OMETOTCHTLI

[The room you step into looks like it could be a miniature ballroom, complete with stained glass windows and vast, ornate mirrors.

Your team's column is set into one wall, easily accessible but as impregnable as ever. One of the mirrors may prove almost as interesting, if you can tear your eyes away from your trapped teammate. Through it, you are somehow able to see every other team's column and what is inside, though nothing beyond that.

The floor beneath your feet polished, patterned wood, inlaid with the pattern of a grand sundial in your team's colors. In the center of the pattern stands a pedestal, upon which sits a collection of colorful glass ornaments. It looks like there's room for other items, but there's nothing else to be found just yet . . . ]

[okay well that discussion isn't going as planned so]

We're gonna go ahead and follow these stupid rules for now. You're not gonna drown, got that?

--Don't hurt yourselves just for me.

We don't know what we've gotta do yet, maybe it won't be so bad. An' even if it is, it's still better than lettin' you die, yeah? So just stay calm an' let us get you outta there.
