"FractureTale"

You peer slightly closer, and notice the helm is...dusty? Is that dust? You can't really tell.
You get a feeling that whoever Chekov was, he passed away recently.

I shake the dust off and don the helmet.

You equipped Chekov's helmet!
It doesn't quite fit, but it'll do. It's also nice and sturdy.

"Nice!"

You are briefly plagued by a haunting vision of gunfire, a corpse, and generally distressing content.

I collapse to my knees, throwing the helmet off of my head in utter horror. I scramble away from the helmet as fast as I can.
"OH GREG WHAT WAS THAT!?!?"
I shout in terror.

Someone turns their head in your direction, startled by the noise, but doesn't inquire further. The helm's symbol remains etched in your memory;


You stare at the helm in horror for a short while.

"...I-I need to go find someone... I'll go tell Frisk about this..."
I shakily stand up, before flying away to find Frisk.

You find Frisk.
holup Imma check where they were

You find Frisk, sitting before a Nintendo Switch. Some old-style RPG is on it...
Frisk seems to have fallen asleep while playing the game!

"...Oh, they're asleep."
I hesitate for a moment, before deciding to lie down next to them, with my back against theirs.
Curled up in my wings, I soon drift off to sleep...

You fall asleep.
...
In your dream, you wander through a golden city — not glamourous per say, but golden nevertheless. It's a strange place, and a tethered moon floats in the distance.
There are clouds in the sky, with vivid imagery within them. One cloud shows a vast chessboard, while another reveals a fashioned manor...

Foreshadowing is a narrative device in which suggestions or warnings about events to come are dropped or planted. Foreshadowing often appears at the beginning of a story, and it helps develop or subvert the audience's expectations about upcoming events.[1][2]

A writer may implement foreshadowing in many different ways such as character dialogues, plot events, and changes in setting. Even the title of a work or a chapter can act as a clue that suggests what is going to happen. Foreshadowing in fiction creates an atmosphere of suspense in a story so that the readers are interested and want to know more.

The literary device is generally used to build anticipation in the minds of readers about what might happen next to add dramatic tension to a story. Moreover, foreshadowing can make extraordinary and bizarre events appear credible, and some events are predicted so that the audience feels that it anticipated them.[3]

Hints may be about future events, character revelations, and plot twists to create mood, convey theme, and build suspense, usually to hint at the good events that will likely cross paths with or happen to the main character later on.[4]

Plot can be delayed by situations or events to give the impression that something momentous will occur to build anticipation and emphasize importance to them, which gives the audience a series of questions, particularly after cliffhangers.

The literary device is frequently adapted for use by composers of theatrical music, in the composition of operas, musicals, radio, films, television, gaming, podcasts, and internet scores and underscores, and incidental music for spoken theatrical productions.

Methods

Foreshadowing can be accomplished by the use of story-driven or fictional events which can bring original dialogue, emotional investment in the plot, such as for the main character, unknown and present characters.

A flashback is the interruption of a sequential narrative plot to present important events that have happened in the past to present plot points that are difficult to bring into the narrative, such as character traits, events, or themes which may drive the current narrative or to be revealed.
