Turn 32: End of an EraMaka:Examine slab-door. Open if openable and "probably" not trapped.
(?)
Morning is coming. Maka sighs. Second watch was a very boring thing. Her colleagues are in various states of awakening. Most of them apparently had a good night, but Remy looks like he's in quite great pain, which is understandable, since he's apparently tied up in a quite uncomfortable way by a set of bikini armor.
Her vision slips to the stone slab again. It looks like a door. Granted, the trees look like coffee-laced fried chicken, but Maka is mentally strong enough to distinguish between reality and delusions. And, besides, continuing the exploration isn't a bad idea, right? Less work for the others, more loot for Maka. So she knocks on the slab door.
No reaction.
She whacks the door with the scepter.
No reaction, aside from a swollen thumb.
She tries to sparta kick the door in.
Again, the only thing that changed state was her foot, namely, from "fine" to "hurting".
There's gotta be a better way in. Following a sudden impulse, she walks over to the pedestal and pushes the "X" button...
A faint glyph resembling a tower glows up on the door again. Maka walks up to it. Hel tries to shout a warning, but her fingers already touched the glowing rock...
And the rest was darkness.
...
......
.........
Seven adventurers lie sleeping on top of a great tower, clothed, with most of their belongings nowhere to be found. Sun rays shine through the battlements, faint cries of seagulls can be heard...
They must Roll to Descend the Tower...

Sorry for the huge hiatus! Again. I'll try for a strict twice-a-week schedule. Shouldn't be too hard...
Why the setting change? Tabula rasa makes it easier to get back into the game. There's also the small fact that I think I was being a bit too nice as a GM ^^'
Your belongings, the old world, the overarching goal, all are not lost forever. In fact, in descending the tower, you might find things you recognize... and, all will clear up as you descend the tower. To the surface. And whatever it may hold.
