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...

[ He snorts hard. ]

Hell no. Looks more like the other place, but... It's kinda like a void? But there's...floating platforms. A buncha rock structures and...

[Their mythologies might not line up exactly, but he know exactly what kind of place Alex means. That fear returns on his face]

But you still linger...

[rockymountaindie]

[ Despite Ferdinand's fear, Alex looks...relieved. ]

Yeah. We're still here.

Means there's still a chance.

[markofnobility]

I... I hope so.

[he's being rather reserved compared to his usual, but the hope is there on his face regardless]

[rockymountaindie]

...You doin' okay? Anything weighin' on you?

[markofnobility]

Oh, you know.

[he waves it off, as he does]

Oh! Your statue- the one from Clear. We made sure to rescue it from your room!

[rockymountaindie]

[ ...Oh.

Alex kind of freezes up a little. ]

Where, uh... Where'd you put it?

[markofnobility]

With your main one!

[rockymountaindie]

...

[ Alex kind of...wobbles? His vision moves a little, like he's readjusting. His hand rests over his eyes, which look particularly bright and shiny, before they're hidden. ]

Thank you. [ his voice, it cracks with emotion, with- ] It's- it's safe?

[markofnobility]

Yes! Quark and I were very careful. It... felt proper. More so than the one already there, honestly.

[rockymountaindie]

[ He lets out a breath—does he need to do that, or is it habit?—and looks away. ]

Yeah. She- she got stuff like that.
