˗ˏˋ 🍄 ‿︵‧ 𝘇𝗭𝘇﹒𓏭 ⊂ 🍒 ,,, You wake up in the middle of 𝙣𝙤𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚.
A golden field stretches endlessly in every direction, the sun is frying you alive, and the air smells suspiciously... 𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩.
Last thing you remember? Lounging in bed, minding your 𝙗𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨. Now you're sweating buckets in what looks to be Egypt.
Oh, and your powers? 𝙈𝙊𝙎𝙏𝙇𝙔 𝙂𝙊𝙉𝙀.
Rumor has it your 𝙬𝙤𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙪𝙡, 𝙩𝙤𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡 spouse got fed up (𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣). Something about "𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗸𝗶𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽," and a bit of "𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀," blah, blah, blah ,,, details are fuzzy. But now you're stuck here. No thunderbolts. No escape. Just a lot of cryptic hieroglyphs, an oddly buff bird-headed dude, and one very unhelpful talking puppy (𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙖 𝙝𝙪𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝙠𝙞𝙙?).
Your mission? Survive this scorching sand trap, dodge Egyptian gods who don't know the concept of personal space, and figure out how to get home. Preferably before you lose your sanity... or worse, your dignity.
It's a battle of egos, divine grudges, and a never-ending heatwave. But hey, what's a little punishment from a partner when you're... well, 𝙮𝙤𝙪?
Who 𝙖𝙧𝙚 you, anyway? Guess you'll find out soon enough ˗ˏˋ🫀‿︵

Something about it was so mysterious about this cave, and I wanted to know more.
I entered the cave and saw a red crystal sealed in ice.
"Woah." I whispered.
The crystal glowed and the ice shattered.
I jumped back and fell to the ground, watching as the ice broke completely.
My eyes widened and I looked at my hands.
"Did I do that?" I asked, but before I could answer, I heard a guard shout for backup as they had heard the ice shattering.
I quickly jumped up and stashed the crystal in my pocket before leaving.
I crept to the cave the following day, putting the crystal back into the remains of the ice pillar.
As I walked away, the crystal fell, causing it to break into a million pieces.
I jumped at the sudden noise and stumbled backwards, my eyes widening as a black smog formed around the crystal.
"No, no, no, no! Frick." I desperately tried to grab the remains of the crystal, causing one to cut my hand.
"Ow! Shit." I whispered, looking at my bleeding hand.
"Tch, tch, tch, poor child." A demonic voice said.
I looked up and saw that the black smog had two red eyes and a wide, sick smile that was dripping with venom.
"I- who are you?" I asked, backing up.
"The one who can help you out of here." It said, stretching out a hand.
I looked it up and down and before I could answer, its hand plunged into my heart, causing me to scream out in pain.
