Which do you choose?

Mind

You pick the sphere of the Mind. Aren't you a clever one?

You hear the sound of waves washing against a shore and exotic birds squawking. It's hot and your skin feels a little burnt. All of this is peculiar since you're supposed to be nice and cozy in your bed. It's a little shocking to open your eyes and find that's not the case, find that you're still in pajama pants and a t-shirt, but on a sandy tropical coast, with a line of trees behind you and a vast ocean ahead of you.

Only a little shocking though. Something in your dream told you this would happen. You feel different too. Calmer, sharper. You look at the sky and immediately know that it's between 10:00 and 11:00 AM, and that whatever island this is, it doesn't seem to be on Earth. Do you know that because of the dream, or because of the mind sphere you chose?

Not important. Right now, you've got just the clothes on your back. Priority number one is to take care of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. Food, water, and shelter are on the immediate agenda. Water is the most important, so you head inland to look for a stream or pool. The ground is soft, which is good since you lack shoes, and the forest has relatively little undergrowth. You don't see anything other than a few birds, but you do notice a number of fruits growing from the trees.

Maybe there's no one else on this island? Nah.

Who do you encounter?
