clunk
It was a dull, muted sound that came along with Asher hitting the ground like a sack of bricks. The young man lay there on grass that had not been there a moment ago, groaning quietly as his wits returned to him.
"Wha...? Where...?" He managed, eyes opening as his head lifted to take a look at his new surroundings. His vision swam but quickly returned to focus, the swirling patterns that had been blocking them for the last... However long, drifting away until they were nothing more than a memory. He saw grass, trees and bushes, but not a whole lot else. This was still more than enough to make him stand, rising somewhat groggily as his balance reoriented itself.
"How did I get here...?" Asher looked around slowly, allowing his body to regain full functionality, but saw nothing more than what he'd already seen. He clutched his pounding head with both hands, groaning again, when his eyes suddenly lit up as if a thought suddenly struck him. He lowered his hands and looked around a little more quickly, seeming more alert. "That portal-thing! It... I was sucked through it? Where'd it take me?"
Glancing down as something caught his eye Asher saw it was not only foliage in the vicinity, but a large bag just a few feet from where he'd been lying. After only brief hesitation he stepped over to it and crouched down, opening it up and rummaging through its contents, though his expression only grew into confusion as he identified each object... Including some that should not have fit in a bag of this size.
He found clothes, weapons and armour within the bag. Looking them over in silence, gears turning in his mind as he considered them, Asher eventually just... Nodded. He looked surprised by his own action, at least for a moment, before a look of unusual determination replaced his confusion. Without further delay he stripped away his clothes and put on the set he found in the bag, tossing his old ones aside to be forgotten.
A short period of time later
I am Inferi.
