140 Location: 4B Bullets continued to scatter like rain, the dissonant song of a far off Magia doing little to affect Nai. She could feel it in her organs, but without pain as an impediment, nothing distracted her from the state of the battlefield. Machines spilled out like ants out of a hive...

140 Location: 3C > 4B A searing light soared overhead, followed by an unending barrage of bullets, as if spewed out from fully automatic machine guns. No. On reflection, Nai could see that it really was just machine guns. With no eye for aesthetics, the DEAD.naught had seemingly decided that...

140 Location: 3C She had heard that four years ago, the only thing that could wield a gun was a skeleton. It had been a senseless statement before, a strangely artificial rule to impose upon this world when the rest of it was a reasonably seamless reconstruction of a world. But now, seeing...

Nai had no complaints or concerns, and thus, she had no need to respond either. A curt nod exchanged between the taciturn duo was all that was needed before they delved into the darkness once more, following the Magia's instructions. Circumventing the animate boulders by taking a detour around...

120 Location: Southern Gallery Total Movement: 2 With @Ludmilla Orphys's timely arrival, all active threats were neutralized, and Nai caught the emaciated woman before she could fall. Her flesh was clammy beneath the beastwoman's hands, but what was more troubling was how she spoke about being...

fas fa-message-dots Nai Come then, @Ludmilla Orphys. There's two books here. I'll take one, you take the other.

120 Location: Southern Gallery Total Movement: 2 Further up, the library faded away, wildlife entwinning the carcasses of scorched barricades, until even that faded away in the presence of a barrier sealing the staircase off from the rest of this library. It would warrant study. It would...

The western quadrant? Nai glanced over there as well. The darkness made everything indistinct, but movement was still easy enough to pick up, and she concurred with Alice. Perhaps the Stone Dwarves have already exhausted whatever materials they were mining, or perhaps they were reallocated to...

fas fa-message-dots Nai There's a woman in the Southern Gallery, confined by a book. Possibly an expedition member. Four monsters are present. Two cowled shelvers, and two animate books, one of which is held by the woman. I have secured the western route up to this location, and will be...

120 Location: Southern Gallery +37 Buff [1/3] Total Movement: 2 + 5 Artifice all around, but she was no longer surprised by it. A ceiling of glass that mimicked, or perhaps simply was a monitor, while flora craft undoubtedly of paper and ink ran rampant over the ground. Shelves, shelves lined...

120 Location: Web-Choked Corridors +37 Buff [1/3] Total Movement: 2 + 5 Spiderthreads laced densely, yet such obstructions were merely a by-product of the egg-laying of whatever foreign system operated this life-mimicking library. So long as she was careful, Nai could find paths through this...

fas fa-message-dots Nai If someone is available in the lobby, could they please cut open the pomegranate tree and report what's inside it?

120 Location: Web-Choked Corridors +37 Buff [2/3] Total Movement: 2 Vulnerable | Protected "Like a book," Nai concluded. A library that replicated reality utilizing paper and ink. An encyclopedia, except of the most clumsy, meaningless kind. She let out a breath, then took a few steps to cast...

120 Location: Cobwebbed Crossroads +37 Buff [2/3] Total Movement: 2 Vulnerable If she had been alone, Nai would have moved on. It was enough to learn of this place, after all, to gather information on her own, while using the comms to keep the rest of the party informed as she teased out more...

No ghosts westward. Just spiders. Plenty of 'em.

120 Location: West Total Movement: 2 + 2 (Haste) "And that's why the Explorers go first." Nai sipped on her tea tentatively as she listened to the ravings and complaints of the MIT 'professionals' around her. Their downfall, it appeared, was in making an assumption about the perceived threat...

Thank you. Preparation is meditative for me, however. My mind has been free of thought. Nai chews on the jerky thoughtfully, or perhaps thoughtlessly. Though yours must not? What concerns you, if I may ask? @Cynna

At a distance, it could still be beautiful. But up-close? The hike through gradually sloping switchbacks was tedious, while the humid mist that tumbled out from the grand gateway held a fetid stench. The scenery behind her, once novel, had grown old, while the wind that flowed like streams down...

They left at night, stifling the bonfire after downing the last of their cooked meals. Shuffling through the wasteland in the dark, the two passed by other nighttime spelunkers as the moon rose over the horizon, the alabaster glow only strong enough to etch the unnatural spires of the Godrose...

120 +52 Buff [0/3] Special Vulnerable She had hoped that this wasn't a card she'd have to play immediately, but going by the flow of battle, perhaps it was better to pull the trigger now rather than regret later. Beams of light scored Nai's suit in the split second before she sunk into her...
