"Lose the battle, win the war" sort of thing?

@Legend

Yeah, that's the kind of thing I'm getting at.

[Disdain]

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

Really? I haven't seen any of that!
*Frowns*
There are only weird paintings where I'm at!

@Meta

Ooh, there's a vampire over here! I didn't see him through any of the mirrors; that's how I know he's a vampire!

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

*Looks at the man*
-Man- Once again, we thank you for your service. Without the help of travellers like you we may not have survived for many years. Fare well.

@Realmatic

It's no trouble.

[Legend]

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Yeah, that's the kind of thing I'm getting at.

@GalaxyRaider

Pretty much always winning the war though?

@Disdain

Wow! That must mean there are no mirrors between you!

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

@Legend

I'd say that's the norm, yeah.

It's no trouble.

@Heroic

It was fun, even--no problem at all.

[Disdain]

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

@Meta

That is also true!

[Legend]

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I'd say that's the norm, yeah.

@GalaxyRaider

Does that not get repetitive?

[Realmatic]

@Efficacy

Follow me, you two. *Walks briskly toward a woody, leafy arch and waves you after me* Now, you asked where I'm from and what happens now. *Snaps my fingers when I arrive in front of the arch and it opens in a swirling green portal* Right through here. Careful on the other side—it's a bit of a drop. *Steps through and you hear a fading hoot*

[Meta]

<Snipped quote by Meta>

That is also true!

@Disdain

Wow! Lucky!

@Legend

The kind of things dealt with here, they aren't exactly fun-centric. I'd say nobody really loses for the flavor of it. Winning as much as possible is in the general best interest so that's what they do. As much as they can. It just happens to be a lot.

@Realmatic

*Raises an eyebrow and follows you through*

@Meta

Ooh, I think the vampire needs a blood donation; he's looking kind of pale! Poor guy! Hey, mister, I think there's a hospital around here somewhere and you can get blood!

Everyone loses joy in life eventually.

@Disdain

*He bites you*

@Heroic

*Your first foot through gains no footing and you begin to fall from high up a huge tree; there are many more spaced out all around with people milling about, but a short way below you a vine is floating in mid-air at an angle*

@Legend

Well, that's a little pessimistic, don't you think?

[Disdain]

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

*He bites you*

@Meta

*He meets squeaky resistance like the werewolf and I giggle* Aw, I don't have the blood you're looking for!

[Legend]

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Thanks! Also, I think you're the only girl in this fight that's not evil--the other one is Kirina--so you're totally a breath of fresh air. Abby, right?

@Balance

Yeah! I'd hold off on the not evil thing though.
