Chapter One: Welcome to Varia, bisque
Next -> 1.a
Morning, Varia Leader's Office, Fifth Floor, Varia HQ
"Leader, I am excited to inform you that recently we had an influx of new recruits. Most have arrived already and await their orientation."
"... Excellent! I have been so busy dealing with our latest client. They are such a nightmare to please..."
The leader and the second-in-command officer of Varia were sitting on a couch sipping coffee. The leader was half-sprawled on their side of the couch. It had been another sleepless night and strewn in the coffee table in front of them was a large unfinished map.
Risuna Tiolee, Second-in-Command, Varia
"Leader, perhaps you should rest." Risuna offered, "I will handle their orientations if you would like."
Beginning to snore, the leader didn't hear a word. With an amused smile, Risuna covered the leader up with a nearby blanket and left the office. "Hm... I have the perfect idea..." she said to no one in particular.
Leaving the guarded area on the fifth floor of Varia headquarters reserved only for officers, Risuna nodded to each of the guards and strolled down the stairs. The circular stairs of Varia were grand and elegant in design. The length of each marble step was just right, allowing for a comfortable smooth gliding descent of even the most clumsy. Reaching the third floor, which housed the auditorium, Risuna asked a nearby staff member to ready the auditorium for a small audience.
"Also, please bring a magic board and the lottery set." She added. The staff member immediately departed to accomplish his orders.
Clasping her hands together in front of her, Risuna chuckled ominously.

Morning, Lobby, Main Floor, Varia HQ
The new recruits of Varia were lounging around the main lobby. As usual, the place was filled with tourists, clients, and other affiliates to the organization. While each of the recruits were accepted into the organization, they were not officially members until they had gone through orientation. The process of orientation for Varia has been a secret well-kept, so none of them knew what was in store for them.
Suddenly, a group of staff members descended from the stairs and approached each of the new recruits respectively. The eerie thing was that each of those staff members were exactly identical in clothing as well as physical characteristics. What transcended even that creepiness was the fact that they all began speaking to their respective recruits in perfect unison.
"Welcome To Varia. Please Follow Me To Begin Your Orientation. Your Belongings Will Be Handled And Brought To Your Rooms. Please Part With Them Now And Only Bring Your Weapons Or Tools."
With that, each staff member led the new recruits up the stairs and into the auditorium. Upon reaching the auditorium, the staff members walked into each other and melded into one. Smiling, the staff member beckoned them in.
The auditorium was huge and empty. The new recruits didn't even pass a dozen, so each step echoed and the sheer space made everyone feel even smaller. Reaching the front, they all chose their seats and sat down.
At this point, Risuna Tiolee entered from stage left and smiled darkly at each of the new recruits. "I'm sure you are tired from your journey here, so please relax as I restore your vitality." Having said that, she muttered a spell and sent bright yellow orbs of light towards each of the recruits. "You should be feeling much fresher now... So! We shall begin orientation swiftly. I am Risuna Tiolee, director at Varia Exploration and Acquisition Services. Normally... we would conduct orientation one-to-one, but at the moment, most of the officers are busy with their respective missions, and so only I am available. Since time is of essence, orientation will be quite unorthodox today."
Grinning, Risuna motioned for the magic board to be wheeled out, along with a box. Muttering another spell, she aimed it at the magic board and suddenly, writing appeared on it:
Cynder - 1
Wade Roscoe - 1
Odehn - 2
Sophia Gardinell - 2
Eva Folchart - 3
Gillian Smith - 3
Kendric Silvers - 4
Nylau - 4
Morgan Droller - 5
Ophevla - 5
"Well, well! The duos have been decided. More shall be explained later, but find your partner with the same number assigned and get to know them. You are now free to explore headquarters. I will begin preparations and send staff members to locate and notify you when the next part of orientation is ready."
Risuna walked off stage and out of the auditorium, leaving the new recruits to themselves.
