ROUND 5 WATCHING POST

[foundationmods]

Everyone who was there in some shape or form for the meeting on March 1st gets a notice that soon, the location where they'll have to go to watch what happened in the Winchester Incident will be made available for them. Frisk requests a list of those going to see what happened, but doesn't seem to discourage high numbers.

And shortly before the 30th, those that signed up will finally get a name and place - The Hayes Mansion, only a little bit away by drive from the Winchester House. As they drive, the more magically inclined might be able to sense a powerful barrier emanating from the direction the Winchester House is located, though they'll be unable to see anything.

Arriving there, they'll find that any and all other guests have been removed from the Hotel resort, and there's a sign on the door saying that it is Closed for major renovation and fumigation, which would explain the outfits you were given to be 'seen' walking into the place with, as well as all the vans and 'containers' you were told to put your belongings into.

Once inside, a helpful staff member directs you to put the costumes into a specific bin for collection- unless, of course, you would like to keep wearing them - and then another directs you to the front desk, where a pleasant, yet authoritative man is waiting.

[WELL EVERYONE SURE YOTE.]

Please try your barrier - anything!

[excavated]

Alright. I don't know if it'll do much of anything now [ because everyone sure did yeet ] but that thing, whatever it is, has a lot of bad spiritual energy. Anyway. . . Fuuka Shourai! [ GOING TO ATTEMPT AND USE A WIND SPELL ON THE BLACK FOG in an attempt to redirect it away from the others but trying to keep it inside the room and try to create a barrier of wind between the others and the fog, will it do anything? ]

[le_mat]

Spiritual energy? My spells seem to be helping but I dunno if I have anything strong enough to clean that thing!

[excavated]

Yeah! If you don't, if there's someone else that does-- or has a similar level, then work together to exorcise it!

[duskhound]

...If it is bad spiritual energy, my Duskbreakers and magic might help, but it's... not exactly the ideal choice here...

[Look, all my magic is fire-based and this is still a House.]

[justonezero]

We don't want to destroy the house by mistake, either.

[Wowiee look at him, not yeeting himself in again. So impressive. He's still tense as he watches the others, however.]

[excavated]

Can you possibly just do a small spell directed at the fog itself?

[duskhound]

...I could try, but it's still fire-based... Do you think it's safe?

[excavated]

If the fire gets too large, I have both water and air spells that can counteract it doesn't damage this place too much.

[duskhound]

All right, I'll try...

[And so she transforms, and... By the time the transformation sequence is finished, the fog has been resolved. Oh.

...Well, maybe she'll stay transformed just in case.]

...Sorry I wasn't of much use here.

[excavated]

It's okay. Even if you couldn't help then, you can still help in the future. That's what matters.

[le_mat]

I can try!

[And there goes Nine having the same thought]

If it doesn't work I can try and buff someone else doing magic-

[foundationmods]

[It works! The fog is pushed aside, safely barriered off.

...Actually, it seems to curl in on itself when this happens, becoming a ball of floating black fog.]

[literalidiotball]

... I-is it gone?

[ He isn't getting anywhere close until it is. ]

[excavated]

It's not gone yet, but you'll have to make sure to stay behind the barrier until it is. I can keep it up for a while at least.

[literalidiotball]

R-Right...

[ HE IS SHAKING LIKE A LEAF AS HE POKES HIS HEAD INTO THE ROOM.

How many boxes are left? ]
