It happened in a flash, as everyone were suddenly sucked inside of a void, and transported completely elsewhere. And not only that, if they could had been transported together, things might had been easier to deal with, but they were separated.
"Huh? What's going on in here?" Partner, who was clueless, wondered, glancing into the dark world.

It resembled a single man cloaked on black robes, holding a small, black crystal staff imbue with a small dark blue jewel…
"Who are you?! How did you get us in here?!" Emeraldine asked furiously.
