[Fluffe9911]

After pauses for a couple of seconds as his brain tries to process what just happened before remembering he is being chased by a yandere and continues running "Must.... get... to..." Alfred is breathing heavily his body exhausted and cramping up "The elevator.... god im tired..." I gotta get to that elevator before the pink creature catches up and kills me... or worse! Alfred shall not die here!

[Magmacube_tr]

TricMagic: Cleanse the remnants of the fight, then enter the elevator.
Dice: N/A

Drukalfar: Enter elevator.
Dice: N/A

Alfred: Go to the elevator before the girl gets him.
Dice: 10


Tric looks around the room. Many of his projectiles now lay on the floor, impaling the floor. He decides that he should clean his mess, he is better than that. It is trivially easy. All he has to do is to press a button on his Skylink, and all is well. He calls Drukalfar to enter the elevator with him.

Alfred meanwhile, is utterly exhausted. He can't run for much longer, he falls and then drags himself on the floor, watching in horror as his teammates leave him behind with the pink feminine bug thing. She approaches him, making sounds similar to mocking giggling. Before he can react, the girl grabs his leg. He looks at the lego girl in terror, but what he anticipates never comes. She instead takes a few moments to squeeze his flesh underneath the cloth in fascination, then she says something to him and laughs again. ''⍙⍜⍙ ⍙⊑⟒⋏ ⏁⊑⟒⊬ ⌇⏃⟟⎅ ⊑⎍⋔⏃⋏⌇ ⍙⟒⍀⟒ ⏃⌰⌰ ⌇⍜⎎⏁, ⟟ ⍙⏃⌇⋏⏁ ⟒⌖⌿⟒☊⏁⟟⋏☌ ⏁⊑⟟⌇.''

A hologram screen appears infront her. She puts the clothing in her hand into it, and it turns into an icon. Then she drags that icon on Alfred. In an instant, the bloodied clothes are all gone, and he is left with his boxers. Fortunately for him, a new clothing appears in its place before he can contemplate on it. It is like one of those ancient greek dresses that are hung on one shoulder, ones that he saw on a movie once. It is light gray, and weirdly comfortable. She puts his old clothing into the screen, which dissapears just after.

''⍜☍ ⊬⍜⎍ ☊⏃⋏ ☌⍜. ⊬⍜⎍⍀ ⎎⍀⟟⟒⋏⎅⌇ ⏃⍀⟒ ⍙⏃⟟⏁⟟⋏☌ ⎎⍜⍀ ⊬⍜⎍.'' She lifts Alfred up with ease, then carries him to the elevator. As the doors close, she waves after, saying ''⍙⟒ ⍙⟟⌰⌰ ⋔⟒⟒⏁ ⏃☌⏃⟟⋏!.''


Elevator does its thing, going upwards, one would suppose. It deems many floors unavailable, then loudly announces that decision. Tric is unfazed. Drukalfar is uncaring. Alfred, meanwhile is just frozen.

They stop at 21th floor. The doors open, and saltwater immidiately surges in, filling the entirety of the elevator in seconds. Alfred screams in mortal fear as his lungs are filled with the cold water. Drukalfar holds his breath. Tric first looks fearful, then he relaxes in a bout of realization. ''This water is an illusion. It is air, but just made look and behave like water. You can breathe here.'' Drukalfar hesitates for a second, before taking a deep breath, surprised that it is, in fact, breathable.

Alfred is still holding his breath in vain, too lost in panic to listen to the forumites wisdom. He eventually loses his battle, and starts breathing anyways. He is in a curled up position, he breathes  but does not registers it. He thinks he is dying.


What is seen is a completely flat ocean floor made of silt, illuminated dimly, in creepy navy tone. Some small fish and crustaceans pass by, and other than the oceans humming, it is silent.


The line of sight is limited. The exit is not around.

What Do You Do?

[BlackPaladin99]

Drukalfar summons shadow beasts to find the exit

[Fluffe9911]

"Yo-you guys go on ahead... I uh I need a moment to process som-some things." Stay curled up and take some time to calm down, regain my energy and regret the life decisions that got me into this situation in the first place.

[TricMagic]

Call box(es) of pizza.

"Have something to eat. Still a ways to go. You too." Eats pizza.

[Fluffe9911]

Upon seeing Tric materialize multiple pizza boxes out of nowhere Alfred reluctantly accepts a box then bursts into tears

[Magmacube_tr]

Drukalfar: Summon Shadow Beasts.
Dice: 12-3=9 (water distortion)

Alfred: Calm down and contemplate life choices.
Dice: N/A

TricMagic: Summon pizza, then eat some.
Dice: N/A


A pack of shadow beast lunge out of Drukalfar's back in his command. They disperse and scout the area. There is not much to see other than a flat sea floor and the myriad of fish. One of the beasts, however, has encountered something strange. In a far distance, in the right-foward direction, something is... making a loud sound. Shaking? Flowing? The beast can't go there, as it has already went as far as it can from its summoner. This spell has a range.

The beasts dissipate, their observations are insignificant other than the mysterious sound.


While the drow silently contemplates what has been learned, the human is curled up on the elevator floor. Alfred is alright, he this is just a dream, he this isn't real. He This is just someones his imagination playing as tricks on him. He pinches himself, hoping to wake up, of course that doesn't happen. This is real, as far as he can tell.

Tric decides that he is hungry for some pizza. He summons a box of pizza, sits on the floor and starts munching on. He nudges Alfred and offers a slice to the poor man.

All three of them start eating. It's the familiar shape of the creature that has Alfred finally come to his senses. The halo glows to speak.

"So, how are you?"


The room is clear of threats, as far as you can see. The exit must be somewhere still out of sight.

What Do You Do?

[BlackPaladin99]

drukalfar summons more powerful shadow beasts and inspects the noticeable thing.

[Fluffe9911]

A combination of being given a couple minutes to cry calm down, eating some surprisingly decent air pizza and the halo speaking returns Alfred back to his usual self... mostly. Alfred wipes his face with the front of his toga and stands up. "Ughhh Ill be honest halo guy this is like... the second worst fucking day of my life."

Alfred gives a sad chuckle then turns to address Tric "Oh hey uh thanks for the pizza I uh really needed that although I'm generally the one to do the pizza deliveries heh heh... I err dont think we had a proper introduction my name is Alfred what's your name?" Tric gives Alfred a blank stare causing Alfred to unconformably scratch the back of his head "Ah well you can tell me later I guess.. same to you shadow man if you ever feel like talking... well then lets continue on shall we? I still got a pizza to deliver after all!"

Well that was awkward as hell time to head out and find that (underwater?) elevator before I die of embarrassment.

[TricMagic]

TricMagic is pondering the Halo-thing.

[Magmacube_tr]

Drukalfar: Summon more powerful Shadow Beasts.
Dice: 11-3=8 (water distortion)

Alfred: Search for the elevator.
Dice: 14

TricMagic: Ponder over the speaking halo.
Dice: N/A


Drukalfar sends another pack of more powerful shadow beings in the direction of the mysterious flowing sound. The pack moves for a little while, and encounters a giant school of tiny calamari as the source of the noise. They all swim and create a giant whirl that makes the flowing sound. They dont stop their act, nor do they react to the intruders and do their collective dance ceaselessly. They seem to be moving around a long spiky vine that reaches all the way to the oceans surface, all its length undulating. one beast tries catching a squid from the swarm. It fails to do so, but that much offense is enough.

The vine ceases to undulate. With a single single swinging motion from the vine, the cephalopod school instantly retaliates, lunging on the beasts and tearing them apart in seconds like shrapanel from an explosion.


Alfred turns to take his first venture to the sea, and the halo say, "This is the worst day of your life for now. You saw nothing yet. You will have to meet my brothers to be able to say that for real."

But Alfred doesn't hears this boast, for he is already a good 20 meters away, staring at the navy depths beyond and the shadows of the numerous fish creating mirages in the water, while squishing his toes in seafloor silt. The sensation disgusts him, but he ignores it. The lego girl took his shoes and socks also, only his down-underwear remained with him. Curse her.

It doesn't take long at all for Alfred to find an exit. Well, a form of it. It is a chain made of... something, along with a wood sign next to it that says;

''Elevator glitches out of the map when it starts moving on from a place denser than air. I tried everything. This chain leads to the elevator up on surface. I am so sorry.

-Naturegirl  ''

The writing is made of some kind of green plant dye, and the chain feels like metal to touch and its length reaches all over to the sea surface, as it is implied.  Alfred signs, he will have to return to the elevator to tell the others.

Meanwhile, Tric is suspicious. Very suspicious. The being with the green halo is still around, doing nothing in particular. What can be its purpose? What does it seek? What goals does it have? Is it the thing that built the pyramids?

He doesn't know. This thing, whatever it is, is nothing like what he has seen before. It also gives no hint of what its true nature even is.

He will try to though. Skylink is for such occasions after all.


Silicon stares at his screen, the one screen that he has seen a billion times. He knows that the forumite has hacked into his control systems. He also knows that he won't learn much from this intrusion, this system was created by a forumite god that dissapeared so long ago that even he doesn't remembers his name. It is almost impenetrable. Almost. It crashes on him sometimes, but its no big deal. But its nice to have something different after all this time of mindlessly observing and cataloguing the potatokin evolving into similar, convergent forms on different floors and watching microreality engines of floors degenerate, dooming the floor they render into oblivion.

It's boring to be stuck in a single, small room with a screen for what it feels like an eternity or two. Why not have some...

f̴̳̆ú̶̢n̵͎̒ ̵͍̅?̴̻̈́


The halo, along with the creature turn back to Tric trying to get into the inner workings of the mysterious thing. Tric can tell that he has been found out. But the halo doesn't seem to be angry. It sounds quite amused, in fact:

"You know, if you wanted to have answers, you could've asked."


Alfred has found the exit. The swarm of squid seem to be uncaring of you beyond defending themselves. They had plenty of time to attack.

What Do You Do?

[BlackPaladin99]

drukalfar rejoins alfred and sends shadow beasts to scout up the chain.  If there is nothing dangerous, drukalfar climbs the chain.

[Fluffe9911]

Upon reading the sign Alfrid looks confused for a second before scoffing and turning around to head back to the original elevator "Hey I found this like chain I think we gotta climb to reach the other elevator and get outta here and stuff... so uh yeah follow me!"
Lead the others to the chain and attempt to climb up it afterall how hard can it be?

[Magmacube_tr]

TricMagic: Ponder over the speaking halo (repeat because no new action).
Dice: N/A

Alfred: Return to tell the others.
Dice: 13

Drukalfar: Scout the chain, then start climbing.
Dice: 20-3= 17 (water distortion)


Tric relaxes at the reaction. But he has questions nontheless.

''Who are you? And what are your intentions?''

"I am Silicon. Siliconcube. I am a Cubical. I am the only caretaker of my brothers. You should know this all really, you know one of them."

''I don't think I understand. Who is that?''

''Come on. Magma. Magmacube. Rings a bell?. You must have seen him where you came from. He lives there.''

''Oh, yes I have, I have. But the more important question is what your intentions are.''

''I am the caretaker. I can't tell much about it. Don't ask why. All you must know is to not trust anything. Expect the worst.''

The halo and the creature dissappears into thin air just after their last words. Tric is left to ponder once more.


Silicon is proud of himself. For some reason. Now, he could have just given him the entire documents worth of helpful information with single tap. But what good that did to the countless adventurers who came before them? They all died. Silicon is sure they will either give up, or die to the hands of the monsters beyond. And by not giving them the info, he can sit back and watch their gruesome downfall.

Ah, so thats why Magma likes that weird game so much. What was its name? Midget Bastion? Pygmy Stronghold? Cüce Kalesi?..


Alfred returns with his findings, leading his party to the chain.

For Drukalfar, its quite easy. He had plenty of practice climbing the trees of his forest home. So after he makes sure nothing threathening is up there, he quickly ascends the chain and dissappears above the sightline the water gives.

Tric goes second. He doesn't climbs of course, no. He simply swims his way to the top. The air is as dense as water here.

And Alfred comes the last. Climbing a chain is not that much different from climbing a rope. And Alfred doesn't knows how to swim. So he has to climb the one hundred meters long chain. The air-water makes things much easier, especially when lost grip halfway and started to sink a bit.


The human takes a deep breath, or at least tries to. He kneels and coughs up the brine flavored air out of his lungs, gasing for normal air. He notices that he's touching plastic. Elevator is on a floating plastic platform themed after the cliche single-palm-island. The ocean is as still as a mirror, and blue as pure cobalt dust.

He enters the elevator along with his weird friends, who had been expecting him.


♫ du du dun dun, dun dun dun du du du... ♫

Indescribable metal noises

♫ du du dun dun, dun dun dun du du du... ♫

"Missing/cor-ERROR-nection-nnnn beacons-cons detected. Targeting th-e-e next-t-t floor... :27"


Elevator opens to a small room. No, its not even a room. It's more like a very short corridor. The walls are made of pure solid darkness, just like one of the rooms earlier. At just a meter away, a curious structure stands exactly 5 meters tall. It's a frame made of cubic obsidian blocks that are so smooth and perfect that they appear to be one single structure. So much so that their corners and edges are perfect 90 degrees and do not show any imperfection.

Tric can vaguely guess what this is, Alfred may also.


''This is an obsidian portal. All ᒲ╎リᒷᓵ∷ᔑ⎓ℸ ̣ ╎ᔑリship is of highest quality.''

What Do You Do?

[Fluffe9911]

Upon the elevator door opening Alfred freezes in awe not quiet fully believing what he is seeing "Is that a fucking nether portal?"
Head up to the (nether portal?) and feel its surface surely its not what he thinks it is right?
