Carnelian

[dramatispersonae]

Your team finds itself inside a large, empty white room, 20' by 20'. In the very center of the room grows a thin, wooden tree with one wide, faded yellow leaves and three smaller, bright green leaves. After a moment the shadow of a young boy appears from out behind the leaf, peering curiously at you before turning away to face the wall.

"Oh oh, shall we look for the lost magical relics? Or the wonderfully brilliant golden weapons of ancient kings? Oh, but it is so hard to decide... I suppose I shall let you pick."

ROUND 1

[dramatispersonae]

The walls of the room shimmer for a moment, and then the image on them changes. From the images on the walls, your group is in middle of a jungle, with towering trees around you. The air in the room grows sweltering hot and horribly sticky. The wall in front of you shows the image of the gigantic roots of the nearby trees, thick enough to walk atop.

Climb up the trees.
Walk under the roots.
Walk on the roots.

ROUND 2

[dramatispersonae]

Your group finds itself back in the lower levels of the jungle. The air here is extra thick, and a low buzzing sound fills the room. In the distance you can see mosquitoes, fist-sized mosquitoes, flying straight toward you!

Swat at the annoying mosquitoes!
Stand very still.
Run away!

ROUND 3

[dramatispersonae]

Your group moves on, or at least tries to. The group suddenly finds itself face-to-face with a labyrinth of vines hanging from the trees for some distance in front of you. The vines higher up look less densely packed, but they're also a lot thinner than the ones near the ground.

Climb through the vines.
Climb up and swing on the vines.
Cut through the vines.

ROUND 4

[dramatispersonae]

In the middle of the path, a troop of monkeys have settled in with piles of fruit and are tearing into them eagerly. The excited racket is almost deafening, but most definitely annoying. The fruit looks amazingly delicious, though, with its glistening flesh and soft exteriors.

Just past the monkeys the path continues on.

Kill the monkeys.
Sneak past the monkeys.
Steal some fruit.

ROUND 6

[dramatispersonae]

As you continue on, your path brings you closer to the edge of the river. It also brings you right up to a giant anaconda that lays stretched out along a good 20 feet of the pathway you've been following. The river near it is shallow with a slow current, but you can make out fish in the water. Fish with teeth.

Fight the snake.
Feed the snake.
Cross the river to avoid the snake.

Weighed down with the body of your opponent, you finally notice that during the battle, you somehow moved into the vicinity of a group of monkeys in the middle of eating fruit. Again.

Kill the monkeys.
Sneak past the monkeys.
Steal some fruit.
