Apple's Heart

Your arrival is marked by the feel of sand under your feet, with the sound and smell of the ocean wafting in from behind you. A dampness hangs in the air and the sky is overcast. Directly in front of you the sand fades into a grassy hill, on top of which a white castle rests. To the left, a little ways off, you can see tall sandstone cliffs. Off to the right is a large field of sunflowers that stretches out into the distance. There are no paths or signs anywhere to be seen.

[he stares at the book and then at the pot, his frown deepening. He tosses the book aside and slams the door shut behind him, stalking to find the first door with a hint of stairs]

Guard bro follows you. "There aren't any stairs that way."

He points to the column. "The most obvious place. But you can't get to them yet."

"If I had to say...you need a good reason to get to them. What's your reason?"
squirreledaway: (Really quit whining.)

I want to leave. I don't want anything to do with her.

"Going to see her isn't really going to solve that..."
squirreledaway: (Really what the shit was that?)

He sighs.

"I mean, she can tell you how to get out of here. But if you go to see her, that's having something to do with her, isn't it? Either way it's not like you can ignore her."

... I can't ignore her because Emil likes her. Even though I won't forgive her.

"She did something so unforgivable that you won't have anything to do with her?"

He scratches the back of his head.

"I know about that. But I also know...she isn't that kind of person. What happened wasn't her. And if you try to reach her thinking that's who she is...well, you won't get to her."
squirreledaway: (Really dangerous minds.)

He is unfazed by your glare. "That's just how it is. I'm not saying you have to forgive her. But the column won't open if you really think she's the kind of person who would poison someone instead of help them."

He blinks, looking a little surprised.

From somewhere on the column, you hear a loud clunk.

HELPFUL SMILES???

"Well? Go on up."

If you look, you will see a part of the column has vanished; within it is a spiral staircase going up.
squirreledaway: (Really go away.)

Zen just smiles and waves. You can head up the stairs.
