FORGE

[livestage]

You find yourself in an ornate library.

Now, the library itself isn't huge or grand, it is just a singular room. However, there are plenty of books from ceiling to floor. The books look somewhat old, or at least nothing like what you'd see in modern times, but many of them look well worn and loved, read thousand of times over most likely.

There's plenty of space for those who are tall, and yet it still feels cozy somehow. It's still compact, obviously meant to keep up to 3-4 people comfortably (7-8 will work but it's a little tighter!), but the odd part is that there's still enough light pouring through the window to make it feel refreshing and airy. You can breathe easy in here.

Light? Yes, the large window in the back seems to lead to a yard. The only way out seems to be unlocking it, but the keyhole to the window will not open.

There are places to sit and several books of fairytales, stories, and legends you have certainly NEVER heard of. Some appear ancient and some seem brand new, but no matter the age of the book, there is a bookmark in each one left on a random page inside of the book.

On the wall across from the bookshelves are older portraits, those with a keen eye will recognize the Showmaster in them (and for the newer folk, it looks like the passed out lady weird), but much, much younger. The photos are definitely within the range of somewhere between the toddler years to around 10 years old. They seem to be family photos, her standing with adults and other children her age that resemble her features.

There is also a black cat with purple eyes staring at you.

[takeyoutochurch]

[well since this is immediately familiar, he's going to walk right up to the cat and hold out his hand]

Key, please.

[mrblueskies]

[ perks up from where he's busy scaling the shelves to look for the most interesting/shiniest book: ]

What key?

[takeyoutochurch]

The key to the window.

Don't break anythin' ya can't fix.

[livestage]

[the cat moves away from you :(]

[takeyoutochurch]

[hey wow]

.....................

[are Blessings on, can Lea turn into a wolf. he's gonna turn into a wolf to see if the cat likes that more or less]

[tothosewhobait]

Is that what we are searching for? I take it this is one of those Performances we are to participate in?

[takeyoutochurch]

It ain't what anyone else is searchin' for, probably. This place looks like a spot we've found off the stage. We haven't found a key for the window yet, so we've been lookin' for it.

This is...uh, it's a Performance, but it ain't quite like the usual ones. Usually there's a producer runnin' the show and we got a clear task to do. This one's kinda open-ended.

How does we get our hands on the big thing - [ pointing at the image in zinc's book] the cross thing, not the big guy? We already got the big guy.

Re: SUBMIT ALL QUESTIONS HERE

If he wants it, I'll give it over now. The answer is I can provide.

Re: SUBMIT ALL QUESTIONS HERE

[livestage]

I do love my little sister, and one of my brothers. I have learned you cannot always love your family though. So no.

[As soon as a question is answered, you feel an increase in ▮▮▮▮▮▮▮ ▮▮▮▮▮▮▮▮ within you.]

Re: SUBMIT ALL QUESTIONS HERE

[mrblueskies]

You gave the big guy something - can I have something, too, somethin' real nice? please.

Re: SUBMIT ALL QUESTIONS HERE

[tothosewhobait]

Is a legend it's own sort of curse in a way?

Re: SUBMIT ALL QUESTIONS HERE

[mrblueskies]

So do you really like libraries or somethin'?

Re: SUBMIT ALL QUESTIONS HERE

[mrblueskies]

[ almost immediately after because now he's sus - but he's almost! polite enough not to turn his new rocket launcher on him ]


Hey's now. What was that weird feeling just then?
