Stay up? You all are afraid of nightmares? (bunch of chickens ) I say let's go back straight to sleep.
After such a dream I doubt I would fall back to sleep so let us drink some water, hope it is not poisoned, and then look forward to sunrise if it ever comes.
UPDATE 5
Water and up a little longer:
QUOTE (49) |
You pour yourself some water as you stand by the window, contemplating the situation. Outside, through the gloom, you can make out an open field, with a line of trees in the distance. There is also some sort of building a little ways off. It is much smaller than the house. Perhaps a guesthouse? You down the last of the water and replace the glass on the nightstand. There is a sudden whispering, windy sort of sound coming from your left. You turn towards it and freeze. Go to 371. |
QUOTE (371) |
A shimmering blue light is slowly brightening the center of the room. Within the light, the features of a middle-aged woman are slowly taking shape. She is dressed in a white robe and has light hair and ghostly blue eyes with no pupils. As the light fades, the apparition comes into focus. You never believed in ghosts – until now. The situation is very unnerving. Add 2 Fear points. She examines you solemnly for a few moments, as if sizing you up. “Stranger,” she begins, in a voice that sounds like the rustle of leaves, “you are in a cursed, unholy, evil place. Pravemi, your host, has welcomed you into his home, but little do you know of the evil in his heart. This house consumes all of those unfortunate enough to find themselves within these walls. We are powerless to destroy it, but one such as yourself, with what little aid we may provide, might succeed. Will you help?” Will you, out of the goodness of your heart, agree to help (11) or are you happy enough to escape the house with your life (236)? |
