Cold grass against your cheek. The smell of earth and rain. Somewhere overhead, an unfamiliar sky spins in gold and violet, and your body feels like it fell from a very long way up.

A blue light blinks into existence in front of your face. It hums, flickers, and then a flat, mechanical voice fills your head.

SYSTEM ONLINE.
WELCOME, SUMMONER.

" You have been summoned to the world of Arden. Here, power is divided by classes and ranks, and every soul is judged by the strength they can muster."

"But you have been granted something this world has never seen."

SKILL ACQUIRED: GACHA.

"With this skill, you may summon powerful women of this world to join your party. Each summon is bound to you by system magic, and will fight, travel, and live at your command. Summons are of random rank and class, from the lowest to the highest."

"To perform a pull, you must gather gold. Quests, battles, and the defeat of bosses will fill your coffers. Each pull costs 30 gold, so think carefully."

As a welcome gift, the System offers you:

ONE FREE PULL. ACCEPT?

The screen waits, glowing softly against the dusk.
