- Obtain the sword of Theseus
- And bring those items to Willis' tower
Role Flavour:
You have strange dreams and visions. Something about Labyrinths always pulls you towards them. Maybe it's the Kanikiri gene that always strikes even though you don't want it to. But the point is, over the recent years you've had experiences outside of this realm. You trust you will be able to communicate with your miserable deceased relatives and many many others...
Role Description:
If you stumble across a corpse during your adventure, your power allows you to conduct a seance and pursue the deceased prisoner into the afterlife. You will be allowed to ask them one question, which we will do our best to see answered.
Please submit all role actions in this thread. Role actions not submitted in this thread will not count.
Phase 7 Results:
You gaze into the murky waters and speak the room that you want to see. The waters begin to change and spiral rapidly. They form an image which slowly comes into focus.
The room is familiar to you. It's the room from earlier with the chest full of sand. However everything appears to be exactly as you left it. Nothing has changed whatsoever.
The image faded and the stillness of the waters returned.
You approach the scrying waters and let a familiar room number come into your mind. The waters begin to stir like a miniature maelstrom and the image of a room is cast across the rippling waters of the pool as it comes to rest.
It was the cage room where Eleanor had spent a phase licking her wounds. There was a worrying amount of blood spread around the room. The cage rested harmlessly on the ground. Everything else was as you left it. You found some solace in this discovery, but upon exhaling your current breath the image on the water's surface rippled and disappeared.
Phase 11:
You don't remember what happened. Did you...did you all go through the Western exit like you planned? That seemed like the right thing to do.
Everything in here is dark. You're dead...aren't you? It was bound to happen sooner or later but it wasn't meant to feel like this. At least it didn't hurt....you don't think. You can't really remember. You recall Balagor going on about doing something useful and the business with the skeleton and....
Balagor defintely went towards the door. And then he opened it and said the room was completely empty. And...had you followed him? You really can't remember.
What had killed you? Shouldn't you at least know?
Suddenly a light came on. Was this the final passage? It was illuminating a small, confined corridor. Along the walls were a number of mirrors. At least...they looked like mirrors. You peered into one but you couldn't see your own face. You saw the face of one of your group.
What...what was this?
"Are you comfortable? Sorry about the delay. I think it's about time we got started, don't you?"
You glance up but there's no sign of the source of the voice.
"It can be a bit disorienting at first. But things will get a lot worse before they get better. First, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Willis. You decided to intrude upon my Labyrinth and I can assure you, I won't be leaving. Neither as it happens, will you."
So..maybe you aren't dead after all. You stand upright slowly and walk to another mirror. Another face in there...not yours. Your reflection is of somebody completely different. This is really unsettling.
"The task at hand is simple. One of your party will meet their unfortunate and final end whilst completing it though. How terribly tragic for you."
You turn around and see another mirror. This one has your reflection in it.
"These mirrors are portals. If you step through any of them, you will be taken to the person in the reflection. Nobody wants to be alone, especially in this place."
"There's a slight catch though. All of your party are also having to choose a mirror. Things will go very well for you provided just one person steps through the mirror that depicts you. But if they don't...I'm afraid that nothing can protect you. There's a very real chance you will die."
Death? Is there no other way?
"There is another way. Sometimes you cannot rely on others. But you can always trust yourself, can't you? One of the mirrors bears your own reflection. Step through the mirror and you will be protected. You will also be alone. You will come out into the room and you will choose an exit as ever, but you will do so entirely independently of your party. Will you all choose the same path? Maybe. If you choose this path, you will be saved from death. You will certainly not die...yet."
This was confusing. You glance along the corridor and see one final mirror at the end. It's nothing but inky blackness.
"The third and final option is the darkness. If you can't rely on your friends or yourself then rely on the unknown. Be brave and wait to see what lies beyond. Maybe it will be better for you, maybe it will be worse for you. It won't kill you the second you pass into it, and that is all I can promise. Think carefully now."
The voice disappeared and you were left alone with nothing but mirrors and a headache.
