In Building Six...Luke, willing to follow his dreams, attempts to dramatically walk out of the building and over to the pedestal!
He realizes he doesn't have any legs as soon as he rolls out of the bed and hits the ground. He settles for a non-dramatic bounce instead.
"Hey, voice, want to go see what the pyramid does?"Can't leave the house. You can go ahead, though. I'll watch from here.Luke slowly bounces out of the house and advances toward the pyramid. As he does this, he is assailed by all the other voices screaming into his head!
TOUCH THE PYRAMIDBUILDING THREE BUILDING THREE BUILDING THREE<!!!$$$%%%>Why, Luke thinks that he will, in fact, touch the pyramid! When he reaches the pedestal, he makes a mighty bounce and touches the pyramid with his head! At that moment, most of the voices yell incoherently in unison!
[Will roll: 2]
He is horrified to see the pink pyramid begin to expand rapidly, engulfing his head immediately! His body is similarly engulfed momentarily! He experiences a twisting, spinning sensation combined with a vague impression of flattening and reshaping of his bodily surfaces! And the pink! Oh gods, the pink! Pink, pink everywhere!
After being trapped in what feels like a miasma of pink for an eternity, Luke suddenly finds himself on the ground next to the pedestal, the pink pyramid still resting on it securely. Something has changed, though. Something important.
Luke eventually becomes aware of what it is: he is now a
Pink Tetrahedron!
In Bernie's inn...Mark gets out of the basement only to find good ol'
Yorinnsud quite incapacitated! Most unfortunate, that. Better fix her.
[Mark medicine roll: 3]
Well, she isn't actually broken in any way. In fact, her limbs are in remarkably good condition, all things considered. It is just that they seem to have gotten it into them to just seize up and wrap around her in a most peculiar manner. Mark surmises that magic is probably involved.
Elsewhere in Emlocke...Tom takes careful inventory of the houses destroyed by the fire!
Hm, it appears that only ten to fifteen fires like that, and the town will be entirely leveled. Although there might be complications with that.
After thinking on this for a while, Tom realizes that he still needs explosives! He also remembers that he left this town exactly due to lack of such things in ready availability.
[Intelligence roll: ?]
He can't think of a good place he might have missed the first time around, either.
