You are in a room. You do not recall how you got here.

There is a button on the wall, underneath a bronze plaque that reads "Press button to create world."

What do you do?

Large enough, but kind of cramped, so it's a relief that the first time she presses it the walls and ceiling crumble (covering her in plaster dust) revealing a huge sprawling evergreen forest and overcast clouds overhead that are drizzling lightly.

The forest continues as far as the eye can see from this vantage point in every direction, save for what may be some kind of castle on the horizon to Qhaellizith's left. It's hard to tell from this distance, but certainly at least some large structure.

Wow! This sure is some impressive magic. At any rate, it's nice to be able to stretch her wings now. And stretch her wings she does, heading for the castle. After all, where there's civilization, there's opportunity!

As the dragon flies, the horizon isn't really that far away at all, but it still takes longer than she might expect to reach the structure. It was further than it looked, just really big.

The structure appears to indeed be a castle, a huge one, but (aside from being totally abandoned), there's something odd about it. The shape. The endless crenelations and towers form...the shape of a human, when viewed from above.

There is room to land in a courtyard in side.

Such a distance isn't a big deal for Qhaellizith, though she does find herself surprised at both the distance and the scale of the castle. And then she flies over it, and sees the shape of the castle. Really? Were humans really that vain that they'd build a castle in their own shape? (Nevermind that she wouldn't find it particularly vain if a dragon did the same.)

But it's an interesting enough castle for her to want to check it out! So she lands in the courtyard and then assumes human form to better explore it.
