Labalyn's memorial

[Anastasia]

The door won't budge in the slightest.

[Nephrite]

"It's like I thought." Moore says aloud. "Remember that story I told you a little bit ago?"

He gently knocks on the rusted door.

"The first step was that the woman needed to let the young man in, in order to take that first step to friendship. Do you think you can do that?" He asks.

[Anastasia]

The door won't budge in the slightest...

..until against all odds, it creaks open.

Floating in the air s the divine seed. A field of blue light surrounds it, semi transparent and enough to see the seed within it. Besides it, past the blue light, a sheet of paper lazily floats in the air.

[Nephrite]

Moore will go to read the paper first. It doesn't matter what his goal was, it's changed a lot from him coming in here.

[Anastasia]

It reads thus:

The test has been to be true to your beliefs, no matter what they are.

Finish the test.

[Nephrite]

"What happens to this place when I do that?" He calls out, looking to the note to see if it changes. "Is everyone released?"

[Anastasia]

There is no reply.

[Nephrite]

He reaches out to take the seed.

"I free you from your prison." He says. "I hope we can meet again."

[Anastasia]

Before your hands, the blue light recedes, fades. You grasp the divine seed - and stand just outside of the prison.

Swiftly, before you can take any action, the gates of the prison open. Xandra leads the way, followed by Jetina, Kaja, Cresiel and finally Sylvie.

"Wha-?" Kaja looks around suddenly.

"The Guardian," Sylvie explains. "Did it talk to you?"

"Yes," Xandra days, even as Kaja scowls and shakes his head. "It told me not to interfere, and barred me from speaking the Song of the Outer Spheres within."

"I was elsewhere for a few moments after our battle," Cresiel comes forward, "But our success is at hand."

"It was the same for me," Sylvie says, "It told me not to interfere further."

"Why, 21?" Xandra looks over to Sylvie, who confirms it with a curt nod.

Congratulations on clearing what was a non standard dungeon in a lot of ways and that could have gone a lot of ways.

My only regret is that you didn't fight in a recess. Oh well.

[Nephrite]

"A moment, stay here." Moore says.

He's going to try and open a Gate real quick.

[Anastasia]

To where?

[Nephrite]

That would help wouldn't it... To Hope's Landing.

[Anastasia]

A gate opens, just as desired.

[Nephrite]

Moore immediately hands the seed to his Avatar and then shuts the portal afterwards!

[Anastasia]

You reach through the portal - and tumble. You tumble and tumble and tumble and tumble.

It's dark.

You're somewhere dark and forgotten. It's hard to breathe - or would be if you had to. There is pressure around your neck.
