[ If you had paid visit before, you might notice that where you start seems fairly familiar. But since most of you haven't… the first thing you'll notice is red. Dark red all around you. The sky, the ground—everything is red. It's impossible to make out anything among the color. But if you attempt to stare at any particular space for too long, you'll discover it pulses, flows.

And then there is a laugh that you are probably very acquainted with by now, only this time it’s LOUDER, wracking inside your skull. ]

FOOLISH WORMS! THIS IS MY DOMAIN NOW. YOU SHALL ALL PERISH. TORN ASUNDER. NOTHING LEFT.

[ Well then. ]

Also, I futzed up by not putting up a mingle header. If you show up late and want to talk to Alpha in addition to/instead of the second NPC, let me know. I doubt many people really want to talk to Alpha though... ))

[ They don't seem to be. ]

[Well, if they're fine, i'll head inside.]

From:

stigmateyes

[ Once inside, you find yourself instantly warmed up. There are tasty smells coming from the kitchen. Amethyst’s book shelf rests against a wall in the main room, along with a table with a silver tree-like object in its center. There is a door leading to the bedroom and another one leading back outside. Lafra’s perch also rests to the side of the main room, but the songbird appears nowhere in sight. ]

[Hmmmm, let's look at these trees.]

From:

stigmateyes

[ It is a silver tree with crystal feathers hanging all over it. Except most of the crystals seem faded and the tree looks dull instead of shining silver. ]

From:

shednotearsformagic

[Huh. Touching it for feelings?]

From:

stigmateyes

[ If you're touching the tree itself, you get an overwhelming feeling of FAILURE. ]

From:

shednotearsformagic

[WELP.]

[What about the feathers?]

From:

stigmateyes

[ They have the names of all the missing Amethysts. Which are you touching? ]

From:

shednotearsformagic

[Oh, let's say...Solstice.]

From:

stigmateyes

[ Solstice's is also the only feather that doesn't start out lackluster. You get feelings that are guarded but impressed and wanting to reach out. ]

From:

shednotearsformagic

[Night. '^']

[Let's try...the most lackluster.]

From:

stigmateyes

[ All the rest are lackluster. You can't get a read on any. ]

From:

shednotearsformagic

[Hmmm. Let's do random touching then! I dunno, one near the bottom?]

From:

stigmateyes

[ Still the same feeling... ]

From:

shednotearsformagic

[Hmmm.]

[Okay, let's check out the books.]

From:

stigmateyes

[ The bookshelf appears to be in some odd shape. A few of the books are where they should be on their shelf. A couple are on a shelf slightly higher up. One is all the way on the top surface. Some appear to have been dropped on the floor nearby the shelf. ]

[Let's pick up these dropped books and see what they're about.]

From:

stigmateyes

[ Their covers say 'Corvus' and '???'

Corvus' feels curious and protective when you flip through. The blank-cover book feels HORRIFIED as you flip through. They both look scuffed from their fall. ]
