Your… path has been chosen.

You step forward, curious as to who could be stuck in this place with you.
As you approach steps can be heard louder and louder, but in the dark it’s hard to see.
You call out, figuring no harm in finding out at this point.
The steps stop.
You remain silent, when suddenly you hear the steps running off away from you.
They sound more distant by the second, but seem to go on forever until you can’t hear them anymore.


Which way would you like to go?

Your… path has been chosen.

You go right. You swear the laughter increases in volume.
It sounds like you’re being mocked. But the direction doesn’t help locate it any better.
You can hear what sound like steps ahead, frantically go from one side to the other.
Behind you, you feel as if there was a draft.
Or perhaps it is someone breathing down your neck.

Your… path has been chosen.

You walk ahead.
Your steps feeling icky, as if you stepped on something wet, yet dense.
Like tar maybe. Or you’d prefer thinking that way.
Unfortunately, the ambience does not provide any clues and everything else remains the same.
You can almost hear faint laughter echo through the room.

Your… path has been chosen.

You turn left and walk.
You walk some more.
Although you’ve not found any walls, you can almost feel them closing in on you.
Scratching noises all over. Little movements at your feet you can hear, but you feel nothing.
As dark as it is, you feel watched.

It’s dark and it reeks. You cannot make out details, but you can hear noises scuttering around hallways, echoing all around you. There is no time to waste, however. Help Arika and Berinhard get out of this maze, if there is even an exit at all.

Berinhard and Arika seem content in their induced slumber. They smile as if having a good dream.

THE THIRD POST HAS BEEN UPDATED WITH THIS ACT'S CONCLUSION.
Posted in Act 9: Viperous Vengeance Posted 5 years ago

Your path has been chosen

You see a strange opening ahead as if the path opens up to a new area. Almost like the nightmarish maze is at an end. But in your observations, you spot something else. Two things, actually.

One is Vontell who appears as you cross the threshold of the exit in a frenzy, Arika being right behind you. He offers you a reassuring smile before stepping forward to intercept.

The other sight of interest is a runic symbol drawn on the ground where you passed by. It blends almost perfectly and you wouldn't even know it was there had Von not stood near it.

A cacophony of terrifying sounds reminiscent of the creature you once knew as Arika cuts through the air as she charges forward, snakes of her hair hissing and snapping in hunger. You worry for Von who's standing in her way, but he seems to have a plan.

Arika is bearing down on him in no time with a hand lashing out at his face, but her fingers fall just short. "I apologize for this, but hopefully the pain is minimal," he whispered before snapping the fingers of his tainted hand. The runes burst as bindings of energy spread upwards and tighten around her causing her titanic form to collapse in a heap.

Von's hand is trembling, but he seems to pocket it quickly and glances back at you. "You are safe now. I apologize the spell took so long to prepare! Let us look for the others and have the good doctor treat this poor young woman."


CONGRATULATIONS! YOU'VE MADE IT THROUGH THE MAZE. DARK POSES FOR THE SNAKE CHARMER EI WILL NOW BE UNLOCKED.

Your path has been chosen

You run forward. What seemed like a dead end might have a path open after all.
To each your side walls though, and looking back you see Arika recover her wits and look around for you.
As you are in the middle of the hallway, she quickly is aware of your position and is lunging towards you.
You have no other choice, you move forward once again, realizing that there is indeed a path to your left.

Once there, you are met by two choices.
You either go left or you go right.

Your path has been chosen

You go left, into the dark room. It’s so dark you can’t make out your surroundings.
The air seems to go stale, and you hear something drag across the floor. This is followed by a hiss.
Suddenly, you receive a harsh blow, it knocks you back outside the room from which Arika emerges.
Hissing menacingly as she towers above you, she gets ready to strike you once more. You quickly get up and run towards the more illuminated side of the hallway.
From here you can subtly make out very familiar voices talking on the other side of the wall, but you have no time to dwell on this.
Left seems like a dead end, but it appears to be covered in walls, you might be able to hide in here. Of you can run forward, maybe you can escape Arika’s wrath.

Your path has been chosen

You decide to head left.
There are only walls to your right, and you can see the end of the hallway moving forward.
But it still is a small distance away. From this spot you can’t make out if it’s a dead end or not.
You can feel a presence to your left.
You look in, but the room is very dark and you can’t make out who’s in there.

Your path has been chosen

You go right. Although the fog is still quite strong, you are able to see a little better.
In front of you a wall, and the only path besides going back available is to your left.
It’s a long hallway and it seems like it slightly becomes more illuminated as it goes.

Your path has been chosen

The room behind you growing noisy, as if more than one thing were eating.
You start getting an uneasy feeling of being watched.
You decide to move on forward and leave that area.
Now you find yourself against a wall, a path to your right.

Your path has been chosen

You go back.
Weirdly enough, you perceive the smell of food and hear someone eating once again behind you.
Back in this room from another perspective, there’s a wall to your left and a way forward.
A path to your right from where you came from before, still no more scratching sounds.
