Malchik Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 The princess's expertise does not extend to sensing what is around corners. There is no sound, not even of breathing. There are no people in the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThetaOrionis01 Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Lurel cautiously takes a few steps closer towards the room. "I'm sure Midge would be able to tell if there's danger," he mumbles, more to reassure himself than the others. He turns to look at the others. "I think it would probably be better if we don't all go in at once.... just in case it's a trap. I'll go in first. Midge, shout if you sense danger. Princess - could you keep an eye on the passage behind us and alert us if anyone approaches?" He stops at the entrance to the room, and peers ahead.

Switch Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Ford follows Lurel to the entrance. "Two heads are better than one, as they say. I'll come with you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 You find four carved heads, one in each corner. They have intense stares. Both Ford and Lurel hear the following words in their heads. "We will help you if you bring the child. We will not harm him, nor will we keep him here long. Otherwise you can proceed without our help but one of you will certainly die." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 "The child...? Does it mean Midge?" Ford looks around the room at the faces and shivers slightly. "Can we trust them you think...?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chunky_Moose Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Lisette looked confusedly at Ford. Is he talking to himself or something.... "Who are you talking to Ford?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Ford calls out to Lisette. "The heads... probably another one of those 'voice in your head' things. Couldn't you hear them?" He pauses for a moment. "I think they want Midge for some reason. They claim they want to help?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chunky_Moose Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Lisette looked at Ford and then to the faces and then to Midge. Why would they want Midge? What could they possibly want that meant that they would have need for a child...Lisette screwed up her face and thought hard. Perhaps they wanted the spoon. She looked at Midge and felt uneasy, she did not want Midge to be harmed by the faces. She expressed so to Ford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThetaOrionis01 Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Lurel took a deep breath. "Bring the child," he mutters. "Perhaps they do mean Midge. Perhaps there is another child in here somewhere that we need to find. Can we trust them, though?" Lurel gnaws his lip anxiously. If he does not comply with the heads' requests, he will be responsible for the death of at least one of the members of his group - if the heads are to be trusted. If the heads can be trusted, then Midge will be safe. But what if not? Lurel sighs. It is not a decision he can make. "All right, everyone," he announces to all the others. "There are four carved heads in there, and this time they sort of spoke to me. They said they wanted us to bring 'the child' - and promised not to harm him, or to keep him here long. If we do they will help us. If we don't want to we can go on without their help." He does not mention the assured death of one party member they heads foretold - he does not want to put pressure on Midge, or on any of the others. "The question is of course - do we trust them? And is it Midge they mean?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinJiOh Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 OOC: sry im late peoples, it was my birthday on the 20th and have been busy since IC:"I dunno... maybe it is me they want, perhaps they wish to know about Mara. Then again, maybe they want somebody else? It would be wrong to instantly assume that i would be the only child amongst these walls." "But seeing as i do meet the prerequisites, and they mean to do me no harm, or to keep me here for a prolonged, i think it would be best to just merely try. Any help in this place is welcomed."
