Floyd | The gentle tapping sounds again.
|
Floyd |
|
Floyd | A sense of raw alertness rushes through your nerves, setting them all
|
Floyd | on edge.

Jacqueline says, "Seventh place in the comp that year - must have been a good crop of games."
|
Brad says, "2000, right? It was a good year."
|
olethros says, "that's great, let's go south"
|
Jacqueline asks, "There aren't drugs in the ring, are there? Search ring, maybe?"
|
maga says (to Floyd), "south"

|
Floyd | Portico
|
Floyd | The great iron gate to the south, black as time, stands here to seal
|
Floyd | the tower's entrance. A dark corridor, worn by countless centuries of
|
Floyd | forgotten feet, leads back north into the cryptic maze which you -- and
|
Floyd | in those brief, happy, vanished days, Lenore -- once called a home.
|
Floyd |
|
Floyd | There is a sudden scratching and scrabbling beyond the iron gate, as of
|
Floyd | some creature seeking admittance. Then the sound is gone as quickly as
|
Floyd | it came.
|

|
Floyd | The coca rush fades, but the sense of alertness remains.

olethros says (to floyd), "x ceiling"

Floyd | You see nothing special about the ceiling.

olethros says, "indeed, poe-esque. I remember having completed this."
|
Gunther says (to olethros), "maga's the speaker"
|
olethros says, "ok"
|
Jacqueline says (to olethros), "We were all giving commands at first, but it turns out this is a timed game and we died."
|
maga says, "only since there's time-limit death"
|
Jacqueline says, "So now we've appointed someone."
|
olethros says, "sorry missed the first few minutes"
|
Jacqueline says, "No worries!"
|
Jacqueline asks, "Open the gate?"
|
olethros says, "ok, open gate"
|
(from Taleslinger) maga says (to floyd), "wait till i die"
|
maga says (to Floyd), "open gate"
|
Floyd | You unbolt the great iron gate and swing it slowly open, revealing the
|
Floyd | night outside.

olethros says, "this must be the raven"
|
maga says, "hunh"
|
Jacqueline asks, "Hm. Should we go through the gate?"
|
Brad says, "Guess it wasn't tappingo on the gate."
|
olethros says, "the window, man"
|
olethros says, "pallas, window, etc"
|
Taleslinger says (to olethros), "Nope."
|
Jacqueline says (to olethros), "Oddly enough, we opened the window and it wasn't there."
|
olethros says, "but it;s tradition!"
|
Jacqueline says, "Nor did it come in and perch, and sit, and nothing more."
|
Taleslinger says, "I cried already. It's a loose adaption. Like a Marvel movie."
|
Jacqueline says, "As in the poem... this is based rather loosely on the poem at best, it would seem."
|
maga asks, "so - the window, or through the door?"
|
Jacqueline says (to T), "ha"
|
olethros says, "let's get out and some fresh air"
|
Brad says, "door"
|
Jacqueline says, "Yeah, let's exit the gate."

maga says (to Floyd), "s"

Floyd | Stairs in the Cliff
|
Floyd | Here at the tower's brink, a sheer staircase carved into the living
|
Floyd | rock falls down the cliff into blackness. Behind you, to the north,
|
Floyd | stands the great iron gate. The tower rises above you, shapeless and
|
Floyd | gaunt; the night is bleak, windy, with all moon and stars fled, leaving
|
Floyd | only the unfathomable emptiness of the distant plain, invisible far
|
Floyd | below.
|
Floyd |
|
Floyd | A small bright object glitters halfway down the cliff, well out of
|
Floyd | reach.
|
Floyd |
|
Floyd | Out of the silence comes a quiet sense of motion, as if some creature
|
Floyd | were circling further around the tower, searching for a more subtle
|
Floyd | approach. The lamp gutters erratically for a moment. The sound
|
Floyd | retreats; perhaps it was simply your fevered imagination.

Taleslinger asks, "down?"
|
Brad says, "It needs subtlety, heh."
|
olethros asks, "is there a tower?"
|
Jacqueline says, "Yeah, I'm for moving toward the bright object."
|
olethros says, "let's climbit"
|
Jacqueline says (to olethros), "In this game there is. heh"
|
maga says (to Floyd), "down"
|
Floyd | Even with a lamp, you would not chance these stairs in the darkness.
|
Floyd | The merest slip would send you plummeting.

|
Taleslinger asks, "Can I gag a channel?"
|
Jacqueline asks, "But we're going to die anyway, so who cares, Floyd?"
|
inky says, "I guess you need the right drug"
|
inky says, "try @mute #channel"
|
Jacqueline says (to T), "You can @mute Cha - right"
