After packing up camp and heading up, they reach their destination only an hour north

I'm glad to hear we have some lead...

[encryptedlock]

Tell me I'm not the only one who recognizes the size and shape of the first hole.

[payback]

What d'you think it is?

[encryptedlock]

What's small, rectangular, and the only piece of magic that works out here?

[payback]

[A pause, and then her mouth opens a little.]

... I have my journal. We could try just putting one in and seeing if anything happened.

[encryptedlock]

Might not do anything without the other two, but I think I've played enough video games to know that if there's an oddly-shaped hole, you're going to find something to put in it.

[payback]

It might do something. Like give us a clue to what all of them together will do.

[encryptedlock]

Yeah - maybe open Door One of Three or something. Worth a shot. I mean, worst case it does nothing, right?

[variare]

Well, the journals are magic. I mean, they work even out here. So it's not crazy to make that assumption.

Who wants to volunteer theirs?

[variare]

Eh, forget it. I'm the one who got us into this, I'll just use mine.

[ Carefully, as careful as one can be in this position anyway, he'll tug his journal free and reach out to try to set it in the first opening. ]

[rappelle]

[ jet's standing to to side, watching the proceedings. ]

[variare]

[ Sadly there is little to watch, because...nothing happens! After a minute he shrugs and pulls his journal out. ]

Maybe it needs to be a specific journal, like the person who built this place. Or not a journal at all. Or maybe they all need to be activated at the same time.

I think we just need to continue on. There's nothing here for us right now.

[payback]

You wanna start rounding people up to move?

[variare]

Let's give them a few minutes. Some people are really feeling the effects of this place.

We'll move out in five. Try to dissuade people from taking a snack break. We don't know how long we'll be down here, so we need to ration our supplies.

[payback]

It feels kinda humid in here at least. Maybe we'll find something drinkable.

[variare]

If we do, we need to test it first. This was some sort of damn trap, after all. So nice of Damsel to let us know about this area, if that was her.
