Awakening with a jolt, the lurantis would easily pick up that something was off; She wasn't resting on woven grass, instead laying on something that while softer, was still foreign to her. No sun was shining onto her with its welcoming warmth, a harsh light being what greeted her sight instead. Even the air felt wrong as it was dry and cool instead of a warm and humid type from the jungle she normally resided in. All of it was confirmed when she managed to sit up on the foreign surface, seeing that she was in some kind of transparent chamber, feeling that it was utterly cramped due to her being around the size that one would be considered a 'Totem' at roughly a dozen or so feet in size. Her stature though was not going to help as she managed to get herself to stand up, nearly bumping the top of her head against the ceiling of the chamber.

Grumbling to herself, she would move around the place to try and get a better look of everything present; A bed that was too small for her to properly sleep on, a fuzzy carpet that barely extended past the underside of said bed. Opposite side of the chamber from the bed had a table with a device she knew to be a 'television' that humans would have their eyes glued to all the time, said device currently off. What looked to be a segmented couch tucked into one corner to the left of the TV, a bare bookshelf in another. A sink with a mirror in the third corner, and something that looked to be the only source of water at the current moment. As for food, she wasn't sure where any scrap of it was at, failing to see even a berry after her initial inspection, grumbling under her breath as she sat back down onto the bed, ignoring the 'complaints' from it due to her just dropping down onto it in her frustration. She wanted to try and use some kind of ability in here to get out, but felt that she wouldn't have enough room to wind up to use them.

"Got used to the place now, it seems." a voice chimed in and nearly made the lurantis jump out of her skin, jolting to her right and clumsily falling from the bed, looking over to the nightstand next to the bed and saw one more device that she apparently missed. Laughter came from it due to her initial surprised reaction, much to her irritation, before the sound of a throat being cleared would cut off the laughter. "My apologies for the laughter, since I wasn't expecting that kind of reaction. And further so if you feel trapped in here. Rest assured that you'll have a way out of the place, just it won't really come at a timely convenience for you. I will clue you in though; You'll need a different kind of perspective in the chamber first before you can find the exit. Have fun."

The cryptic message at the end made the lurantis cock her head to the side, a quizzical look on her face. 'A different perspective'? What did the voice mean by that? Still, she doubted that she'd get answers by asking due to her current predicament, lifting herself back up and onto the bed, glancing around and wondered what to do now.

Yes, the lack of textures for the chamber itself save for the transparency and the ground below along with the lack of a backdrop is kind of intentional. Tried to make it look like some kind of facility >~>;

Alright, so lemme explain how this will work.

There are two stages to each part of this sequence; The first one, after the posting of this image, will be the voting stage, that will carry on through tomorrow. The next day will be the second stage, in that the votes are tallied up, setup worked on to reflect the results, then posted. This will repeat for several parts of the sequence, thinking at a minimum of eight before offering a vote to let folks have the sequence conclude or carry on making the lurantis dwindle further down.

Yep, this is going to be a vote-influenced shrinkage sequence, and the formula will be as follows;

Start of the day/next part: Lurantis' size will be counted as 100%.
100% - (number of votes among three potency 'levels') = new size.
Three levels of 'potency'; Low: -0.025%, Med: -0.05%, and High: -0.1%. Rates likely won't be concrete for future parts, but we'll see. Voters can only pick one from nine choices, three per category. Highest voted one will be reflected in the next part of the sequence, while runner-ups in the other two categories will have minor additions to imply they happened. To keep things from stalling, there will be a constant -2.5% size loss just to try and keep it going and somewhat interesting.
i.e.; Ten feet in standing height cut by a quarter down to seven and a half. Next part results in a downsize of twenty-eight percent, shrinking down to five point four feet, seemingly smaller since the previous height was listed as the '100%' size at the time.

By the eighth part, there will be a vote separate from the main poll, which gives folks the choice to have the sequence end – and thus have a couple of final images to show such – or to have it continue and thus keep making the lurantis smaller. This won't go on indefinitely though since I can only make the lurantis so small before things get difficult for me.

Starting poll; Closed. Thank you all for voting!

Next

Voting for this stage will go on for today and tomorrow, ending at midnight of tomorrow, tallied up, then the next scene worked on along with the calculations for size reductions.

Lurnatis current size: 12(Twelve) feet/365(three hundred and sixty-five) centimeters.
