Greet her Horrifyingly Politely, and examine her in Horrifyingly Accurate detail. Otherwise, remain silent and observe.
"Why, hello my dearest madam. It is such a pleasure to finally meet you.""Oh, finally a soul with some decent manners! Quite unlike yourself, dear brother.""So help me, Diwari. Cease your usual childishness at once, lest I personally throw you into Tartarus..."You pay attention to the two siblings as they bicker. On the surface, they seem to have a stereotypical relationship as a brother and sister, although you notice that the two are much more close than implied since they are able to insult each other freely.
[Roll=5+2=7]
You don't notice anything peculiar about "Diwari" besides her unusually pale skin and faintly glowing lavender eyes. She appears to be very fond of teasing and poking fun at others, and is very energetic and coy with dealing with her brother. While you don't sense any energy radiating off "Diwari" at the moment, you know that you should be careful not to offend her if she is to have the same amount of power as her brother.
Imprint secret directive:
If about to travel from one world to another, absorb all ambient energy.
Detect to see if the energy flowing throughout the cavern is similar to your own, then attempt to absorb it; your world must have magic in it, and the extra energy in your soul will enhance your potential magical powers.

You focus on the energy in the room, and find that there is a small amount of "pure" energy slowly drifting about in your surroundings. With the siblings still distracted with their intense bickering session, you gather it into yourself, letting it flow into your body, and successfully absorb a very small mote of energy.

0.5 Pure EnergyAfter a few more minutes, the siblings finally turn their attention onto you.
"Now, dear, I expect that my brother was not so forgetful to have neglected to inform you of what my duty is. Simply come here, and step onto this pedestal." "Diwari" gestures to a wide, clear-glass pedestal in the center of the room. Huh, how did you miss something as noticeable as that?
As you move yourself onto the pedestal, you feel some kind of "static" emanate from it. Could this a new type of energy? How exactly will this "gate" operate?
"Diwari" laughs as though she notices your discomfort.
"Don't worry, it will not hurt in the slightest. Oh, and just a reminder before you leave, you won't be able to remember anything from your time here until you die and become a soul again. Do feel free to visit later!"With a nod from her brother and a wave of her hand, you black out.

You hear the sound of shattering glass. Your body is being forcibly pulled apart, the mind-engulfing pain rendering you unable to think clearly.
You need to reach for something. Anything that can dull the sharp, piercing pain:
