Miandra Lucosia was a normal teen, well, except for the fact that she was a geeky nerd that loved games, anime and the like. She had very plain looks, brown hair, and brown eyes, with square rimmed glasses and a small frame, with super pale skin.
Like any other teen, Miandra was bored with life as it was, always trying to find something to fill the void of boredom. Summer just made that worse because school was out, though it did mean that she was able to pick up extra hours at work. Which is what Miandra did, because she wanted a set of VR goggles. There was a game coming out that she really wanted to try, boasting to be one of the best immersion games of the century.
Today was finally going to be the day that she got the goggles, because she had just got her most recent check deposited the day before. Excitedly, she headed to the game store that she always visited. Skipping happily, purse in hand as she went down the street. It was evening, and she was alone like always. Things seemed normal to her, though maybe a bit chilly for summer.
Miandra took her time, she knew that the store was going to be open for a few more hours and she was sure the had some goggles in stock, she had checked just the day before, seeing as she didn't really have much else to do.
When she finally made it to the game store she was surprised to see a new face behind the counter. The thing that threw her off was the erie vibe they gave off. Like if she tried to turn back now, she was going to be shot in the back. She gave a nervous laugh and waved at the man before moving to find the goggles.
"Ma'am"
The voice was deep, and was that an echo? No she must have been imagining things.
"I don't need help thank you." She tried to say in a cheery voice. Though it was shaking. Man did this guy make her feel nervous. And not in the light and fun way.
"I didn't think you did. I was told to look for you if you came in today. They gave me a pretty good description, and I'm sure it was you they were talking about."
She frowned and looked to the man. His voice still gave her this chills. "Look for me? Why?"
"Because they said a special product came in and that you'd want it with your purchase." He holds up what looks like a box set with a full VR set with gloves, suit and even the game that she'd wanted.
She looked at him confused. "But I thought that game didn't come out til..."
"Next month? That was a miss print in our ledger apparently. We got some in today." He smirked.
She could feel sweat rolling down her neck. Something about this felt all wrong, but her want for the game eventually overran the need for safety. She hurried over to the counter and looked at the box, looking at the price and gulping. It was much more than she was planning on spending this day. But it was everything that she needed.
"Go on, you can touch the box." He smiled at her. "It's very... real." There was a weird emphasis on the word real.
But at this point, Miandra didn't pay any mind to it. She was enthralled, and her hand reached out to the box. That was when she knew it was too late, the man was cackling. "Fulfill your prophecy... Child of Water.. if you can."
Her vision blurred and she watched as her body got sucked into the box, she tried to scream but nothing came out as she seemed to fall through darkness. Hitting water and she kept falling, or at least she thought she did. Until she realized that now she was floating, her world flipping around her. She'd just... entered a world from the bottom of a lake? She started swimming up, so that she could breath.
Breaking the surface, she gasped for air, only to yelp when she heard a surprised scream in a foreign language? Elvish? She blinked and looked around. Seeing a woman blathering and pointing at her, cloaked in white and a confused look on her face.
