...alright. I have a couple of questions. How? do you calm her, I mean. And why couldn't you ask anybody but us. And [ boops his snoot. ] you didn't answer my question about the author. Who? [ he's not dropping this. ]

[wooliefrand]

I told you! Death. She's almost as old as time, and wrote some of the ancient texts.

As for you guys. . .well, I considered Clover, but they're rather young, aren't they? They wouldn't want to do it. Thistle seems. . .rowdy, and might offend her. Rose DEFINITELY offended her. Daffodil seems a bit, self serving, and Lily should be on standby in case anything happens on this side of the realm.

So. . .that leaves you all.

[noarchitact]

...ah. My apologies. For some reason I didn't think that was an answer to my question so much as the problem that you needed help with. [ hooboy. that has him nervous, since he doesn't want to offend her. ] What would you like us to do? Rose upset her, so you want us to... try to fix that?

And I imagine asking her about those texts would make matters worse. Blossom is using them and clearly doesn't know what the hell she's doing...

[wooliefrand]

Mm, she's on a whole other level, it's true. But I think she'll be more complacent. . .if we give her this!

[HUP. He spits up a crystal collar. It glows faintly with an other worldly energy.]

It was stolen from her. . .

[noarchitact]

[ is he allowed to touch it? ]

Is that her collar? [ ... ] Did Blossom take it?

[wooliefrand]

[he can; it's a warm sensation but not burning, though he'll instinctively feel like he shouldn't hold on to it for too long]

She did, yes. Rose spoke of a debt, did they not? This would settle it.

[noarchitact]

[ sighs. ] And did she take that book from her too? [ he tried to take that >x> ] Anyway. I imagine that rune [ point. ] is the gate. Or will be... [ he sets the collar down for a moment. ] Can you hold that with no problem or does it hurt you too?

[wooliefrand]

I can swallow it!

But one of you will need to grasp it. . .as you die. Your soul can hold on to it far better than your physical body.

And yes, this is the entry point. It's for going into, not pulling demons or entities out of it though.

[noarchitact]

[ opens mouth,
closes mouth. ]

Explain how this is going to work.

We all go in. One of us... dies? Or... are all of us dying...

[wooliefrand]

Gladly, sir!

[He uncoils himself, revealing a small plate of delicious but highly suspicious white berries.]

First, you all would need to touch the sigil, indicating your intent and resolve. Then, one of you needs to make sure you're clutching the artifact.

Then, consume a berry. It'll be quick and painless, so when you return to your bodies, it'll be as if you were simply sleeping.


So it's somewhat of a suicide pact, but for a good cause.

[noarchitact]

[ SUS BERRIES. ]

[ going to pick up the snake. sorry, sir, but... what else is under you? ]

I see. Another question, sorry about all of them, [ sets him back down, wups. ] but do we all need to die for this or can... some of us die? Is there a min/max here?

[wooliefrand]

[snek is easily picked up]

I'm sure Blossom has explained how Herd Mentality powers this place, the more of you the better. If one or two of you wish to remain behind, however, that should be fine.

[noarchitact]

[ a good snek. ]

...mm, and we've seen it in action. It's powerful. [ so something to consider. ] Do you have a name?

[wooliefrand]

I don't use pseudonyms like Blossom and Stormy. You can simply call me the Snake.

[noarchitact]

I see. [ what if we call you ekans? ] I'm Fantasia. Might as well introduce ourselves before we all poentially drink the kool-aid eat the murder berries.

[wooliefrand]

[he is not a pokemon!!]

Pleased to make your acquaintance as well. Be sure to discuss with the rest of your flock, of course.

[noarchitact]

Of course of course. [ brb snek. ]
