You don't need your eyes to know. This isn't Magnolia.
At least... it's no Magnolia you'd be familiar with.
The skies are red, blood-blood red with dark black clouds like - not normal clouds, but the thick, thick clouds that blot out the sky from a fierce fire. There's so much of it is almost chokes the senses. The ground is uneven and broken, the streets are completely empty - and it feels like they've been empty for a long, long, LONG time. At one point there's even a deep chasm in the center of the street. The buildings, the homes and the businesses are empty, glass shattered, doors collapsed inwards - even in some cases it looks like the buildings themselves were -stepped- on. Glancing further downward towards the residential area shows even more homes crushed and collapsed, little more than heaps of wood, stone, glass and blood.
Or maybe Gildarts paid a surprise visit.
"Wow, What a dump." Apricot remarked. "Welp, I did what I said I'd do. See ya!" And she quickly starts to zip away.
Regine looked around, stunned, "This isn't.. how you described your home to me before..." Another glance around revealed.. nope, no children here. She turned towards the tiny ball of light, "Wait a second! Where are the kids!"
Apricot paused, turning back to Regine. "Eh, I dunno, around here somewhere. I'm not their babysitter. See ya!" And this time she did book it, trying to get as far away from the dragonslayer as possible.
Lucy, once she had her senses back, was struck speechless when she glanced around. This couldn't be Magnolia. Except there was so much that was -familiar- - though destroyed or abandoned, the buildings were in the same places they should have been. But it felt -WRONG- at the same time. "This.. this isnt' right, this isn't Magnolia... what happened...?"
