This is... merely the entrance Jade... You must be some type of dark-born creature if this is merely the entry point to your inner being.

@The Odeoron

What does that mean? Maybe it'll get even better as we go down!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Well... *I whimper comically* ...Possibly?... It might be the curse... but having seen how you approached the lighthouse on pillars of bone, i'm fairly certain you have just such a type of energy...

@The Odeoron

It's so cozy! Maybe I should get into interior design.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

*Swallows hard and audibly* Hehe... heh.... nice décor... Jade...

@The Odeoron

You mean to tell me I made this?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

I guess if he's unlucky enough to cross paths with me, i'll beat the answer out of him senseless! Now let's head inside then...

@The Odeoron

*Opens the door, revealing an irregular spiral path down into dark depth, lighted by a singular post halfway down the descent that casts scratchy, deep red marks against the chalky, ashen surface of the path like red pencil traces on charcoal*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Well... now see... that reeeaaaaly makes me hate this guy even more now.

@The Odeoron

I don't even know why he hates me so much.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Technically speaking nothing can kill us... but we can get hurt, though the damage is minimal back in the real world. If we do get tackled and killed too often... it's like that saying of "Death by a thousand cuts"... Unless your curse thingy proves to have its defences. that could potentially be more harmful.

@The Odeoron

That does start to scare me... it's not the first time he's cursed me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Well, think of it this way... are you dangerous?

@The Odeoron

I don't think so.

<Snipped quote by Server>

*Nods once*
One step at a time.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

There’s an awful lot going on down there, that’s for sure. But I agree, I’d rather check out- Well, not that.

@Magnanimity

I thought nothing here could hurt us. Can't we just go in, then?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Well... very likely inside your inner world and being... whatever is inside there... only you may truly be familiar with. It most definitely is not a lighthouse inside that's for sure.

@The Odeoron

Does that mean it's dangerous?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

If you mean the bones thing? No... for me it was that sun-like light trail as i hovered. For Orthrus... he just seemed to have hovered here without any trace of anything.

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Nope! *I grin over the top* This is exploring Jade's being... from mind to emotion to soul to subconscious to spirit etcetera...

Until we find what exactly ails her... this is going to be an adventure! *Rubs my hands fully giddy with passion*

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Preps myself just in case* Hey! Don't jinx this! This might look like a lighthouse on the outside, but that is everything related to Jade in there... it could be a whole world for all we know...

@The Odeoron

Where does it take us when we go inside?

<Snipped quote by Server>

*Reaches toward you, and a translucent, disembodied arm that slowly grows to full transparency at the elbow manifests behind you, grabbing your shirt collar to help you stabilize*

@Magnanimity

Woah—
*Rebalances myself*
Thank you so much!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

I’m not assuming anything outright. I see nothing that screams you’re in true harm’s way, at least right away.

@Magnanimity

Yeah, it doesn't look like we can fall. I hope not.
*The bony steps start descending toward the bottom of the lighthouse and I lose my balance on the first one, not expecting the sudden decline*
