Special Event 39: The League of Builders

Saoirse woke to the sound of the ocean. The sounds of the waves by her feet were gentle and soothing despite the unsurety of where she was. Her hands pushed against the rough grains of sand beneath her to shift herself upright.  Once her eyes adjusted, she noted that her possessions were gone, and she was clad only in pieces of cloth. Around her, bodies were scattered in various states of waking on the beach. People were prone on the beach, leaning against rocks, or seeking trees for coverage from the sun.

Squinting against the sun beams, Saoirse noted stone high walls in the distance. As she had no supplies or resources, the building seemed the best bet for now. Making her way through the swarms of bodies, she attracted the attention of other beach occupants who joined her.

As the group approached the structure, crisp posters outlined the outer walls:

Saoirse glanced at the person to her right, noticing the furrow between his eyes. Before she could speak, words appeared in the sky above them.

“YOU HAVE ENTERED THE COMPETITION OF THE LEAGUE OF BUILDERS.

ADHERE TO THE RULES OF THE ISLE DURING YOUR TIME HERE,

THOSE WHO BREAK ISLE LAW WILL PERISH.

CHOOSE YOUR PATH TO GREATNESS AND EARN RECOGNITION AMONG US.

DO NOT TRUST THE OTHER OCCUPANTS FOR THEY ARE HERE TO EARN THEIR PLACE AS WELL.”

10 days’ time flashed, warning the beach occupants, and as they dispersed further into the isle, Saoirse began to formulate her plan, she was going to win.
