TIAMAT

[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]

[smooth.

Offering him a hand up]

[taking it]

Ahh, thanks. And you got us out of there. Thanks again. It was getting kind of close.

Kind of close?

[she pulls him to his feet] What do you mean?

[getting up, brushing himself off.]

Something started coming out of the mirror.

Oh, that. Did you smash the damn thing?

Well... I kicked it when it went for Lilac's throat, but we were busy trying to get out.

We smashed ours; that is how we got into this hallway.

...I'll try that next time!

. . . I certainly hope there is no "next time".

Obviously. So what now?

We . . . continue searching for a way out?

Works for me. We should still try to find the other teams.

I do not think we are having any more luck with that . . .

Wait. Then, we could've actually gotten through by switching places with them?

[I was expecting to find secret items on the other side, not... a way out.]

There was no switching involved.
