SETTING


      Artha is a fictional place, the location and time of which is not entirely known.

      The flora and fauna are the same as present day Earth, minus the existence and influence of the human race. The terrain is identical to that of Earth, with mountains, valleys, rivers, and plains. Everything seems as it should be, except for the fact that it isn't. There are no recognizable landmarks. No familiar paths to take you home. Trees are still trees. Deer are still scared of you. Mosquitos still love you. But this is a foreign world.

      So, how did you get to Artha? There are no discernible land bridges. No tunnels. Well, in short, you just appeared. Poof. One moment you are living your life as normal--perhaps taking a nap, perhaps just blinking--and the next, you are in Artha in a place known as The Center. There is no smoke, no strange or unusual sensation, no indication that anything happened at all. You simply were in one place, and now you're here.

      Now, of course, there are questions. Questions ranging from those in the same vein of Shroedinger's Cat to the theory of alternate universes. Unfortunately, there are no answers as of yet. All we know, is that we don't.

PLOT


      When a wolf arrives in Artha, fresh from... wherever and whenever they came from, they appear in a place known as The Center. What and where The Center is, is yet unknown. However, its name, and the name of this place, Artha, are both communicated to the wolf through something. The wolf will hear the Voice in their head, saying the word "Artha" followed by the words "The Center", which then instills in the wolf the knowledge that this place is called Artha, and that they are in The Center. However, it's now been reported that in some cases, the Voice does not speak at all. Rather, the information is gained without having heard anything, just feeling something and then being brought to understanding.

      Unique to each wolf, the Voice will be heard differently by every individual. Some hear a male voice, others female, and some can tell no gender. Some wolves even hear a voice of someone they know, or knew at some point in their life. It is possible for multiple wolves to hear the Voice at the same time, but to hear differently than another or to hear different things said but still have the same knowledge. What the Voice is or where the Voice comes from is unknown.

      At this point in time, there are more questions than answers, and nothing beyond the name of The Center and Artha are known. The only option is to explore, ask, and learn.
