers arrived at the scene, Sato then asked the boy to help explain to the authority about what happened. When things finally calm down Sato gives the boy his wallet that he had dropped and introduced himself as a newcomer to Lavender City as well as being anew employee of Powersail according to his uncle's dying wish. Nervous & semi-relieved, the boy introduces himself as 'Arthur Kingsman' and said that he doesn't have a place to stay. Sato then offered Arthur to stay at his new home in return that Arthur doesn't treat him like an idiot and to also help him with 'Dairiseki'. After agreeing to the deal, they both left the scene then headed home while talking about what to eat for dinner.
