The Thirtieth Trial

[hot_mess_express]

Who: Trial players
When: Day 63, morning
Where: Trial zone

[The trial zone doesn't exactly appear to be inthe best shape. It's the ruins of an old building, something once grand, perhaps a castle, with a strange statue of sorts with six spheres leading to a large seventh on a pedestal. It's possible t see a forest beyond the walls, though find a way out to that seems impossible, and plants have overgrown almost everything.]

[On the statue's pedestal is an inscription:
Three tribes that brought a storm,
Winter brought them to task.
Eventually things would become warm,
What in return did springtime ask?]

[Not so far beyond it appears to be stairs leading down into the earth. And to the side of that is a throne.]

[And on the throne is....someone new in Senna colors? Though perhaps the hair is enough of a give away. Though those with a keen eye may yet notice she's still wearing her geode still, with the distinctive cutie mark still on it.]

[She's lounged across the throne, legs kicked over one side, elbow resting on the other, head in hand.]

I'm bored. [And she offers a grin that has a dangerous glint to it.]

How about we play a game?

I hope to get information on her transformation from her. What we might do after...

Re: ENDGAME

We can't take it out on her. She's half-possessed.

Re: ENDGAME

[He closes his eyes.] I know. And I fear that if anyone takes it out on her- or if we do not figure out how to help her swiftly- she may be stuck that way. But I do not know how to help her, if our cooperation during her trial is not enough. That is why I wish to find out how she transformed.

Re: ENDGAME

[malignstar]

I don't think anyone here is really the type to take stuff out on each other.

Re: ENDGAME

[bestbrotherever]

Are you certain of that?

Re: ENDGAME

[malignstar]

Fairly sure.

Re: ENDGAME

[bestbrotherever]

Well. I will warn you not be be surprised if you see effigies that look like that demon being destroyed.

Re: ENDGAME

[malignstar]

Are they going to be yours?

Re: ENDGAME

[bestbrotherever]

Yes. Of course I will also offer them to any who want them, as an alternative to hurting Solar herself.

Re: ENDGAME

[malignstar]

I guess that's one way to handle anger.

Re: ENDGAME

[bestbrotherever]

It is, indeed. And a public service, should I choose the right targets for my illusions and magic.

Re: ENDGAME

[malignstar]

[ Quirks a brow ]

The right targets?

Re: ENDGAME

[bestbrotherever]

There are still the gingerbread giants out there in the wider world, ready to crush us. Their ranks could always use thinning.

I do like hunting delicious treats in the wild. They go down with water magic, right? 'Fraid that leaves me out. My stuff is mostly will-sapping, it seems.
