FINAL INVESTIGATION

FINAL INVESTIGATION


[The morning of the last day-the day of the deadline promised by the Elder Steward--there is a loud CRACK that echoes through the Mansion. It comes above, over, and around them.

Indeed, it seems to originate from outside.

Those who go outside will find themselves staring at a sky that is cracking everywhere. The cracks Osomatsu had seen before had somehow spread over the days unchecked. Now, the cracks become larger and larger, until finally, the sky itself breaks.

Glass-like pieces fall downwards as it shatters, dissipating lone before they hit the ground into sparkles. A cool breeze suddenly blows through the garden, while the sun suddenly appears for the first time, shining high in the sky. A...slightly creeping-looking, laughing sun, but that doesn't seem to be an illusion, unfortunately. Also it doesn't look ready to swoop down to attack them, which might be a small comfort.

The hole in the wall that had been made earlier is still there, large enough to crawl through. And when they do, the Strangers will find themselves in a more open grassy field, with a beach to the south.

The nice weather and grass, however, is not all that is there. It's clear there are other places in this complex to explore.]





[Before anyone can react, there is the sudden telltale ticking that begins in their heads, and their investigation scrolls appear. It's clear that the Stewards have started a countdown for them to get to the Temple, which sits beyond their immediate area, within a forest of trees that the grass transforms into. But, perhaps, the Strangers can use this to their advantage. Now, they know they have a time limit to search these places for more information about just why they are there.

Perhaps, now, they might have a chance to find something useful.

There are six strangers left. Best get to work.]

[well. it's nice to be out of that dreary mansion for a change. but now they have bigger things to worry about. there are only six of them, and they have to explore these new places]

Guess we should split up. [and if anyone wants to add anything...]

That's a good idea, but... that thing up in the sky... do you see it too?


[it would be good to know exactly how compromised her sanity is before attempting another search. The last time she got a room full of blood for her trouble.]
relieable: is not the end of the world (being compared to a muppet)

...

;he looks up. he knows what she means, but he has to look at it again, too]

I see it. But I'm pretending I'm not seeing it.
incendiarize: (Today I'm speaking my mind)

[personal profile] incendiarize 2019-05-23 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, me too. As long as we're all seeing the same something.
whiterosefoes: (stare)

[personal profile] whiterosefoes 2019-05-23 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh! [Wow, he actually can. Surprising. But not as exasperating as anything else here.] Can't blame you there.

I think I still want to look round the beach. Unless that thing is going to come down and gobble us up.

[well let's go before we think too much about that.]
relieable: (now we play the waiting game)

[personal profile] relieable 2019-05-23 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[YEAH LET'S NOT THINK ABOUT THE SUN EATING US]

Okay. I'll head that way, too. [south, he means. but Harriet can take the beach]
whiterosefoes: (Take me on)

[personal profile] whiterosefoes 2019-05-23 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Good luck....

[SHE IS PREPARED TO FIGHT A GREAT MANY THINGS, BUT SHE HAS NOT YET REACHED THE POINT OF FIGHTING THE SUN...AND YET. IF IT HAS TEETH, THEN SURELY IT MUST EAT SOMETHING.]
