ALECTRYON

[soulping]

[When the game starts you find yourselves on a platform. At least this part is pretty relaxing as it's large enough to fit a table with six (or seven) chairs around and that may be the place you want to sit at for now. There's several pieces of parchment laying on the table and a box in the center.

Of course, if you were careful you might want to pay attention to what's before you. Because immediately after the platform is a slide that ends in a pit of water? That turns into a dark forest. In what looks like a mile across is another large platform, presumably the end. Though that's all you can see right now.]

[WHAT IS HOPEFUL.]

[I AM NOT SURE HOW TO RESPOND TO THIS EMOTION.]

[But scrolls....]

[He's picking up scrolls and looking through them.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[It's in Latin!]

[And sometimes Greek?!]

Re: DISCUSSION

[untamedwing]

....useless.

[Throwing them aside and just going to. Lean against the wall and try to have a less fuzzy head.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[Hopeful...]

Hnnngh... should we just buy some time? I might be able to move the bookcase in front of the door. The thing outside might go away. I don't think we want to fight through it if we don't have to. I think that might work.

Re: DISCUSSION

[untamedwing]

Yes. Do that.

...

I'll check for secret passageways.

[This is a legit thing all buildings have, right?]

Re: DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[where are you looking first?]

Re: DISCUSSION

[untamedwing]

[Well, he's moving the bookcase, I'll look around that area first.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[it doesn't budge!]

Re: DISCUSSION

[hungryman]

[OKAY, setting down sword and attempting to move bookcase in front of door! Is there anything behind said bookcase? Is it waaaaay too heavy for a person to move? Let's see!]

Re: DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[it's way too heavy to move!]

Re: DISCUSSION

[hungryman]

Hmngh. Okay that's not budging. It's a lot heavier than it looks. Maybe if we pull the stuff out of it?

[systematically starts pulling everything off the bookshelf]

Re: DISCUSSION

[untamedwing]

[Eh, seems legit and might be part of the whole secret passageway thing.]

[EVERYTHING OUT OF THE SHELF.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[NOTHING.

...

Now what?]

Re: DISCUSSION

[angelsweedhaveheardonhigh]

What if we just open the door and smack the tiger with one of the pots, then jump out of the window while it's stunned?

Re: DISCUSSION

[untamedwing]

Are you volunteering to do that?

[Hmmmm, gonna check under the cot.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[angelsweedhaveheardonhigh]

Sure, why not?

[ He shrugs and heads to grab one of the pots. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[untamedwing]

...you are an idiot.

Help Snake move the bookcase. We've already proven I'm not reliable for the physical.

Re: DISCUSSION

[angelsweedhaveheardonhigh]

The bookcase isn't budging. I'd rather try something different.

Re: DISCUSSION

[untamedwing]

Then check the cupboard first before you go get yourself eaten.

Re: DISCUSSION

[angelsweedhaveheardonhigh]

[ He rolls his eyes. ]

Sure, why not?

[ He goes to check the cupboard. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[it's just an empty cupboard and nothing under the cot!]

Re: DISCUSSION

[hungryman]

[Trying to move the bookshelf in any way possible now. Any way to get it to move/budge/wiggle.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[soulping]

[Nothing happens.

But surely there's something else to try?]

Re: DISCUSSION

[hungryman]

Hnghh... are bookshelves normally this heavy?

There's got to be something else in here that's useful.

[sees teammate decide to go after tiger with a pot, grabs sword just in case this goes terribly]
