You wake up after hearing the sound of a roaring fire, and noticed that you were seeing it was just that, while sleeping in an uncomfortable position, as if someone kidnapped you. You then find that you were being kidnapped. Your hands were tied behind a hole, while your feet were buried into the ground.
Next to you was another guy who was also tied up, as you both weren't wearing shirts, and you find a man wearing robes, and a jeweled necklace, as he stood in front of you. "Brave travelers of man," the robed individual says. "You have been accepted to sacrifice your lives for the good of humanity. For this, I will give both of you the forms of the animal I choose, and the ritual to prevent the gods of destruction from killing us will be only a memory for all of us to avoid."
