"Fuck...This is bullshit, why the hell is this happening to me right now!!" The man laided down on the bed, that was strangely comfortable to them despite its weird appearance.
"I shouldn't even be here." Covering his eyes with his arm out of pure frustration at his both fortunate yet unfortunate situation. "How did I even get here?!"
He lay there in silence for the next few minutes while trying to catch his breathe and to calm down at least a little so that they could think more clearly.
"If I think about it this could be a good thing... that is if I bloody knew what was actually going to fucking happen, buuut No. I Don't. Why couldn't it be some media inspired world like a movie, tv series or even book but even if it is I don't know it"
"Urgh, its got to be that weird kid right? There's no way that's just pure coincidence" As he thought about that child that was somehow able to get into his estate past all his runic formations. "How else would a mere child be able to get past 3 runic formations I myself created and set up. They were MEANT to detect intruders, notify me through the connection and then repel them, yet... none of them went off."
Back where he's from he was known as 'The Architect of Sigils' a title he always considered stupid, but it stuck so he just went with it (not that he could think of anything better). His knowledge, understanding, proficiency and bizarre usage of runes and what he called engraving made him a near godlike figure to fanatics and those who wished to follow his path, yet to others he was just some nutjob who risked his like each time he 'engraved' a rune into his very soul.
"I don't why I didn't try to throw the kid out the moment I saw them. I didn't even have my guard up around the kid, yet I never felt any reason to as if I was with a friend."
"Asking me 'Are you happy with your life here' was a surprisingly a difficult question as I never really knew, but I'm guessing this situation right now must mean I was truly feeling 'NO'." He was know trying to think who or more likely what that kid was.
"He wasn't a 3 dimensional being or 4th dimensional as I would've noticed pretty easily so they must be at least from the 5th dimension or higher right. I refuse to believe that they were anything less or was I maybe too complacent. Ah fuck it who cares my only concern is my family just hope their fine as that kid better make sure they don't have any issues with me gone."
"Hmm, maybe when I get back to my previous power or beyond I'll make sure to check on them as just laying here I can already feel some foreign power trying to infuse my soul, yet thanks to my soul engraved runes good luck doing that without permission... I just hope it ain't some parasitic system bullshit as that would be annoying. I just hope wherever I am and whatever power system they have doesn't require soul bonding as until I figure out what's trying to infuse my soul I can't let anything in, I learned that the hard way."
After finally getting his most important and fundamental thoughts under control he sat up and went to lo-
*Snap*
*Crash*
And the beds janky wooden legs snapped and collapsed. "Well... that happened. Urmm well I am now less confident in the current status of this place."
He moves off the now collapsed bed and goes to stand up only to look down to see a stone? Rock? Floor. Finally standing up he looks around to only to see.
"That's mirror is definitely a coincidence and wasn't placed by that kid when they put me here when they clearly can't afford a bed yet can afford a full sized mirror, yeah I ain't buying it, but I might as well see how I look as I don't feel different in terms of body as even my arms and legs look the same."
Walking over to the mirror he looks at himself. Waist length Jet-Black hair, a lightning blue left eye and Dark Amber right eye, A face most would consider handsome at least, a muscular yet agile build, a height of 6'2 he looks "The same as before huh, no differences so far except maybe my hairs grow a little can't really tell when its swaying in the wind even though there's no wind and I'm inside, but its fine."
"Thorald Arawnsson, what have you gotten yourself into, hah guess I've got to just deal with it and move on." He mumbles under his breath while still trying to fully grasp the situation.
Turning around his eyes scan the room and he raises his hand " Iᛇᚼ, ᚾᚨ (Seal Space + Hidden)" the space around him briefly stutters and then seems to freeze. "Ok now that I've do-"
*Crack*
*Crack*
before he could finished space stutters and begins to crack and then-
*Shatter*
-the sealed space shatters begore his very eyes.
"Huh, what the fuck" in disbelief he "Seal Space" Thorald in acts his runes again only to have them shatter after a few seconds again.
"My energy isn't compatible with the spaceial laws? Yet my 'Hidden' rune is still active why? Both affect space unless...
"Crush" a fracture in space opens for a moment only to quickly close seconds thereafter "The space here is stronger and more regenerative than before. So this place must have a 5th dimensional being right as Earth ascended to the 4th dimension yet the space could only repair itself to this extent after centuries yet here it was in seconds."
Following that information put Thorald a much higher alert than before as even with this foreign substance? Trying to infuse into his soul he now has to worry about a possible 5th dimensional entity that is active in this place.
"At least it doesn't seem to be living or reactive to my meddling just responding and repairing yet not rebounding. Interesting I feel a little better about not being erased from existence by a 5th dimensional entity for a simple Seal space or Crush.
After getting over his existential crisis he looks around the room to see a wardrobe and moves to open it and pick out some clothes as currently he's naked.
He opens it to and sees a plain white T-Shirt, White trousers, a Black jacket, Black shoes/Sneakers and some "Green underwear... seriously you couldn't've given me just black, white ir any other colour but this, Urghh fine."
After mumbling about "fucking green of all things" and "why green" for a minute he puts them all on and goes back ti the mirror to take a look.
"Not bad actually, though Its been a decade since I wore stuff like this so I'm probably not the best judge." After admiring his appearance in the mirror he turns to the only door in the room and sees a wallet, watch and keys on a table next to it.
Grabbing the wallet he opens it to see a Senba High Student ID. "Really, I'm a student in this world, I already had my school arc 12 years ago I don't want to do that again... But the kid still had the decency to give me an identity in this world at least. Maybe I should give it a shot at least for information or some bull excuse I can think of" Thorald looked at a bit behind the card to see what he remember as a credit card? As he only saw his parents use them in his childhood before PDA tablets became mainstream and put cards out of business due to the all-in-oneness of these tablets.
Picking up the watch he saw that it wasn't a screen display but still one with gears and hands that actually ticks. "I haven't seen these in years, cool though that I can wear this old relic"
Finally after all this time he grips the door and opens it only to be blinded by the sun beaming right into his eyes as he covers his eyes and slowly moves his arm up as his eyes adjust.
Infront of him is what he's familiar with known as a mega city though this one seemed a few years ahead of his worlds cities if count the amount of mini drones flying about down there. Mind you he's on the top of what he sees to be a mountain with at least a 1000ft drop off it a few meters in front of him.
"Maybe I won't seem as alien as I thought, at least I should be fine with the tech terms right?"
