❧ peridot

You find yourself in a densely wooded area, in a small clearing, facing a cabin. The windows all seem to be closed tightly, and there is a red "x" painted on the door.

There are several narrow pathways leading away into the forest, but it is dim and misty in the approaching twilight. Vines hang low from the trees, curling slightly, and the air is hushed and too quiet. There are no sounds of birds or animals.

Kinda, but if nothing else, we can use the tissues to keep ourselves from catching whatever they have if it's an airborne illness.

Kay… I hope we can help 'em, then.

[ Glancing at Peridots. ]

Are we gonna go in then?

"Do you wish to help?"

...None of us are particularly well-equipped for dealing with illness, are we? It would be easier to find a medical expert and come back, no?

Assuming we could find one around here, it'd be better, yeah.

Who would construct a game without all of the pieces assembled? If we don't find a doctor, we at least ought to find something useful.

Mm, good call. Should we see what we're up against first?

[a little bristly] I did try to ask them what they were sick with from the very beginning.

Yeah… Guess so.

We'd just need to pick which way to go.

They all look th' same to me.

...These people seem a little too hysterical to be helpful...

Beatrice...I have at least a little knowledge. We should do what we can. [quietly enough so that whoever is inside can't hear] And I was just talking with Viola about the Persona running this game. She's kind. I don't think we should abandon them.

...We are coming back. If you would like to stay with them while we explore, you may.

And you're going to go off exploring without knowing what kind of sickness they have? Maybe they know something that can help us. Maybe one of them knows a doctor, or something that grows in the forest. At least stay here while I ask them, even if you don't want to go inside.

I am attempting to ask them!

Then we should also learn about the illness first. Perhaps they can't be saved.

They did not answer when I asked...

[KNOCKING ON THE CABIN DOOR] What are you sick with precisely!

Edited 2011-08-21 00:14 (UTC)

"We don't know!"

There is some crying going on idk.

Clearly there are some symptoms which lead you to believe you are sick in the first place.

[loud and clear]

Yes, I do.

"A-are you sure . . .?"

[unhesitating]

Of course. I'd like to come in and look at you. And I have some friends here who are willing to go looking for things, if you know where they might find medicine or a doctor.

The door opens!

The cabin is small with only one room. But there are a lot of people here—strange, bizarre-looking people with buttons instead of eyes and shadowy hair, that move with jerky movements.

There are three "beds" set up in the middle of the floor, each with a shadow person in it. One of them is coughing. All of the other shadow people seem extremely distressed.
