Eva
The girl was excited. Finally, she had some free time. And with free time came Crossworlds, easily the greatest game ever created. Even the glitch with her avatar's speech synchronization wasn't enough to mute her excitement tonight, because tonight she was finally going to take on Zir'vitar Temple. Her group of friends had been gearing up to challenge the dungeon all week and tonight was when they were finally putting all that gear to use. Giddily, she logged into the game. She felt the familiar sensation of instant matter forming her avatar, each of her senses slowly coming online. Her sight came last, her mind filled with anticipation for the excited looks her friends would share.
But when she opened her eyes, she didn't find herself in CrossWorlds, or at least not any part of it she recognized. A recording played for her, but it didn't make any sense. This had to be some kind of special event or something, right? But where did all this multiverse stuff come from, what did it have to do with CrossWorlds? Towards the end, the reality of it all began to sink in. She wasn't conquering a dungeon with her friends tonight. But why her? There were much better players in CrossWorlds that would be far more suited to the task than she. The only thing special about her was that her avatar couldn't talk right, surely that couldn't be what the multiverse wanted from her? Maybe it mistook her for some other broken avatar that was actually the most important player in the whole game. Whatever the case, she was here now, and it sounded like she was stuck.
Her avatar dematerialized for a moment, reappearing in a dreary place next to a strange tall avatar. There were a bunch of wrecked boats nearby, drawing her attention momentarily. No, one thing at a time. This must have been the first place the multiverse doctor wanted her to help fix. It definitely needed a lot of fixing. It seemed likely the tall avatar was also here to fix things, so she decided to introduce herself. Although this wasn't the game, she was still using her speech-impaired avatar, meaning she had no way to give her proper name. It seemed she would be stuck as Eva for the foreseeable future. Eva approached the tall avatar, announcing her presence by cheerfully calling out the first word Sergey had hard-coded into her avatar, "Hi!"
