SAPPHIRE

[ you’re in a kitchen, with wide-silled windows set into every wall and framed by team-colored curtains! you’re seated at a table with a team-colored tablecloth. it’s a little strange here; the counters and cabinets are made of bone, as are your chairs and the table, and everything seems juuuuust a little oversized, though you can’t quite put your finger on how. warm sunlight streams through the windows; it’s very bright and cheerful in this room, though the shadows are equivalently deep and dark.

on a table sit a small pile of bone tokens, each stamped with the image of an animal on one side and a crescent moon on the other; there’s a rat, a pig, a bat, a one-winged hippo, a horse, possibly a giraffe, and others! there are ten of them. ... there’s a note next to them that says “For the machine.”

on the far end of the room there is a simple, brightly colored machine. the note next to it says “Feed me.” trying to put anything besides tokens in here causes it to smoke and spit the foreign substance out. ]

...I'm going to be mad if we lose to them though. Even though they must have gotten more than us by now.

...But not truly angry, of course?

...We'll see how many we end up with. If we have enough we can do it.

Even if we ran ourselves into the negatives, it'll be worth it to see the look on their faces.

We can beat them with generosity!
