TAKSHAKA

[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 do you think about the rope, the hook, and the tent?

Re: DISCUSSION

[barrette]

Why the tent?

Re: DISCUSSION

[pchaaair]

Wouldn't the tent be useful? Since, it could have a lot of uses.

Re: DISCUSSION

[barrette]

True! The rope, hook and tent it is!

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

What Wren said. We've got no idea what this entails, but a tent can provide shelter, or we can take it apart for fabric if necessary.

Re: DISCUSSION

[saburai]

It seems to me that we should take the torch with us instead, considering how dark the forest looks.

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

I recently got a skill to generate fire back.

Re: DISCUSSION

[saburai]

Can you do so without igniting the entire forest?

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

...

Probably.

Re: DISCUSSION

[saburai]

...Forgive me for not being filled with confidence at that assertion.

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

Might not be relevant anyway.

Re: DISCUSSION

[saburai]

Do we want to risk depending on your magic for light, then?

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

... Maybe not. But I don't think we'll need it much.

Re: DISCUSSION

[saburai]

Even so, it's an item we know will be useful, as opposed to only potentially being so.

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

... No, I think the torch is a trap. Look at what's immediately before the forest.

Re: DISCUSSION

[saburai]

...Ah. If we have to carry it, then the torch might be put out by the water, is what you're suggesting.

I did not think of that, but you're right.

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

[Nods.]

All that's left that bothers me is the fruit.

Re: DISCUSSION

[saburai]

It doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the items, true...perhaps it has some secret use? Such as luring away a guard dog, or the like.

Not that that sounds like a typical obstacle course task, of course.

Re: DISCUSSION

[takewing]

Oh, they do turn skills off sometimes.

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

...

Then what's even the point of getting them back?

Re: DISCUSSION

[takewing]

I suppose it's in the interests of a more even competition.

Re: DISCUSSION

[experiencepoints]

Ugh.
