[As soon as you enter the game, you find yourself in a vast, seemingly endless forest. The wind blows cold and harsh, whistling through the trees, and you can barely see what’s in front of you. The only light in the area comes from the moon shining down upon you, mostly blocked by the thick branches twisting together overhead. In the distance, it's almost as if you can see and here flashes of movement, moments of sound (a wolf howling, the sound of crying, or even that of screams). Try as you might, you can't tell where any of these sounds come from... Perhaps it would be best to explore and find out. Stranger yet, you feel as if you must explore...

From here, you can go either left or right. The two paths are indistinguishable from each other.]

[rednecking]

The hell is this?

[no I gotta bitch first]

[perspire]

It looks like a forest.

[rednecking]

Yeah, thanks Captain Obvious. I meant, I thought we were watchin' a damn movie or somethin'.

CORN MAZE

[soulping]

[After walking for a while, the trees become more sparse, until they disappear. All the while, it's as if you can feel somebody watching you...

You come to a corn field. The plants rise up high, past your head. Luckily, you can see an entrance not too far from where you stand. There isn’t a sound to be heard except the sounds of cicadas somewhere in the distance.

Do you enter? Strangely, you strongly feel as though you should.]

O-kay . . . this ain't gettin' creepy or nothing.

Re: CORN MAZE

[perspire]

N-not at all.

Re: CORN MAZE

[rednecking]

This is some M. Night Shyamalan bullshit.

What now?

Re: CORN MAZE

[perspire]

[ that's some tall corn

pausing at the entrance, trying to peer into it a bit more before he walks in ]

Re: CORN MAZE

[soulping]

[It's too dark to see very far into the maze.]

Re: CORN MAZE

[perspire]

[ looking along the ground at the entrance of the maze, to see if there's anything there... ]

HOSPITAL

[soulping]

[Soon, you come to a large building. There isn’t much to be found on the outskirts of the place, but should you follow the urge to enter the space, you’ll find what once might have been a lobby of some kind. A layer of dust covers a plain tile floor, and there’s a receptionist’s desk near the entrance - of course, there’s nobody to be found behind it any longer.

What’s more notable than the look of the place, however, is the sound. As soon as you enter, a speaker high above crackles to life, and a feminine voice begins speaking.]

The doctor will see you now.

[The voice comes to a halt with a long, chilling scream, interrupted by an unhinged laugh - and then the sounds stop altogether, fading to an eerie silence.

There are two doors, one to the left and one to the right.]

[STOPPING TO LEAN OVER AND CATCH HIS BREATH AND—]

This ain't no better than the damn maze!

Re: HOSPITAL

[redatheart]

I don't think any of this is going to be particularly safe.

[goddamn it, echoes, why you gotta]

Re: HOSPITAL

[perspire]

Which means we should be prepared for anything...

Re: HOSPITAL

[perspire]

[ well, Liter is gonna look around the desk to see if there's anything lying around........... ]

Re: HOSPITAL

[soulping]

[Normal things for a office desk; a file folder, a computer, a notebook, pens and pencils.]

Re: HOSPITAL

[perspire]

[ well... a pen is better than nothing, picks it up ]

Re: HOSPITAL

[redatheart]

[iiiis there any sort of information in those files or that notebook?

gonna snoop too, because. i mean. why go looking for trouble just yet]

LEFT HALLWAY

[soulping]

[You enter the hallway. It's even filthier than the lobby. The windows are broken and poorly boarded up. Above the doorway, the words "PSYCH WARD" are written in what looks to be blood. Through the door, you can hear screams and sobs; it sounds like a great number or people are crying out for help.

Will you go to them, or will you look around beforehand?]

Re: LEFT HALLWAY

[perspire]

[ I'M LOOKING AROUND ]

Re: LEFT HALLWAY

[soulping]

[He finds a kit with various medical supplies, and a small bottle with a clear liquid labeled "antidote".]

ASYLUM

[soulping]

[As soon as you enter this room, it's obvious where the sounds came from. There are rows upon rows of beds, each with a patient strapped firmly down; what's more, most of those patients are screaming and thrashing around under the restraints. The ones that aren't screaming are sobbing and moaning in agony.

The perceptive will notice that each patient looks severely underweight. When one of them sees you, they start crying out to you to help them, to let them go. Once one of them starts, the rest begin to beg and plead as well.

What will you do?]

Re: ASYLUM

[rednecking]

[ho . . . ly . . . shit.

What the hell is even going on in here]

Re: ASYLUM

[perspire]

--We should help them.
