WEEK 5 MINGLE - AMARANTHUS

[foundationmods]

Another trial, another horrible outcome.

This time, it affected so many people...and yet, they still weren't done.
Who would be killed next?
Would they be able...to handle whatever happened?🗈

Still, things were just the same as they had been the past few weeks.

The goats and servants were still around, and so too were the witches.
It was all becoming routine at this point.
Was that a good thing, or a bad one...?
It was...too hard to tell, now...

...Either way, they were now closer to the end.
So, like always...they had to see it through.

Okay, so I think we've figured out all the pairings...

The White Flower and Purple Heart weigh the same,
the Yellow Smiley Face and Black Blood weigh the same,
the Green Water and Blue Angry Face weight the same,
and the Orange Fire and Red Witch's Hat weigh the same.

...I feel like there's some positive and negative connotations going on here too, so how should we set them up on the scales?

[improbablenotimpossible]

Under normal circumstances, you would put like with like... but given what we know so far.

[He rubs his chin thoughtfully]

[incrediblystressedout]

Well, scales are about balance, right? Good things balance out bad?

[keydomhearts]

Huh. So Smile and angry should be opposites? And the fire and water?

[aleph_armed]

...While that's true, I'm a bit wary about splitting the scale into a good side and a bad side.

[youkaiwatch]

I don't know that there's an objective way of splitting all those things up into good versus bad anyway.

[anonnomnomnom]

What’s good or bad between hearts or flowers, or fire and hats...

[aleph_armed]

The flower and the heart I can't be sure of, but while the fire and hat both represent a witch, one represents a witch being burned.

[anonnomnomnom]

Oh, right. Nirrti uses fire so much, I forgot.

[That's why she uses fire, though.......?]

[keydomhearts]

I don't know if I would call it good or bad, but opposites or opposing forces. Like the... I just don't know which would be the opposite for the purple one.

[anonnomnomnom]

Maybe those two are the same and it doesn't matter...

[keydomhearts]

Yeah, it could be! Do we know what would happen if we mess up?

[anonnomnomnom]

Do we get cursed again this time?

[Not that they got cursed that last time, thanks to a slew of sleuthing and luck.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

We could always ask.

[aleph_armed]

I don't think it's actually possible for us to mess up at this point, just...

[She is. Concerned about stuffing a bunch of negative stuff on one side.]

[keydomhearts]

Okay, let's just do it! I can help you that way if anything happens, it'll be shared.

[ LETS YOLO IT ]

[aleph_armed]

[She... She really doesn't want to YOLO it, but...]

...We're never going to figure out the flower and the heart anyways. There are too many meanings there. All right, go ahead and do it. Just remember that the ones that weigh the same need to be on opposite sides.

[keydomhearts]

Okay!

[youkaiwatch]

I feel like we're probably overthinking this.

[keydomhearts]

Yeah, we might be.
