Lucy had put much faith into this being real, the whole thing seemed like something she would do to someone else which made her understandably cautions. Yet she still came. Partially because it was such an odd letter to receive, it was English and she was in Japan. She had gotten a job in Okinawa teaching English to high school students though midway through the year it had gone from her teaching them to them teaching her basic Japanese in English, which surprisingly greatly improved many of the students English test scores. However, this thought was very much beside the point. What was relevant about this teaching situation was that she could reasonably conclude that one of her students had done this as an end of the year prank, they were much more tech savvy then even Lucy who had built a website from scratch. She assumed that it was a dressed up drone or something similar. Though even that was questionable but she was teaching seniors and she wouldn't put it past them, she had used many of her high school escapades into 'figure out how I did it' class discussions, which they actually seemed to like. So maybe they were like a force of Karma in the world, but part of her was sure this was real.
That little part of her was very sure in fact because said little part of her brain actually remembered what happened. No technology could have replicated the creature that approached her, it was too life-like, too real. Not to mention she had left the letter outside on accident and the Okinawa rainy season lived up to its name by pouring that afternoon and ruining the letter to the point that Lucy had to scrape it off the outdoor table to throw it away. Luckily she remembered where to go and now stood on a deserted beach , as most beaches were during the rainy season, with her she carried a worn duffle bag. A storm loomed overhead and with it wind and the sound of crashing waves and she waited semi-patiently though she wasn't sure for what. That was when the glowing started in her left hand, she briefly thought of ball lightning, a stupid thought because what was happening couldn't possibly be ball lightning. The light was becoming so incredibly bright that she just closed her eyes and turned away from her own hand. At least she was quite sure that this was what she was waiting for.
It took her a moment to realize there was no wind or the sound of waves anymore, even the smell of salt was gone. She ventured to open her eyes and she found that she was a big field but more importantly was what was above the field, Dragons. It wasn't a joke, it was real. Well that or she was gladly falling for the most elaborate ruse ever created. Lucy swallowed, her throat suddenly dry, possibly because her mouth was hanging open. Then she just nodded, this was all beyond amazing and her default was to just smile and appreciate the fact that her dreams had been answered. She was led to the waiting area by a little dragon, she would have attempted to have a conversation with the dragon but she decided there would likely be plenty of time for that, after all dragons were supposed to be like immortal or something. The dragon left her at a pavilion with three other people who were chosen. "I've a feeling we aren't in Kansas anymore." she gave a little laugh before taking a seat, by herself of course nobody knew each other yet so it was probably best not to make anything awkward.
