Arthur stirs awake when his nose hits something padded. He blinks in confusion as he lays in the darkness before reaching out to touch his surroundings. It was compact, not very comfortable and felt very similar to the time he woke up in a grave. He recalls speaking to Sandrath and something involving him taking care of things.
A wave of panic takes over Arthur as he bangs on the lid and calls out, "San! Open up! This isn't funny! San!?" There was no response and the former paramedic was forced to take things in to his own hands. He starts shifting inside of the coffin, trying to find a weak spot or some opening on a side.
After a few minutes of struggling, the coffin spills out on to the floor and Arthur pushes the lid open. He slowly sits up and takes several calming, deep breaths before scanning the unfamiliar room around him. This wasn't the place he spoke to San, before everything went numb and he lost consciousness. Where was he now and what happened to Sandrath?
A sudden chill in the air makes him realize that he was naked and his paramedic uniform was no where to be found. He quickly raises himself out of the coffin and moves to the closest wardrobe. As he opens the door, he catches a glimpse of himself in the mirror and notices that the scars he had before were no longer there. Odd. His attention shifts to the clothes that were hanging up inside. They were a little big in a couple of areas but they would do for now.
Once Arthur was fully dressed and procured some shoes, he leaves the room and finds himself in what looks like an apartment hallway. He closes the door behind him before venturing downstairs and out the main door to the street.
The sights, sounds and smells that greeted him were vastly different from the port town of Vandare. Various people and beings were freely walking the streets and interacting with each other with little to no hostility. It was still a weird thing for Arthur, he thought supernatural beings and creatures only existed in literature (with a few exceptions).
The former paramedic was unsure on where to go and didn't want to approach or bother anyone with animal features. So, he approaches someone who looks to be mostly human and gets directions to a bar called the Devil's Nest as well as the name of the owner.
Several minutes later, he passes through the establishment's doors and makes his way to the counter.
"Excuse me. Can you help me? I'm looking for someone known as 'Greed'."
