Floor 1 "Wheel": 1-2

[Corwin]

"I think we should just try jumping across this platform as well," Euphemia muses, deep in thought. "But first, we can try and see if tossing something substantial would get some sort of response. I could use my armor for that."

[Anastasia]

"Trrrry iiiiit," The little flying creature hisses from behind Sacchin.

[Corwin]

Euphemia sets her crossbow aside for the time being, stripping off her chain link armor and remaining in the blood-stained dress. She then mounts it on a pole of her own, intent on setting it aside past the platform in question without coming in contact with it in any way.

[Anastasia]

To clarify, you're holding it on a pole and ideally putting it down past the crusher's obvious range?

[Corwin]

In my understanding, the platform is 5ft in length. I'll be approaching it with the armor dangling from the pole, so that the armor would be 10ft away from me, and pretty much try to set it past the platform while not stepping on it myself. May I not die in a particularly humiliating fashion!

[Anastasia]

Right.

Euphy comes close to the edge of the crusher! SHe extends her pole out as she does, armor dangling in the air. It touches the ground past the crusher without incident, not setting it off by that contact!

[Ebiris]

"Well, lets see if it's safe for a person then!" Flasheart exclaims before taking a run and heroically jumping across!

[Anastasia]

Flasheart jumps across! It's entirely too close - his head comes dangerously close to the spiked crusher, but he makes the jump safely!

[Corwin]

Euphemia follows!

[Anastasia]

Euphemia comes marginally less close to a head conking but clears the jump! At this point your steamy friend crosses as well, flying serenely past. "Nowwww yooouuuu," he says to Sacchin.

[Corwin]

Euphemia quickly and efficiently puts her armor back on at a safe distance while waiting for Sacchin to make the jump, crossbow in hand once she is done with her preparations.

[Carthrat]

Sacchin seems marginally distrustful of this approach, glancing into the mists after those creatures and even tossing another pebble across the danger zone.

Barring unusual events, however, she then makes the leap herself.

[Anastasia]

Sacchin hops across as well! A little ahead is yet another trial - two crushers one after another in a double feature of crushing agony. Just past them, in the ghostly mists, you can glimpse a stairway going down and an archway just past it. Both crushers are beneath solid bridge, more gore and broken bones in their shadow.

[Carthrat]

Idly, Sacchin tosses a pebble over the edge of the bridge and listens for how long it takes to hit the ground.

[Anastasia]

The pebble falls and falls and falls and falls and falls...nope, no sound. It vanishes out of sight into the mists.
