First True Gate
{ Native Contenders have entered the Encroachment Center… }
Although the Gate was only big enough for one or two people to step in, entering in batches didn't cause Aurora's team to split up. They were still together inside.
However, the space they were in didn't look like any other Gate that they went to before. It was an enclosed space filled with the same dreadful green that they saw outside.
It was rectangular in shape like an empty room, a very small one. Unfortunately, before anyone could panic or complain about the start, an eerie voice was transmitted into everyone's ears.
"Contend-"
The brown-haired girl was about to blurt out the first curious word she heard… One that she didn't get to finish.
{ Preparing Challenges… 10 Challengers acknowledged. }
This was a first. Aside from exchanging words amongst themselves, Aurora's team had never experienced any kind of written communication, let alone hear a voice.
