Persian-blue waters reflected sunlight like sparkling diamonds, shimmering stars tracing the light from a bright yellow sun that hovered over the horizon. Corban counted three chained islands in total since he was spit out of space and time onto the outermost beach the day before. 

Each landmass bore similar resumes: Many trees, several caves, and various man-made structures, such as bridges connecting them, yet bore no other life than the fish. If looked at from a bird's eye view, the landmasses also formed a geometrically perfect isoceles triangle, something the doctor-mage wasn't entirely sure was a coincidence. Regardless, he appeared thoroughly out of place in the summer water-world. Or perhaps it would be more fitting to say 'it'? It may have been the wide-brimmed pointed hat that it wore upon its head, or the unmatching(yet same-colored) black lab coat, but in this line of work, uniquely dressed characters were a dime a dozen.

The true wow-factor came in his execution of form. 'Corvana' as he affectionately called this body sat with her butt upon a thoroughly bent tree trunk, whom's length extended past the man-made high-rise and over several feet of crystal-blue water. She was physically perfect insofar as Corban was concerned, bearing a form, waist-size, and bust that could only be thought up by a man. Beside her, leaning against her crooked tree was Ishtalle, platinum hair drooping like misting clouds over her form.

"Interesting...." S(he) began. Her fingers curled and flexed, the sand several feet away and below her earthen pedastal beginning to rise and coalesce in similar motions. "I never thought it would drag me in, but now that we've been here a while, I think im beginning to understand."

<Understand what, exactly?> 

"This things nature. It bears a unique faculty for the alteration of space, time, and relative dimensions. Each one seems separate from the last. Im also not convinced we're being teleported across a single landmass." 

<The atmospheric differences are too exact.Keen eye.> 

"This is engineered. It's like a living non-biological entity formed of reality marbles!"

<So its similar to me in some regards, then. We'll have to keep that in mind as the contest plays out.>

"I learn best on the fly, anyways."

The rising sands were clumped and forced together as they were silently transmuted into about a dozen rhinestones of every shape and color, yet never larger than a small rock. They flitted and spun like tops across the sandy shore, kicking up water and quartz in their stride back to their masters. Majority of them were willed into her various pockets, while three -diamond, sapphire, and ruby- were caught between her fingers before she began juggling them.

"Hmm. Do you think this place  has Paopu fruit, Ishtalle?"
