AMALTHEA

[You suddenly find yourselves standing at the beginning of a large hedge maze, one with walls that extend so far above your head you're not quite certain where they end. There is no entrance behind you, and the bushes are so thick and full of thorns that attempting to crawl through them will result in numerous scratches]

[There is no way to go but forward]

And people get "crushes"...

[ so heart also seems valid ]

[Nerds.]

...I think stomach is a smarter choice, between the two though. It's.. more literal?

...It is a riddle, literalness is nonimportant.

[A little irked that the sphinx didn't respond tbh]

.....

I also feel like Heart could fit into more possible meanings later..

We could also simply increase my bloodlust.

This is hardly a challenge to keep under control.

[ and right back to grinding her teeth, though she doesn't say anything ]

I would rather.

We not go that route...

What happens if we get it wrong?

[ looks more over at the Sphinx about this one ]

We miss out on the chance to get an antidote, I would say.

And will possibly have to give her what she wants ourselves.

If we do that, shouldn't we get the ingredient anyway?

[You can pull some of my teeth for an antidote.]

I guess we'll ... see.

I don't mind which we choose. They can both apply, so ... it's a matter of if our gamble is correct.

Stomach.

It crushes and pounds and destroys almost as well as teeth.. and it's part of the digestive system too..

[ another one of her wheezing noises, possibly a nebulous agreement noise.

you're welcome for the contribution ]

Okay. Let's do that then.

[ nods, feeling on edge about what the results might be of this, but he'll go along with what the team decides ]

[ thickly, ] She didn't say no. So there can be more than one answer, right?
