So can someone tell me what this is all about? It better not be some kind of vacation condo timeshare thing again, because if it is I'm sorry but you've got the wrong guy.

I'm Chance, by the way. Anyone know what's going on here?

It is not so common place as all that, I'm afraid.

I thought the emails were a little strange for regular spam. Can you tell me what's going on? I'm really confused.

Hi, Chance, I'm Alan.

I can definitely tell you there's no timeshares of any sort here. As for what this place is, though, well... It's a place for extraordinary people.

And you make the fourth new person here over the last week or so, myself included.

My name is Leo. It's a pleasure.

Hi Alan, nice to meet you.

Extraordinary people? I'm not extraordinary, I'm just a construction guy from New York.

...Wait, do you mean something else? Some other way people might be extraordinary? Because I had a weird thing happen to me and I'm not sure I'm not just delusional.

Hi Leo, nice to meet you. Four of us? Why are you here?

Hello, there! Welcome to the craziest show on earth. ;) In other words, it's much more interesting than vacation timesharing here.

My name is Misha. It's a real pleasure to meet you, Chance.

You received the email because of who you were and are. Tell me, have you had strange dreams?

Hi, Chance. My name is Cal and I'm in NYC, too. I'm a second grade teacher in Harlem.

Don't worry. No one here is going to try and sell you anything but it's probably going to take some serious explaining to clear it all up.

I'm Layla, also one of the new kids. Welcome to this corner of cyberspace. I can tell you what the deal is if you'd rather me rip the bandaid off rather than sugar coat, but I like to give folks the option first.

Hi Misha, it's a pleasure to meet you too.

Yeah, I'm beginning to get the impression that things are pretty interesting around here...

Hi Cal, nice to meet another New York resident.

I'm hoping someone can explain it to me. ~~Though I have a feeling I know what it's about...~~

Lots of dreams, sometimes when I'm awake. Memories, too. Or what I'm pretty sure are memories. That's what they feel like.

I'm beginning to think I know what this is about...

Hi Layla, glad to know there's more of us new here. Yeah, rip the bandaid off. I'd rather just know, you know? ~~Even though I think I already do...~~

Good. That makes things far easier.

Do you know your name?

Yeah, kumbaya and all that shit. Well, it's a forum for - specifically - reincarnated deities and whatnot. So, hi, I'm actually Nyx.

But I work in a club with good drinks if you need one. I know I sure do.

Don't laugh, but I think I was Percival from the Arthurian Legends. If I'm not just delusional, that is.

You aren't delusional. I am Mab.

Hello, dear boy. Callista Lovelace, editor of Mode Moderne. Or Aphrodite, if you'd prefer.

Nice to see another face in New York.

Reincarnated? Here I just thought... well, I don't know what I thought. Maybe that I was crazy.

I'm not a deity, though. I'm Percival from King Arthur's Knights. I guess that makes me a whatnot.

Where's this club of yours? Hopefully close to New York.

Well, it actually looks like others beat me to it. On the other hand, you already have a name for yourself so that must help you accept this more easily.

So I'm not just Cal Hobson. I'm also Bes of the Egyptian pantheon. If you need anything, just let me know and I'll do my best to help.

You might be crazy, don't get me wrong, but it's not because of this issue.

No shit! Well, that's pretty cool. I'd say one of King Arthur's knights is one of the best whatnot's to be.

It's in NYC, actually. Grey Sky is the name.

Hi, Chance! Looks like I'm a little late to the party since you already know who you are and have met some of your group but I'm Javi George also known as Hanuman of the Hindu group. I'm out in CA, the Bay Area, though, so who knows when we'll meet but I'm sure we will. Sometimes we end up in a pocket dimension hotel thing so we'll hang out then. Okay?

Looks like I have a lot of mythology reading in my future. Thanks for the offer of help.

Very, very interesting and never a dull moment! And, since you have your other name already and it's such a lovely one, I'd like to introduce myself again.

I'm also Titania and I'm in NYC, too. If you ever want to hang out, just give me a holler!

You're most likely not delusional. What happened? Most of us probably have gone through the same thing.

I imagine the same reason you are. I received the email, and it wouldn't allow me to ignore it. And I happen to have an unusual past.

Hello! I'm Amber. I'm a pastry chef living in California. It's so nice to see so many new faces here!

I thought I was new but apparently I'm not really any longer. Philippa. Pleasure to meet you.

So which one are you in? I mean if you're this knight-guy does that make you a Celt or one of us Judeo-Christian types. I mean your king worshiped God right? Shouldn't that put you with us?

Hi Javi, or do you prefer Hanuman? I'm not sure of this whole thing yet. I'm originally from Portland, so hopefully we'll be able to hang out at some point and talk West Coast.

Pocket dimension hotel thing?

I answer to both lately so it's up to you which you're more comfortable using. It's no big deal to me. Well, not anymore. It took a little while getting okay with it because of my sort-of previous religious upbringing but I got over that and it's all cool now.

Yep. It's weird. It's not a bad hotel and you don't even miss a day here in the real world but it gets really weird. Like Survivor but with electricity and magical powers and generally more clothing/better hygiene. I've only been once but it was enough. I woke up handcuffed to Bres. That was a little awkward, you know?
