The Twenty-Fifth Trial [Mirror] - Winners and Endgame

Who: Heroes
When:Day 52, night
Where: near the Train

The rain falls harder, and the snake sneers at you as you exit the temples... Lightning strikes and the snake laughs like thunder... But that's all, the mocking laughter rings in your ears as the scenery shifts back to the normal Train area. Those who revive will do so near the Train as the winners and survivors reappear.

Ginger and Licorice double win for both surviving and targeting a Priest! For these teams they get 800 points.

Jasmine wins for surviving! They get 500 points.

Everyone on a winning team is revived and fully healed.

Everyone else... Is revived. And healed. However in whatever death wounds they received they have, instead of scars, white scales for their skin.

Smaller wounds will regenerate in a one to two days and will leave scales instead of scars unless healed otherwise.

All Kami remain hungry and able to shift to their monster form for the next day or so. Only meat will relieve this hunger.

Any Kami that were mad at the end of the game will retain a bit of mental instability for a day, in whatever form you prefer.

Priests, if they normally have powers, will find themselves somewhat weaker for a day.

It is not ICly known that these effects will wear off.

Do you find discussions of impending danger calming?

[it's an honest question, not truly disingenuous. after all, forewarned is forearmed it's easier to be calm when you know what you're up against.

but still. DANGER.]

...I am not especially good company.

No, it's not that. But in a situation that I can't do anything about, a danger I have to face-- it's reassuring to have others by my side. You didn't have any reason to, but you did so anyway. It reminded me that I wasn't alone.

[Powerlessness isn't a feeling that she's unaccustomed to.]

...as I am now, I really don't have much choice but to rely on others.

[It's too late, you know. Towa has determined that she's a friend.]

[....

holy moly you are so pure. she is not sure what to do.]

Well, there are other people to rely on, certainly. Even ones who do not seem that way.

Heehee. So I’m learning.

[Including you, missy

Towa feels like she owe so many people already.]

I hope that I can do the same for you and the others to repay you all for your kindness someday

[wow no

towa no!]

Ms Herschel, truly, you need not go out of your way. It was hardly a large kindness, more basic courtesy.

[why are you so SOFT]

Maybe I don’t have to, but I still want to.

[Nothing you can say will change her mind.]

There are many areas that I’m lacking in, but— I like to think that supporting people is one of the things I can do pretty well.

I can understand that.

[She can't judge her for that. After all--]

After my parents died, I tried to be as self-sufficient as possible. I started working twice as hard to get a scholarship to pay for my schooling so that I wouldn't become a burden on my aunt and uncle, even though I knew they'd never see it that way.

It's important to have those things that you can do for yourself.

But... I think it's okay to run into things that you can't or even don't want to do on your own. Whether it's because it's difficult or it's more efficient...

So I want you to know that if you ever have a time like that... it's okay to come to me. I might not have a solution, but I'll always be happy to make us some tea and listen.
