A woman approaches you, she has flowing hair of black and white, with kind eyes she outstretchs a hand to you in the middle of her palm a small heart lays glowing.
You who have been hiding in the darkness with no form or life or your own. Take this and become one of the living. Picture in your mind what you want to look like and give your hopes and dreams form.

Where am I? What am I? I'm not even sure myself...its a strange phenomenon being nothingness. Everything is black but not empty, this place is full of darkness. But this feeling of loneliness is what made me scared. Am I alone?
What happened next appeared like a blur, someone appoarched me with their arm outstretched. It was a woman with beautiful hair and eyes, she held in her outstretched palm something. As I leaned forward, I saw a little heart red and black, glowing with light it lit up the surrounding area with color. I didn't understand what 'color' was but something came to me, memories, they were memories...this was what I was searching for. I took the little heart silently and opened my mouth to speak but she was no longer there...no, I was no longer in the darkness.
There before me was a...'beach'...the word came into my mind. The 'sun' shined brightly, I shrank back from the sun's light and squinted my eyes to see. Even though I disliked the darkness, I felt comfortable there, this new place was akward. Walking backwards, I stepped on the edge and nearly fell into a pool. The waterfall on the other end splashed light sprinkles of 'water' upon my face as I turned around.
Slowly bending down, I stared at myself. My hair was 'silver' lighter than black, darker than light, the ends barely touching my shoulder. My skin was 'cream' with a tint of 'tan'. One of my eye was the color of the 'night' and blend of 'black' and 'purple' but the left was 'golden' like the sun. I can't really describe my 'clothing' but at least they were comfortable, no words came to my mind as I stared at them. Who am I? I felt myself mouth the words, then heard them with my own ears. My voice was deep but not so much as an 'adult.'
I am Kyru

You can only remember falling, for what seemed like an eternity through pitch black surroundings. You feel have awake, as if falling down a rabbit hole this must be a dream. But soon as if gravity decided to stop playing with you, your legs move towards the ground and you land. Looking this way and that you see only more blackness.
Don't be afraid the door is still shut. . . Words seem to appear in your mind you are startled but not afraid, the voice is ageless, sexless. As if the words were spoken directly into your thoughts.
There is so much to do and so little time. . .walk forward. . . as if against your will you take a step and then notice two doors identical to each other side by side. You look around and see nothing else.
Which door will you choose? One leads to the light, the other to darkness . . .Only you can decide. . . It is as if the voice is trying to encourage you to make a decision, but there is nothing to indicate which door will lead where. Taking a breath you reach out to grasp the door handle and turn the knob.
Please indicate which door you open in a rp response. There is 2 a left and a right one. There is nothing to indicate which will lead where. When you respond you will then be either contacted by Pales or Jayoku.

I was back, back in the darkness, back in the womb that I was born from. This time the world was different, this time there was a way out. Two doors stood before me, the voice had said one lead the light, the other, darkness. Which to choose and open. My 'heart' pounded in my chest. What will happen when the wrong door is opened? I walked slowly towards the right door, my hand trembled as I turned the knob and pulled. Whatever waits beyond is left to fate and fate alone.

Maeko was bored, damned bored even. She was over by the pedistal, dusting it off. Soon another decision would be made, an important one ... She felt anyways. She stopped during her dusting flicking her amethyst gaze over to the door. Maeko disappeared from her prior spot to her waiting spot with a soft chime sound. The scene was quite poetic really. A young woman dressed in white with silver-white hair. It was almost like she was an angel...
Upon gazing at the young boy she blinked a bit, he had something about him that was slightly different to him, something familiar perhaps? She shook her head, silvery hair splaying this way and that before regathering composure and wearing a warm, and somewhat flirty smile.
"Hello, I am Maeko. I am guardian of the Light." She made her introduction and quietly waited for the boy to make his. She seemed paitent and friendly.

So the door had led him to light, Kryu thought to himself half amused. This was definitly an unexpected turn of events. Asides from the Guardian of Light being completely different from what was imagined, he had also half expected to be blinded or dead if he did encounter it. Afterall, he had been born from darkness...
"My...name is Kyru," the boy said firmly, trying to reassure himself at the same time seeming confident. He brushed a strand of hair from his right eye, the golden one, "...and I don't know what I am."
Pales
She gave a small shrug, "Don't try to worry yourself on that too much." Is all she said in reply. She wandered over to the pedistal and gave it a nudge with her boot, and an array of items appeared, covered in shadow.
"As you well know, your destiny or fate is often up to you. You have to make decisions." She wrinkles her nose, "It isn't my job to bring you into the light. I am just here to protect the light, as well as to ... prod individuals such as yourself into yet another decision."
She went into an almost trance like state her hand lifting up to the pedistal. "Which power do you seek, young Kyru? Do you wish to shield others and be a guardian?" The shield first became visible, "Do you wish to use the mystical powers of magic that reside in just any vien?" The wand became visible after the shield, "Or do you wish to take up the sword and fight as a warrior?" The sword became visible and she went out of her trance and stared at the boy, "Choose wisely as you may only pick once...It may help you find your purpose and thus finding what you are if you insist."

Kyru stumbled back a few steps surprised. The meanings of each item engraved in his mind. Just like before, he would have to choose and not just between two like before, but three. Each held a different fate, a different destiny. Now he'd only have to choose...again.
Man...I hate choices, he thought to himself silently. So the light and the dark are alike in a way. They've both promted him forward with their riddles. They're both one and the same. He frowned slightly as he walked forward considering each item.
The shield...the Guardian. What had he to guard? He had been born into this world with nothing. He had nothing guard, nothing to protect. What use was a shield to him?
The wand...the Mystic. 'Magic,' the word appeared in his mind. Power, the power to save, the power to destroy. What had he to save? To destroy? His memories were scatter, not lost. They didn't need to be saved, just found. And 'destroy' images appeared in his mind, sad and probably best forgotten but they've returned. No, he didn't need anything that would destroy.
The sword...the Warrior. Whatever lays ahead, he was ready for...he'll fight. Yes, he'll fight to pave a road through this treacherous terrain, his road, his destiny, his fate.
"I choose the sword," Kyru walked forward and took up the weapon, his fate was sealed.
Pales
Maeko nodded and crossed her arms over her chest, looking almost thoughtful, "Your path, like anyone elses' will be difficult. Just remember, if you need help don't be afraid to ask it of your friends. Yes, you two will make friends where you are going. It'll be hard not to." She gave a light grin and a wink, "We will meet again. I am sure of it."
By this time the other items had disappeared as well as the sword.
"Don't worry. You will have a fine weapon of your own. One meant for a determined warrior such as yourself." The tone of her voice was sincere, not mocking. "Perhaps I will present one to you at a later date. I specialize in such things."
With that she waved at him, "Good luck." Then she faded from her view, though it was more like she disappeared from hers. She turned her back to the spot where he was and seemed to contemplate...
Suddenly, the next thing the boy knew he was ankle deep in the waters of destiny island. The chill seemed to be what woke him from the supposid daze he was suddenly in. Whatever that was it seemed like a dream...

Kyru stood there, still for a moment, then turned around in a full circle. Where am I? This was the second time he had asked this question. At least it felt like the second time. And for a foreboding thought, he believed he'd be asking that question a lot.
He slowly walked towards the shore, the sun bathing down his back drying his shirt and shorts. He had been dreaming...yes...in his dream, there had been a strange lady...yes, the Guardian of Light! And a choice between three items or something of such. What did it all mean?
Sitting down on the sandy shore he pondered the questions, something suddenly fell out from a side pocket. It was the heart, the little red heart the first woman had given him. This had led him to seek his memories.
He looked up at the sun, screening his eyes with a hand so as the light doesn't directly shine at his face. Then he looked out towards the ocean. The sky and ocean stretch outwards towards one line, the place felt calm and peaceful. What is this place? No memories appeared in his mind. He hadn't been here before...
