The woman and the strange hooded man would feel a strange tugging feeling after they had touched the podium, Their bodies felt as if they had been pulled through the ground. It felt as if they were pulled through the soil, sometimes it was soft or frozen or the feeling of being pulled through rock but there was no pain in their bodies. The feeling would be hard to describe but it was as if they were actually one with the earth they were being pulled through. Soon they stopped moving, not being able to see anything besides the brownness and texture of the soil. Then once again they felt a strange sensation but this time it was something besides the tugging feeling, It felt as if their bodies had started to sprout out of the ground similar to growing plants, they popped from the earth seeing their area of combat.
They found themselves it what seemed to be a forest, the pine tress still intact with the occasional dying or sickly tree. Snow layered the ground but there were few dry parts were one could see the soil or small vegetation that was being killed by the cold winter that enveloped the area. Things felt mysterious in the strange woods though, there was no sign of life in the forest besides them and the trees. It may have been winter but surely there had to bee animals scavenging for food or animals in hibernation because of the intense winter. There was also the feeling of foreboding that blanketed the area, despite the lack of life they wouldn't be able to shake the feeling that something was watching them.
The timer, which started at 120 slowly counting down by the second, floated above them. In the time before the clock would run out they would be free to do what they liked, Once the timer would end the timer would change into the word round one starting off the fight, The staring feeling felt like it was getting closer, trees in the background rustling from the sound of something running.
OOC: There will be no time limit for this post as this is just meant to be an introduction to the area of combat helping to give you a grasp of the area you'll be fighting in. After this every round will be on a normal posting time that will not stop until a break or till the battle is over.
