TIAMAT

[soulping]

[When you come to, you find yourself locked in a small, cramped, antique elevator. One wall is covered with a large, ornate mirror, and a chandelier hangs above your head. The doors are made of metal and shut very, very tightly. The lights are off.]

[You hear two familiar voices echo distantly in your mind]

LET ME GO, Ǧ̲̖̩̞̣̲̌Ĩ͎R̞̩͎̝̍L̹̳̫̾͛Ȉ͙͈̬͐͒ͭ̄̌̊E̥̥̓ͨ!

I won't let you hurt them!

[Before you have time to say anything, the elevator suddenly jolts, before it begins to plummet. Your heart drops to the pit of your stomach as you fall, fall, fall, and then. . .]

[Suddenly it stops. You're thrown off balance, possibly to the point of where you crash into a wall or a nearby neighbor. All is silent]

FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[soulping]

[You find yourself standing in a lengthy hotel hallway. The decor is just as old as the elevator you escaped from moments before, although everything is worn and dilapidated. The floor is covered in a faded red and yellow floral patterned carpet; the walls are plastered with torn, ripped and tarnished wallpaper. The lights above you are dim-- so dim, that they cast a yellow glow around the area. Some of the light bulbs flicker on and off in random intervals, occasionally dousing the area in darkness]

[The hallway stretches ahead of you for what seems like forever, with no ending in sight. If you stare into the distance for too long, it almost seems to bend and shift and twist right before your very eyes, like someone decided to use the smudge tool on your surroundings. . .]

[Lining the walls of the hallway are twelve elevators, with six on each side. Each one is colored for each team in Kyriakos. Next to the elevators you see a sign: Floor 3463]

[The fuck is this.

Ochre's still bolting to the Henwen door and looking it over, though]

[carptricks]

[squints through the dimness, also focused on the team colored elevators]

Is everyone else. . .?

Re: FLOOR 3463

[tatsumi_textiles]

It'd make sense, right?

There any way ta get these open?

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[tatsumi_textiles]

[Since the other elevators all seem empty Ochre's yelling to get everyone's attention]

Hey! Since this is everyone we can get, we probably oughtta figure out where ta go from here.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[ghettobatman]

Any sign of an exit?

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[zeroics]

It says we're on floor three-thousand plus... so not a window.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[ghettobatman]

Three thousand?

[jesus christ]

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[hyanaimne]

You mean you do not see one?

[lightly, cuz she's an asshole, but she's joking]

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[ghettobatman]

For some reason, I don't. Maybe it's dark in here?

[it's fine he's playing along]

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[showyouthesight]

We could check out the walls for anything that seems loose.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[tatsumi_textiles]

I mean, we did get out through the mirror.

[Kicks a wall]

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[showyouthesight]

[He's going to mess with the wallpaper to see if any comes off in larger than normal chunks.]

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[wherethewildthingsare]

Please tell me we don't have to go down the hallway.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[carptricks]

[HA HA. . .]

Where else would we go?

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[tatsumi_textiles]

Looks like it.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[carptricks]

I think we should head forward.

[he nods at the hallway]

Move on, get out of here as quickly as we can.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[tatsumi_textiles]

Right.

Everyone else okay with movin' forward?

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[zeroics]

Any way we can, basically.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[shiroganeheir]

No exits that I have seen, but I have not ventured very far. The light is quite poor. Is there someone who can create some kind of light or torch? If we had better light, we could have a much more intense search.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[tatsumi_textiles]

We got our powers, so-

Hey, Clover, can you make a light?

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[hyanaimne]

[did someone call for some light?

Holding her hand out and conjuring up a small fireball]

Like this?

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[purple_sister]

Well, the hallway seems like the obvious choice. Or at least, it seems like the only real direction we have to go in.

Re: FLOOR 3463 (the team elevator floor)

[tatsumi_textiles]

That's pretty much our only option.
