This is...

Very intriguing.

I looked at this and noticed a few Ks and stuff that could be removed, and some possible rearrangement of spaces. I think this is a bit closer. Not sure about the bit at the end, but it seems to make sense in context.

Quote from: Cerol Lenslens, Speculator Extraordinaire
MAN RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL AFTER CAR CRASH YESTERDAY NIGHT. POLICE MANAGED TO PULL THE MAN AND HIS DAUGHTER FROM THE WRECKAGE YET HIS WIFE WAS DEAD ON IMPACT. LATER ATTEMPTS TO REVIVE AND STABILIZE THE MAN WERE MET WITH SUCCESS BUT EVENTUALLY  HE SUCCUMBED TO HIS WOUNDS BEFORE DOCTORS COULD SAVE HIS LIFE.  DAUGHTER OF THE MAN TO SURVIVE THE INCIDENT WITH MINIMAL INJURIES AND HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR FOSTER CARE.

Given the heart monitor flatlining on the TV, and this guesstimation of the text, "don't die" takes on a really heartbreaking context.  :-[

So! Maybe this whole odyssey has been symbolic of our slide into death? If so, by backtracking, maybe we'll be heading back towards life? Test the solidity of the second light bridge. (The one with the word 'fragile' beneath it.)

Edit: Looking at it again, I think 'Daughter of the man to survive' is more likely 'Daughter managed to survive'.

Haven't we actually walked over that before?

And now don't you feel really bad for that whole "make bridge out of your own dead bodies" thing we did earlier? Because I do. :-[

The plot, it thickens!

but yeah, North sounds like a good plan. I forget what was up that way, presumably another way forward.

There were no walls in the room where we got our arms and died a whole lot, if that's the north you're thinking of. So... I guess it's open and there are other ways to go from there?
Probably not though. Maybe.

I wonder what would happen if we combined this thread with your necromancer thread, monk... Yeah, I think we should head for the... pit.

Oh no! You've spoiled the twist ending where Nym is a small child in foster care repressing the gory deaths of her parents! MY GAME IS RUINED!

Nope. We jumped through it and landed on the ledge below, since we didn't have the purple power at the time.

THIS IS NOT AN UPDATE, JUST A REMINDER OF WHAT WE MIGHT'VE MISSED.

Before the man could decide what to exactly do, a memory appears in his mind, vivid as the many deaths earlier.



Confusing? The memory itself zooms out, revealing a couple of bodies, ashes and a man that looks just like the current one.





I think we've left something behind, people.

Anyone miss the eastern passage in the corpse room? The one with a purple fog and a huge black X?
