The Center Plaza, as it's name suggests, is right in the center of the enormous garden. It's a raised platform surrounding a circular waterfall, and within the center of the wall of water seems to be a large glowing crystal radiating magical power.
There are benches and tables made of stone scattered around, and lighting provided by crystals that glowed softly, giving an almost romantic effect.
The main events of the Meta are held here, and makes a good communal gathering ground for those exploring the Garden and it's islands.

Fah'lyn had watched a number of other boys disappear into the backroom and not return. Gathering some courage the fox had made his way into the back room where he discovered the portal. After a few minutes of debate the fox had stepped though and discovered the center plaza. He had taken some time to venture around and look at each of the surrounding island but had not ventured to any of them. Instead he returned to the shop via the portal and began to cook.
Finding a tray cart the boy loaded it up with different food dishes and desserts before returning to the center plaza via the portal. Glancing around he took in the five surrounding islands again before picking a centralized table and beginning to set up the food he had prepared. He assumed even more would come to explore the islands and so he was determined to make sure every one had enough to eat. Smiling at his display he left the table of food and headed to explore the garden's around him. Every once in a while glancing back at his table to make sure nothing got low food wise.

[[copies Wataame's entry into the central plaza for here as well xD]]
Wataame had been absent from the shop for a few days. He was needless to say surprised when he returned to see a large gathering of people in the back of the shop. It seemed quite the commotion so he moved to investigate. He stared in shock at the more-or-less portal thing that had opened in the back room. His tails flared out behind him as he watched uneasily. People were choosing to go through the doorway. Was it really safe? He inched forward after them, slowly making his way to where the others were. This place....it was so mysterious and enchanting even. He was shocked to see the creatures Loc and Kii as well. What was this place exactly? He gazed around, looking for someone to follow. He called out nervously, "u-uh anyone want a traveling partner...I mean for exploration purposes?"
-----------
Just then Wataame noticed the goodies Fah had provided. Trying not to drool and get distracted by the delicious food, he finally decided to snag a few treats and keep them in his kimono sleeves just in case he wanted them later, before he forced himself to continue on in search of a travel buddy.

Fah circled the garden and water fountain before returning to the table he had set up. Looking around he spotted Wataame and gave the other boy a small wave. " Hello Wataame. I see you found this place as well. Its it so weird? I though just being in the shop was abit frightening but here I feel both frightened and very much at home. Its odd." Looking at the table Fah took note of the things Wataame had taken and decided for now it wasn't enough to bother with refilling anything. Stepping up to the table himself, Fah grabbed a simple chicken breast sandwich he had made and added some cheese and lettuce to it before starting to eat. " Its really pretty around here though. Some of the island look rather nice too"

Wataame greeted Fah with a smile. "Thank you for providing the food. Your cooking is amazing," he complimented as he looked around the area. "You're right. This place is...like something out of a dream isn't it? I can't believe it was in the back of the shop..." His gaze went from the fountain to the glowing crystal inside. "It's ...mysterious. I was nervous coming here, but at the same time, now that I'm here, I'm beginning to relax a bit. I'm very tempted to explore just to see the sights. Umm....if you want....care to join me?" the fox blushed a little at the question. It's not like he was asking Fah on a 'date' or anything. >> "Maybe we'll find something if we go to one of the islands?" he added. "Some of the others must already be there now."
But which island would he end up choosing to explore? So many choices. And they all seemed intriguing in their own ways.

Fah nodded as he listened to the other boy. He had to agree it did feel as if though it were something he had dreamed of for a long time. " It does feel like a dream one I even had back in my old home. I'd love to explore some of the islands. I saw umm well I guess he didn't have a name he remembered but Rat and I think his name is Brenton on one island and a few of the other islands had others on them as well." Fah blushed gently looking over the table of food again as he took a few more bites of his sandwich. " Thank you, I was talking with another boy I met in the shop about it and maybe being a chef? Its sounded like a very nice idea I do love to cook."
Fah smiled at the other boy before looking at the surrounding islands then back to the portal. " I don't think we're in the shop any more at all here.. I think we got like...teleported here? I mean its so different from earth?"

Wataame nodded as he listened to Fah speak. "Dreams...." he said, "I've always found them fascinating. You can visit all kinds of places in dreams..." He tilted his head to the side as if in deep thought then, until Fah mentioned becoming a chef. "Ah! That's a brilliant idea!" He replied, his eyes lighting up. "You would be a most excellent chef, of that I'm certain."
Unable to resist now that they were talking about it, he pulled a cookie from his sleeve and began munching. He repeated the names that Fah had mentioned. "Rat? Brenton? Hmm..I'm not sure I've ever met them before. I hope they are fairing well though in this strange place. Now that you mention it...." he tapped his chin thoughtfully. "You're right. We were probably teleported. That would make the most sense. It makes me wonder, what beings are capable of that sort of thing. Those critters...Loc and Kii...mentioned finding a set and bringing it back to them. Maybe then they will fill us in on what is going on neh? But...which island to start with? Do you have any preferences?"

Fah smiled he really was starting to like the idea of becoming a chef, cooking for others was one of the few duties he had never grown tired of at any point in his old home. " Rat seemed to have memory lose, well him and several other boys they were all sleeping couch before they woke up and went into the back room of the shop. I think one of them opened the portal to this place." Fah took another moment to peer around the center plaza and off toward each of the island sounding it. " I went up to each island though I did not go onto any of them. Each of the islands seems very different from the rest." Pointing to the island of Dark, the boy shuddered a bit. " That ones seem very creepy not necessarily in a bad way but I don't think I'd want to go there with out a lot of others with me"
Considering the other islands Fah shrugged a bit. " I'm not sure all the other islands seem rather nice. Maybe the charcoal-y one? It seems to be more brightly light then some of the others it would probably make looking for a key and lock easiest? And I feel like I could run around forever there"

Kennith had been out of the shop for a wail after his run in with two 'demons' and a cat. His his ear was not fully healed and he was ready for another round with any of his three friends. However when he ventured into the shop that day there did not seem to be anyone around. It was rather strange to the fox boy he could smell all sorts of scents from people who had been by recently and his large plush ears could hear a noise that he had never heard before and whispering from the back of the shop.
Always one for a good surprise the pink and white fox made his way towards the back of the shop just in time to see a figure step through, what Kennith could only describe as a portal. He had never see. On before in his life and it was a rather exciting concept so without any hesitation the artic fox stepped through the portal.
Once on the other side he gave a whistle at the amazing sight that met him. There was so much to see. He grinned brightly trying to take everything in. He could see a few faces of people he had glanced at in the shop and figures of individuals he had not recollection of. "So everyone was here huh? No fun not inviting me..."he mumbled to himself with a giggle. He was rather looking forward to exploring here. Stealing another glance around and not recognizing any sign of someone he might already know he thought about where the few friends he already had might be. There were largest groups or what looked like them any way on some of the islands connected to the main garden but there were some with what appear to be no life or movement. One sad and eery looking island lay to the lower right direction of the fountain. Looked at the black and dead grass and the tomb stone like stones sent a shiver down his spine and lit a cold fire of excitement in his stomach. It reminded him of feelings he had ground up with and strangly of his newest friends. So with one more glacé at the other islands Kennith made his way down towards the Island of Dark

Wataame took what Fah had to say into deep consideration. "Memory loss? That's very strange..." he trailed off, thinking it over. "So you went up to each island, but didn't go in?" Wataame was kind of glad that Fah hadn't disappeared on his own, though he wouldn't say it aloud. He was happy that he would get the chance to explore with the other fox.
When Fah gestured at the Dark island, Wataame couldn't help but agree that he would prefer to go to Dark Island in a group. "Maybe... we'll save that island for later," he replied. He also had no desire to go anywhere that would make Fah feel uneasy.
"Yes, I think Fire Island looks much better to investigate. It's definitely lit up quite nicely. Just looking at it makes me feel a little more energetic too. So if you want, we can start there?" He smiled and began moving toward Fire Island.
((if you want you can post again here following and then we can both post on Fire Island thread? I think that'd work. xD))

Fah nodded his head in agreement. " Lets go to the fire island then." Looking over the table one more time, the fox moved to refill some of the plates with extras he had brought on the tray cart. Then took out a small plastic bag and gathered a few bit of food to take with him to the fire island He assumed even if he felt energetic at the fire island he might need fuel to help his body keep going. Wrinkling his nose he moved again to the cart and took out several bottles of water adding them to his bag as well. Nodding to himself he turned and followed after Wataame toward the fire island.
