[RAVEN'S HEART GAME - SESSION TWO]

[selfpreservationist]

The first thing you hear is the sound of rain faintly hitting the exterior of the house. The soft pitter-patter is almost soothing, in a way, but it’s quickly followed up by rumbling thunder in the distance. You open your eyes, and for a second all you see is a flash of light--at first it seems like it’s lightning, but then you see something. A vision of a man dressed in rags, hunched over, waves of demonic power rolling over him. He howls, and something terrible starts to grow out of him: the bloody roots of a massive tree. An immense wave of panic hits you, and you can’t move, you can’t speak, you can’t breathe--

And then it’s over. It’s over. You’re fine.

The sound of rain returns. (This time it’s definitely soothing, compared to what you just saw.) You’re standing in the foyer of a mansion, a wide open living room in front of you. The door behind you is faintly ajar, leading outside.

Sorry. It's not like I don't want to, but. It's kinda complicated.

Anyway, mind if I look around in here a bit more?

"I don't mind."

He lounges back and stretches, like a cat.

[of course he's just going to be there

shirtless

like a JERK

which is to say doodle is definitely stealing some glances while he goes to examine the chest]

Re: DOOR THREE - THE BEDROOM

[idolpro]

The epigraph carved on top of the chest reads:

“I love you as certain dark things are to be loved
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.”

The wooden chest appears to be locked, somehow. There is no keyhole anywhere to be found, but there is an indentation where something could be placed. It’s shaped vaguely like an oval, about the size of a child’s fist.

[looking back to raven more directly]

...Can you tell me what goes here?

Re: DOOR THREE - THE BEDROOM

[idolpro]

"Good question." He leans over the edge of the bed to look at the chest. "I'd say... something like a gem, perhaps. A large one."

Re: DOOR THREE - THE BEDROOM

[avestan]

Huh. Guess I'll have to go looking for that, then.

Re: DOOR THREE - THE BEDROOM

[idolpro]

"Good luck," says Raven, winking at you.
