CITRINE.

[dramatispersonae]

[The inside of the tent is spacious, but spare. In the center of the hard-packed dirt floor, as promised, there is a heavy oaken trapdoor with an iron ring set into it.

Apart from that, there is nothing.]

RULES

[dramatispersonae]

[OOC: Discuss as a team, but choose as individuals: do you venture back into Camelot? What will you try to save? How many of you will be going this time, and who will it be?

After every trip, players will be asked if they’ll be making the trip again. Each new trip starts a new round. After five rounds, when everyone in the team is satisfied that they’ve made enough trips, or are rendered unable to make further trips, inform Mordred and you’ll progress to the final round. Status effects, some mental and some physical, will be handed out each round, increasing in severity rapidly. Anyone who finds their status effects too rough to role-play may request catatonia instead, but that will effectively remove them from play until endgame.

This is not an exploradora, but a game about choices. If you choose to venture into Camelot, once you’ve picked your route, the journey itself will be handwaved except for the status effect and the success or failure of your salvage attempt.]

...Well then.

So, this is the way back into Camelot...

Re: DISCUSS

[truecaptain]

What do you think?

Re: DISCUSS

[phantompass]

Thank goodness.

Re: DISCUSS

[soft_reset]

I don't know...

But we can't not go, can we?

Re: DISCUSS

[truecaptain]

Yeah. But knowing that... doesn't that make the answer too easy?

Re: DISCUSS

[truecaptain]

We can if it means protecting your teammates. None of what we saw is probably real.

David-san.

Re: DISCUSS

Is the rest of Citrine there?

Re: DISCUSS

[phantompass]

It does seem tricky...

Maybe we should be cautious.

Re: DISCUSS

[phantompass]

They'd have to be...

Re: DISCUSS

[headcannon]

Hello again. I'm sorry for the circumstances, but I am always pleased to be placed here.

Re: DISCUSS

[soft_reset]

It may not be... the thought of all those personae falling after that battle seems a bit unreasonable. Despite that, I think even if it isn't real, the persona will really destroy the things we leave behind.

Re: DISCUSS

[truecaptain]

I don't trust it. The first time... only one person should go out. If something happens then we'll know it's not safe to go out there.

Re: DISCUSS

[soft_reset]

We can't leave them.

What else do you want to save, from the cabin or otherwise?

Re: DISCUSS

[phantompass]

It's a little unfortunate, but I'm glad to see you.

What do you make of our situation?

Re: DISCUSS

[truecaptain]

I don't think so. The Persona need us. And usually people who aren't in the game aren't affected. Right now, the people most in trouble are playing the game.

Re: DISCUSS

[soft_reset]

Oh, we meet again.

Re: DISCUSS

[headcannon]

Even so-- real or not, games are won or lost by the choices we make.

And so, I suppose we'd need to weight what seems like a more powerful choice -- to declare that even in hypothetical you would risk yourself for your friends, or to refuse, putting the power of your choice instead into not letting yourself be spurred to potentially useless action.

It's an interesting position he has put us in.
