I am totally not on an Umineko kick. Totally.
WELCOME TO ROKKENJIMA!
Lovely mansion, isn't it? Well, good news, everyone! YOU'RE ALL STUCK IN HERE FOR THREE DAYS UNTIL THE STORM PASSES OVER.
By the way, this place? It's completely indestructible. And yes, it is strong enough to even withstand a god's attacks.
So, to while away the time, everyone should try to solve this riddle that's in the main room:
My beloved hometown, the sweetfish river running through it.
You who seek the Golden Land, follow its path downstream and seek the key.
If you follow the river downstream, you will find a village.
In the village, look for the shore the two will tell you of.
There sleeps the key to the Golden Land.
He who lays hand upon the key shall travel under the rules below.
At the first twilight, you shall lift up as sacrifice the six chosen by the key.
At the second twilight, the surviving shall tear apart the two who are close.
At the third twilight, the surviving shall praise my honorable name on high.
At the fourth twilight, gouge the head and kill.
At the fifth twilight, gouge the chest and kill.
At the sixth twilight, gouge the stomach and kill.
At the seventh twilight, gouge the knee and kill.
At the eighth twilight, gouge the leg and kill.
At the ninth twilight, the Witch shall be revived and none shall be left alive.
At the tenth twilight, the journey shall end and you should reach the village of gold.
The Witch will praise the wise, and should bestow four treasures.
One shall be, all the gold from the Golden Land.
One shall be, the resurrection of the souls of all the dead.
One shall be, even the resurrection of the lost love.
One shall be, to put the Witch to sleep for all time.
Of course, what good will that do you? I mean, it's just a silly riddle. Surely there couldn't be anything going on in here except to maybe figure out the solution for about a day or two, right? Also, this epitaph happens to be just under a portrait of...Medusa in this dress, sitting elegantly, and seems to be looking over each and every one of you here. It's almost as if she were mocking you guys for even being here. But, no. This is just a picture, right? Really, what could ever happen if you guys do try to solve it?
...well, you'll find out soon enough.
((OOC: Threadjacking is totally encouraged, and there might be some god-modding, but only for deaths for the people that will be chosen to not survive to the next day. Plus, this is all just for fun, so don't take it seriously if your muse doesn't make it, please!
Also, this will really last for three days. Good luck~! lD))
