An echoing drip, a moment of weightlessness, and then you drop.
With a splash you hit the hard stone floor of a cave, a vibrant cyan mist is around you, dissipating quickly as you sit there in shock.
You sit there, staring blankly at the cave wall, your mind slowly processing. You know things; words, concepts, what things are, but no memories. You don’t know your name or if you even have one.
Your attempt at introspection is broken by water splashing on you, it’s dripping down from stalactites on the ceiling, onto the stalagmites…. There’s no point in getting lost in thought, especially when you’ve been dropped into an unknown place. Maybe you should look around this cave, or find a way out.

How we got here, I guess? Do we... do we live here, or?
Oh, and our NAME too

You suppose your mind might hold some knowledge about how you got here or something about this place even if you don’t recognise it, maybe this is your home?
First, your name. You been calling yourself “U” in your thoughts, maybe that’s your name? It doesn’t feel like it, but it’s the only thing you can think of.
“U,” U say, it echoes throughout the cave the only sound other than the echoing drips.
Language… there’s something you know, at least.
Digging further into the back of your mind, you find the same issue you had earlier, knowledge but no memories, at least nothing beyond the short time since you arrived.
However, there is something, a feeling. Safety? Familiarity?... Dread? You try pushing deeper into it, it’s the only thing in your head.
The feeling builds until…
Two amber spheres, looming out of the darkness, a stale smell, a sound like a forest being ripped apart by a hurricane, immense pain.
You snap back to reality, wrenching your arms upwards, the pain is still there, pulsing in your head. That was awful, but what were those spheres and that noise? Trying to remember brings that feeling back, faintly. Best to avoid thinking about it, you don’t want to experience that again.
Well, if your mind is no help, you might as well do something else about your situation

There’s a second dripping noise now; your nose is bleeding…

> Look at something in particular (What?)
Look for a source of light/water/wind and follow it.

The dripping of blood from your nose seems to have stopped now, most of it having fallen into the puddles and rivulets of water on the cave floor.
Taking your mind off whatever just happened, you suppose you should look for some sign of an exit.
Your first instinct is to look for a light; it’s the most obvious thing you can think of. That glowing cyan mist did light up a lot of the dark areas, but it’s gone now and it’s not like it was coming from anywhere in particular. Moving on, you've noticed the spot you’re standing at does seem to be lit from above by a faint light, but the way the passage bends blocks you from seeing where it’s coming from.
It’s not like you could climb up anyway, the walls of the cave are at too harsh an angle and are covered in water.

That makes you notice, the opening does seem to be where all the water in the cave is coming from, a lot of is dripping down onto the stalagmites next to you. Maybe following that will lead somewhere.
Following the rivulets with your eyes, you see a pool of murky grey water in a dark corner. Walking over to it you have a closer look, it’s nearly opaque with silt but you can make out long, pale creatures swimming in it. They’re of varying size but none are bigger than your hand.
Looking further to the back of the pool you see the cave wall intersects with the back of it, a couple arms lengths away. You can’t see how deep it is or if it goes back further underwater, but you can infer that it goes somewhere, since the water level isn’t getting higher.
You might be able to swim through it, but it’ll be risky. (STAT DISCOVERED: Stamina – F)

Before you try anything, you realise there’s one sign of an exit that you forgot to check. Wind. Unlike the other things, there’s nothing immediately obvious, the air is mostly still, aside from the regular disturbances from falling water. You do a quick circuit around the lit area; there’s no breeze and the air is consistently cool and humid. Nothing.
You go back to the central lit area, having one last look around you do notice a couple important things. With your back to the pool, you notice ahead of you what looks like a tight passage, it hooks to the left, blocking your view through and is fairly dim, you’d go over and look, but you seem to be strangely afraid of the dark.
To your right there’s a prominent overhang of rock, it goes down at quite a shallow angle and there seems to be an odd formation hang off it about halfway. The thing that caught your eye, however, is a wide gap at the base of it, leading into pitch blackness.
You’ll have to push yourself to go anywhere dark enough. (STAT DISCOVERED: Will - G)
Your investigation seems to have yielded some result; you have some actual choices now.
What do (U) do?
> You might be able to swim through that pool, but there’s no way of knowing how far it goes (Stamina DC???)
> The first passage seemed promising, but maybe that’s because it’s brighter (Will DC 40)
> The short and wide passage is easier to get into even if you must crawl, but the darkness, you’re not sure if you can handle it (Will DC 70)
> Pick up an object, there’s pebbles near the stalagmites, and those pale things in the water (You can do this alongside another option)
> Look at something specific (What?)
> Try to remember again.
> Do something else (Write In)
