Test 4.

KNOWLEDGE

Compared to the frigid chamber you've just left, the cavern you enter now is warm.

It isn't difficult to see why; while there's still a fair amount of space in here, it's far smaller, and there's a source of heat and light in here - a small fire going near a corner of the room, tucked away behind the wall and difficult to see as you enter, but fairly obvious once you're inside, the light from the flames bouncing off the corner of the chamber and making it decidely easier to see.

There thankfully aren't any more of Froslass' "sculptures" in here; there is, however, a person. Candice is in the corner near the fire, pressed back against the wall and watching you as you enter; it's likely obvious from the start that there's something wrong with her, though it's difficult to say what just from looking at her. Her eyes aren't fixed in the same sort of dull, blank stare that the people affected by Team Galactic tend to display, but at the same time, they look viscerally wrong - it's alert but it's empty and almost completely unfocused, as though she's taking in information and she's processing it, but she's not actually seeing any of it.

It's unsettling, but she's still watching you, and she's holding something close to her chest as she does so; she's got the thick, blue sweater untied from around her waist, and she's holding it bundled in her arms like she's trying to protect it.

Her eyes don't come into focus, even as she addresses you.

"I told you that you aren't welcome here.
You need to leave. Now."


Her gaze darts as she speaks, like she's trying to take in as much as she can, even if she doesn't seem to be registering any of it properly; her expression is hard. Cold.

What happens now is up to you.

[How the bloody hell they can fix Candice, for one thing-]

...do you know anything about the god Cyrus is controlling?

[Oh, fucking hell.]
greydients: (★ ???)

[personal profile] greydients 2018-07-28 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[YEAH REY IS TRYING REALLY HARD NOT TO JUST LOSE HER SHIT-wait what]

At...at least three?!

[....okay she's. starting to understand why you were kind of against them fighting Cyrus, um]

You're sure?
semistableman: (❆ i'm learning how to live)

[personal profile] semistableman 2018-07-28 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Holy hell.

[Yeah he's got nothing.]
takestheblame: 7 (7)

[personal profile] takestheblame 2018-07-28 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)
...okay, even meeting him is going to be difficult.

[Suddenly stopping Cyrus seems much harder]

2/2

[personal profile] greydients 2018-07-28 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)
...I'm starting to understand why you were discouraging us from fighting him.

[TO...PUT IT MILDLY...]

So he's...he's controlling the god of creation, and the two gods that created the universe. Is that right?

[......

we may need to increase that training regime guys]

[See this is precisely why Bucky didn't want to rush into things, because holy shit the odds looked bleak before.]
greydients: (★ suspicious)

[personal profile] greydients 2018-07-28 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[OKAY TO BE FAIR SHE DIDN'T REALISE THERE WAS MORE THAN ONE GOD]
semistableman: (❆ think of home)

[personal profile] semistableman 2018-07-28 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[There are kids present, so don't mind Bucky letting out a litany of obscenities in Russian.

...Hopefully the teenagers don't speak Russian.]


Do you know how he was able to do this? I can't imagine God would exactly willingly go along with this.
semistableman: (❅ yesterday all you had)

[personal profile] semistableman 2018-07-28 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah. That sounds about right.
greydients: (★ ???)

[personal profile] greydients 2018-07-28 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[HOW MANY GODS DOES ONE MAN NEED-]

How...how are we supposed to...how? How did he even manage to control one of them, let alone four, let alone the one who created the others?!

[This is just...this information, on top of the fact that Maylene's friend seems to be damaged beyond repair...]

What kind of a man is he?!
greydients: (★ fear)

[personal profile] greydients 2018-07-28 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
He was strong enough to take control of the gods themselves.

[jake we may need to update our previous impressions of this man]

...I'm feeling like I need to apologise again.

...Well, now we know why he doesn't think of us as a threat.

[He could kill them all with a snap of his fingers.]
greydients: (Default)

[personal profile] greydients 2018-07-28 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, that...]

...no wonder Cynthia told us not to go after him.

[....yeah, that.]
enjoymyatelier: things are good (the sun is shining)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2018-07-28 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, good. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I'm really looking forward to this.

[snrk]

Well, he beat them, and he was just some random human with a bunch of human followers and Pokemon at one point.
niceoppai: Making a teasing comment. (look at that underwear)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-28 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Beat 'em or tricked 'em. I mean, after all, everyone we've faced could wipe the floor with us so far, and we're still around.
eudaimonikos: (no exit)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-07-28 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Point being, the fact that he has all of their power doesn't mean that he's unstoppable.
enjoymyatelier: kayneth looking smug as hell in a mocking way (well who's this douchebag?)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2018-07-28 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly! There's something about that making me think we've got a chance of not dying.
