Beneath Dweomerheart (Surraruthru, Tryll, 87 days left)

[Anastasia]

Italics, not underline. That whoops aside, it would not be.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru decides to simply turn it off so they can move on.

[Anastasia]

The summoning circle goes dark, nothing more from it.

[Iron Dragoon]

"There, that should do it. We can keep looting and advancing now. I've shut down the summoning circle."

Surraruthru goes back to finish looting before they keep going!

[Yuthirin]

Calleigh has been busily stuffing bottles and bones into her bag this whole time.

[Anastasia]

"Good work," Hanna says, as Dana bitches. "We don't need to fight things here, and this lab equipment should be worth something."

"Oh yes, a fight avoided is a fight saved," Kascha agrees, "There's little point beating up some poor summoned monster if we don't have to."

"Oh, go fuck both of yourselves with a fucking rusty balor's sword, then go shit out balor babies. Where's the violence? Where's the battle? Where's the bleeding?" Dana's arms are crossed, "I've had more fun seeing Daddy try to keep me on my lessons."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well, we're only on the first floor, Dana. We'll get to things that I can't simply cancel out eventually. When we do, it'll be a far better fight than a few summoned lions or some such. Alternately, if you tell me your father's name, I might be able to have him join us with a Calling."

[Yuthirin]

"Next time you can fight the golem!" Calleigh consoles.

[Anastasia]

Are you all going back to the intersection or to the door on the far side of the lab?

[Yuthirin]

Let's check out that door!

[Iron Dragoon]

I agree.

[Anastasia]

As you approach the door, a voice sounds.

"Left behind but not right, looking behind and yet moving ahead. Whatever shall I do?"

The voice is a normal man's, nothing special about it at all.

[Yuthirin]

"If you don't open your door, you might get exploded or disintegrated!" Calleigh warns.

[Anastasia]

There's no reply to Calleigh's bravado.

Dana sighs, "Oh great, it's a fucking riddle now."

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru considers. "Stop dwelling on mistakes of the past."
