The Twenty-Third Trial

[advisories]

Who: trialgoers etc!
When: Day 50, morning
Where: the ~trial zone~

[Another morning, another Trial! Ugh.

At least this one seems normal, starting out with a shake and the Hermit’s booming voice:]

"Good morning, Heroes. You can guess why you're being called, but before we begin I have an official statement. The Prince of Stars and associates were not responsible for yesterday's Trial. It appears the system was copied by a Malicious entity -- we apologize for any confusion and are doing our best to locate this entity and find a way to prevent any such incidents in the future.

In the meantime, we've scheduled a low-stress Trial for today to lift your spirits. With teamwork and a little silliness, let's search for unity and peace within ourselves."

[The Hermit's tent is in the clearing, awaiting your arrival.]

Aside from, you know, that. You'd think that would be enough hazard.

[schrodingerscockroach]

You'd think, but think about all the hazards you can run into on a single planet.

The universe is big and full of plenty of things that want to kill you.

[awakenerd]

How comforting.

[schrodingerscockroach]

It's not all bad. Sometimes you make friends.

[awakenerd]

Well, that makes it worthwhile.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Usually does.

[rean gonna get another hair ruffle.]

[awakenerd]

[Laughing, oh no.]

That's true though. I'd brave space for friends.

[schrodingerscockroach]

It does make the threat of brain slugs a lot more bearable.

[awakenerd]

Pfft, what's a few brain slugs in the quest for friendship.

[schrodingerscockroach]

A small price to pay.

[awakenerd]

...Do you miss being in space ever?

[schrodingerscockroach]

....not really? I mean, it does all look cool, sure, but I really like things like fresh food.

And not being tiny hull crack away from death.
