Peridot - Game 198

You find yourself standing in a small, snowy clearing in a pine forest. It's nighttime and bitterly cold, moreso than Camelot; the stars go on forever, and there's a very bright full moon. You can see quite easily. There's a stone archway behind you, and through it you can see the Ring, still with the tables full of mead laid out. Scattered around the clearing are twenty-four free-standing wooden doors, carved and polished. They don't seem like they'd lead anywhere if you opened them, but well, #personae.

Ink isn't here...

Are you suggesting a secret affair?

Just for the warmth, Briar.

Boring . . . but I'll take it.

So, what do you think about this place?

I think the rainbow has to be the best part.

It's fun and exciting, isn't it?

And clearly the most magical thing here. What kind of rainbow lets you stand on it?

Why, one that transports you somewhere. So, hope? Joy?

I like hope.

Hope it is.

[PAINTS THE RAINBOW]

And what power does hope give us? ...I sound like an afterschool special...

Momentum. Hope keeps us from stalling when things look their bleakest. It lets us get back on our feet when others would be drained of all energy.

Ah, lovely. You have it.
