Canis's heart
The moment you step through the mirror door, you seem to - slip, as if the floor were made of wax, but when you fall there is no floor to catch you; only darkness.
You fall for some time. Eventually, it feels as if you're not falling at all - but rather, floating . . . and some time after that, it almost feels as if you have no body at all. The light from which the entrance of Canis's heart is disappears quickly, and you're left with nothing - not even your own screams, if you have any; nothing seems to leave your throat, and there's no sound at all, besides. Even the rushing of wind is gone, and your own pulse seems to fade away. . .
. . . what penetrates your consciousness next is the soft sound of music. Someway or another, you find yourself on a white platform; you're dressed in plain clothes of your team color, all items gone from your person. In front of you, four stones float; all perfectly square and identical to each other. Each have images - a sword, a staff, a bow and arrow, and a sparkling circle . . . you understand what you must do.

-3 HP
. . . oh wait, there it goes. It's probably because the shade isn't actually a shade but the large, unhinged jaws of a giant creature and you just stepped into its poisonous saliva.
It's too late to regret anything, though! It snaps its jaws shut, intending to swallow you whole.
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
but for now, trying to pull out his sword to STAB THE CREATURE IN THE TONGUE ]
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
You manage to stab the snake, which stops your otherwise incredibly fast descent into dying and ending back on the title screen, but it doesn't seem to do much damage.
On the bright side though, it doesn't seem to be moving much anymore, and if you can avoid falling down you can probably get yourself out without dying. . .maybe. . .
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
And suddenly, the snake jaws snap shut.
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
I swear Canis if this thing eats me--!
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
It feels like hitting stone, probably because it is stone, and suddenly, it feels like there's an earthquake at your feet. . . the snake shakes itself violently, trying to get you to let go of your sword, or get your sword out of its flesh. Either way.
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
but he's trying to hold on tight to his sword, but it's hard when you're likely covered in poisonous snake saliva......... ]
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
Re: > AREA █WO: DU██
On the bright side, you're going to die of poison before you die by snake swallowing.
