I mumbled, "Why is it so hot, I'm sure it was nice when I went to bed."
As the heat finally woke me from my slumber, I opened my eyes and couldn't believe the scenery. A crater had formed with me in the middle, the crater was smoldering, and dozens of trees were on fire and snapped at the base of the trunk. That wasn't the only thing wrong, the trees were not ones from where I lived. They had bright purple trunks and leaves with different hues of red. When I tried to get up I couldn't keep my balance and fell back down in a heap. The only thing keeping me from freaking out was that the ground didn't hurt even though it was hot.
I decided to think about the situation as there didn't seem to be any immediate danger and even if there was, I wasn't prepared to deal with it. A big problem appeared as I thought back to when I went to sleep, my memory held no answers to my name, my parents, or where I lived. I could remember that where I am now is not where I was, but nothing seemed to be clicking with faces or names.
As I thought about myself, a blue screen appeared in front of my face.
Amelia, I'm sorry, we're sorry. Something went wrong with your system when it activated, and the gods decided they would only help you if you became their entertainment. We don't know what they want, but it was the only way to save you. We love you, and we always will.
It seemed my name is Amelia and my system malfunctioned. The gods offered to fix it in exchange for my life. Or at least they wanted something from me. Maybe I'm their dancing monkey? I should probably open my system to see what it is, as I've only read about it before.

Something is wrong, there should not be ??? in any of the slots and I have been locked out of skills. Something in my head was telling me that I could still use the skills even if I didn't see them. So I focused on using my mana to create water, and a stream of water appeared... above my head drenching me. My clothes didn't get wet, and I could swear that the red shirt and black pants I was wearing weren't what I wore before I lost consciousness. Since I guess it wasn't sleep I had before the gods intervened.
My wet strawberry blond hair dried quite quickly with the smoldering ground acting as a hair drying, I could only guess I had some type of skill that made me either highly resistant to fire or immune to it. I didn't want to try touching a flame to find out how high it was though.
I needed to figure out what I was going to do now. Maybe a list of what to do since the gods didn't write me anything other than seemingly letting my parents(?) write that I was entertainment. They didn't specify so maybe my survival was their entertainment? Or was it a quest to get home, even though I don't have any clue where I am? First things first, I need to find shelter or civilization, get a supply of food, find out if the wildlife wants to eat me, and hope that my clothes are extremely durable or enchanted.
Messing with my magic will have to come soon since I need to know if I can protect myself since it seems my stats are very low on the physical side of things. Since my dizziness started to fade, I stood up and made my way out of the crater avoiding the burning trees as I went. The forest was covered in purple-barked trees, and the mountain range in the distance told me I would need to go in the opposite direction if I wanted to go in a direction civilization would sprout.

??? POV:
I have to wonder why we even "helped" the girl since she would have probably survived the system's meddling. I can only guess that when the Light and Dark gods saw her, they felt threatened and decided to take the opportunity while she was not able to resist and pry her away from the one family where multiple higher gods have appeared. The problem is that the higher gods are currently unable to interfere with the worlds unless their progeny are going to die and die she wouldn't have. I did get the elementals to give her their blessings though, I do love entertainment. Now entertain me, little girl, fight like the worlds are against you, because they are.
