Week Six

[letsplayamod]

You've survived, for lack of better wording, the latest week of trials and tribulations. This one had been more costly than most: Typhon's machinations have brought your group to nearly half the size it was when Athena first brought you to this island. Whether it ends with him or with you is still too soon to make out. One thing's for certain. Things cannot be allowed to continue as they are.

Speaking of continuing, the next floor has been revealed to you. Just how far down this island goes is a bit of a mystery, but you get the feeling that you're close to something important. Maybe that thing Athena wanted you to find before Typhon does. You can ruminate on that as you watch the waters below. Waves still lap at the cliffs, but it all seems lower than it did weeks ago. Like the ocean itself is shrinking...

[ looks around. looks around again.

hm. well she's not about to talk to anyone who doesn't talk to her first, considering she's pretty sure her bridges are all burnt, so. ]

...I will say, I'm not sure we all deserve this opportunity.

[yourheroine]

Snow White?

…do you still believe what you said before?

[atu709]

... I'll be honest, I don't know what to think anymore.

[yourheroine]

Not knowing is better than a bad end, right?

[atu709]

That's the thing about endings - you don't usually wind up still going afterward. I think if anything's been shaken, it's my belief in endings at all.

[yourheroine]

Endings not being real...

That...that would be nice, wouldn't it?

[atu709]

I'm beginning to suspect it's more of a blessing than a curse, how off the rails my story has gone. Some benefit to the whole "damn the narrative" approach.

[fillets]

Maybe not, but what does that matter? You've been given it either way.

Oh, and your birds are still moving, by the way! [ it's literally on her shoulder ] Is that normal...?

[atu709]

Not wrong.

[ oh! she smiles at that. ]

In theory, yes. Though I imagine they'll want to rest at some point.

[fillets]

... Forever, you mean? Or in place of sleep?

[sweetsynergy]

[More than a bit icily.]

Snow.

[pariunt]

It's...

I'm glad to see you again, Snow White.
