tile run - group 3

[soulping]

( circumstances have conspired to separate those who went into the maze, splitting them into three groups, with each group taking one fork in the road.

a wisp of light guides them forward, gleefully bobbing up and down, slowing down just enough so it doesn't lose those following it, then speeding off around the next corner as soon as they start to catch up. )

( looks like the rest of the party has already looked around.

ready to look at the safe? )

[feytality]

[Sure]

[soulping]

( the vault features three turn dials. on the wall next to the safe is a digital display encased in matching metal.

etched into the plate are the words CODES REMAINING, and directly beneath that in the digital display is the numeral 3.

you're going to need 3 different codes. )

[farkle]

[ peeking over ] ...We probably already have two.

[cihuatlatoani]

I believe that one of the codes is "2 3 5." That page was bookmarked in a volume upon the wall.

[cottoncandyface]

That could work.

[feytality]

... Any ideas, guys?

[hunting]

013?

[ladychapels]

[ still sitting on the edge of the desk, ] There's a guy on here counting eight of his fingers and a bunch of shit about being "unlucky".

[cottoncandyface]

813?

[ladychapels]

[ you know what. it's as good a guess as any. ]

We'll see, won't we?

[ pushes off from the desk, squats down in front of the safe, and turns the dials to match. ]

[soulping]

( you input the three digit code 8 - 1 - 3. the digital display briefly displays the message ERROR before returning to its previous numerical value. )

[cottoncandyface]

Well that was a bust

[hunting]

We need three different codes. We have three different clues. We have to put them in separately. Start with the one we know for sure.

[ladychapels]

[ 235, then, this is why Gunsmoke just blows the door off ]

[soulping]

( you input the three digit code 2 - 3 - 5. a cheerful tinkle of music comes from the digital display, and the number on the display changes to 2.

one down! two more to go! )

[feytality]

[Peering around her]

What were the other ones again...?

[farkle]

It should also be considered there's more than 13 considered being unlucky.

[unguilded]

Maybe we can try 138 as well, going with that idea.

[Trying that one?]

[hunting]

Aren't 13 and 8 two separate clues?

[unguilded]

They were both on the computer.

It could be four instead of eight, too.

[Which would ... also make sense as 4 is the number of teams gone, going by Caracal's theory.]

[soulping]

( you input the three digit code 1 - 3 - 8. the digital display briefly displays the message ERROR before returning to its previous numerical value. )

[hunting]

[Going to attempt 013 just to see what happens]
