Ola checks the storage space to the left of Adi.

Seeing that the circles do things. Kar investigates the one to the right.

Adi grabs the gun and examines it closely.

Ola and Kar investigate the other glowing circles. They reveal their contents to be a sword in one and a shield in the other.

Adi picks up the gun and inspects it. It has a trigger and no place to insert ammunition. Huh.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

The silver Projection(?) slowly begins to speak, faltering at the new sound of her(?) voice.
"What... what are... what are we supposed to do with... these?"

Ola takes the shield and moves to the door, checking it for opening mechanism.

Adi tries to strike up a conversation with the others, but finding its (perhaps her, it thinks?) faltering voice ignored, Adi elects to try and help by raising the gun to cover Ola as it tries to open the door.

Kar takes the remaining item, the sword since Ola grabbed the shield. With all the Projections a little ways away, the farthest circle goes descends back into the floor.

Ola's hand bumps something on the latch and the door beeps and slides open.



It reveals a green Projection just reaching for the lock on the other side, as well as a much larger room than the first. Across the newly-revealed room, they can see another green Projection standing by another door. This door seems to be heavily damaged, and as you watch, the Projection casually tears a chunk of the solid metal locking mechanism off and goes back into the room.
A third door on the opposite side also opens as you are watching.

If they are hostile, defend allies with the shield. If not, attempt to move to the orange door.

Incorporate the sword into arm. Possibly in a manner that allows it to stab out rapidly with much force.

Sort of awkwardly follow Kar and Ola. Try not to look hostile. Wave at the greenies, maybe?

Before anyone can react, the green Projection does some sort of crazy acrobatic leap and somehow ends up standing on the ceiling. You edge forward a little to see where it went, and Adi tries to talk to it: "Erh-- hello there? Friend, or... or foe?" There's no immediate answer either way.

Something else quickly grabs your attention though: an orange projection sprints out of their door and runs towards you with a sword in hand. You're not sure what's going on there: either it's running from something in its own room, or it's charging at you, or perhaps at the green Projection. Another orange, this one with a gun, hops out of the room and onto some blocks in some sort of double-jump manoeuvre - it jumps again while in mid-air.



Ola bravely stands its ground, readying the shield to protect itself and the others from this possible threat. Kar melds its sword into its arm so that it could extend the arm rapidly and stab with the blade.

Take cover behind one of the doors. Need to identify hostilities or nonhostilities.
