Remnants Inventor (Magic The Gathering x RWBY)

Volume 1 Episode 1 - Dust Till Dawn

Ollur was watching the sky with both wonder, and fear. This wasn't the night sky that he was used to back in his home. There was no constellation that he knew and studied before as child, no aether flowing up there with the stars. But the thing that stood out the most, was the moon, for it was broken in pieces.

Just a few minutes ago, he was standing in his house, working on his new creation, as a small, but very visible purple light appeared before him. "And what are you supposed to be," the inventor looked at the anomaly with curiousity. "Some new form of aether, or perhaps something completely new?"

The light in anwser to his question, started to fly around him. While it wasn't too bright to blind someone, it quickly started getting closer to Ollur, which intrigued him even more.

Was it sentient, the inventor asked himself, as the light began to circle him around. It felt like it was scanning him, looking for something, that only it knew what exactly.

Suddenly, just as quick as it appeared, the small purple light dove straight into the inventors chest, completely dissapearing inside him, leaving the man not only speechles, but also worried.

And just like that, he was suddenly took away from his house, and thrown into this new, mysterius place with broken moon, alone.

"Facinating," Ollur spoke to himself, while he was afraid of this situation, his inner curiousity took over his mind quickly, leaving him only to crave more information about his whereabouts.

As the man looked around, in the distance he noticed a buch of small lights, to which he deducted that they must have belong to a city. While traveling towards it, Ollur noticed a quite peculiar thing on his path. A small handbag was lying right in front of him, with his name written on the small paper card on top of the bag. Looking inside, Ollur, even more suprised, found out, that it was full of his tools, that he left back home. Inside was another card, that read: "To Ollur, for your brigth mind may light the shadows ahead."

Intrigued even more, the inventor took the bag, and went ahead to the city that he never saw before. It was obvious for him that, as the sky, there was no aether, or at least, constructs full of aether. There wasn't any living beings either, as the only proof that the city wasn't abandoned, was that many windows were full of lights, the same ones that Ollur saw before he came here.

"That structure, no, architecture itself," Ollur said to himself, putting his hand on of the buildings. "Their so different. Just, where am I, and why?"

Then, Ollur noticed the next step on his journey, a small shop, right in front of him, and as far as he saw, the only one open at that hour. "Perhaps someone here will be kind enough to a stranger, to tell him more about this city," the inventor, fascinated, went inside the store. The name over the doors spelled "From Dust Till Dawn".

"Excuse me?" Ollur spoke to the old man behind the counter, that seemed to didn't notice the inventor at all, even after few unsuccessful attempts. Ollur, after calling the old man a "lost cause" simply walked around the shop, his curiousity rising even more than ever.

Everywhere he looked, there was something that caught his attention. Bags, crystals in different colours, but the thing that interestid him the most, were the books. Full of weird illutrations and phrases, were the perfect thing that could explain this place to him, Ollur thought to himself.

He was quietlly reading one of the weird thin books, standing next to a short hooded girl, wearing black and red clothes, while some weird music was playing in the store, when he heard the faint sound of bells, that were signalissing that someone entered the store. Ollur, thinking that it was some other customers, simply ingored it.
