Dimensional Descent

Leonel and Aina ran into their first awkward situation quite quickly. Almost comically so.

Neither had any way of knowing much information about the Incomplete World until they stepped into it. The problem was that while the Dream Pavilion provided the coordinates and the orbiting formula, they provided nothing else.

The coordinates were, of course, the exact location it had originally been found at. The orbiting formula was one calculated based on the unique characteristics of every world, whether Complete or Incomplete. Essentially, it allowed you to pinpoint its location as a function of time.

Though an orbiting formula could change-or more accurately, certainly would over the course of a world's life-such changes only occurred over the course of millions to billions of years. For now, Leonel had no worries about the formula being incorrect any time soon.

This aside, while they had such information, what they didn't have was any knowledge of what was going on inside. So, they didn't realize that they had ended up in a non-human Domain until they touched down on a planet and found themselves surrounded by Oryx.

The Race itself was a surprise as well. That was because from Leonel's understanding, the Oryx were a very niche and uncommon Race. He had happened to stumble onto a small population of them on Valiant Heart Mountain, and Elthor, their prince, had even become a huge part of his people's combat strength, but it wasn't the kind of race he expected to find elsewhere.

As far as he knew, there were no Oryx in Complete Worlds, at least not ones born there naturally.

'Interesting...'

This was the first thought Leonel had when he and Aina were surrounded. Well, surrounded was a bit much. There were only three Oryx, and they were in the middle of the wilderness with no backup to speak of. Plus, the strongest of them was only in the Sixth Dimension, while the two weakest were in the Fifth.

Leonel could imagine why they were so confident, considering Aina was only in the Fourth and he was in the Fifth. But he didn't really take them seriously at all.
