MOCK ROUND - WEEK 1 INVESTIGATION

[foundationmods]

It had almost been a week since everyone had been brought here.
The days had gone by with no hint of trouble, not from the Witch, or any of her servants. It almost seemed like nothing would happen after all.

Yet, as everyone woke up...something felt different.
It felt...like they were about to take a step into the darkness.🗈

Like they were going to see something that shouldn't be seen....or feel something that shouldn't be felt.

This....was a fake game, right...? Then why....was there this ominous feeling? Like something nearby was just...waiting for them to stumble the right way, bringing them closer to it's hungry mouth...

...

No matter what it is, though, they had to step forward.

They had....to finally, truly start this game.

((OOC: Characters will need to bold locations to look for clues...or the body!))

[some...times]

Well, let's see. I've used it to travel backwards and forwards in time... Just one of these babies can power any machine you can think of indefinitely! Supposedly, they can even bring back the dead.

[artificialhighness]

[Is it time for someone to shove a rose in his mouth in the name of salad and health. Probably. Anyway.]

... I see. There are also such things in my world, but they don't come from magic, powers or minerals. They still defy common logic and sense, but they are part of the fabric of the world.

[Rather than outside of it, the way this seems to be.]

[iblistriggered]

[nooooo NO FLOWER SALAD...]

I think the Chaos Emeralds are as much a part of our world as anything else... they're just, like. Pure energy, crystallized. But what kinds of things are they, then? Technology?

[artificialhighness]

I suppose. The fabric of our homes must be very different indeed.

[It's a sentiment that rises slowly, like the tide at the beach, each time she listens to the vagaries of magic. It's both curious and dangerous, and reminds her that they still have the witch hovering over their shoulder at this point.

The witch and death. She shakes her head.]

Technology, yes. Nanocells. They may grant healing, immortality, and many other blessings.

[Those two are just the most important, probably.]

[iblistriggered]

[Silver ribs her a little, smiling slightly]

It sounds like they may be harnessing the same kinds of energy to me...!

[artificialhighness]

[There's a blink at the ribbing, though she doesn't seem to mind it.]

I'm not sure; I know what the energy I am made of feels like. I would have to see a real Chaos Emerald for a proper comparison.

[Though she's being kind of pedantic about it, she doesn't appear to be against the idea. There's a faint strain of curiosity, actually.]

[iblistriggered]

I wish I had a way to show you... maybe once the game is over, Miss Lambda can give me a real emerald for you to look at?

[you know, before they all go home]
