TURQUOISE

[dramatispersonae]

Dark stone makes up the walls of this small cool room, and they tremble faintly as if afflicted with some terrible noise or nearby conflict.

PROLOGUE

[dramatispersonae]

You are faced with three stone statues: one of a roaring lion, one of a snarling wolf, and one of a huge and fierce hawk.

As a team, you must pick one.

So be it. By the cat you are cursed.

[ Suddenly you are all shrinking, the ground rushing up at all of you, everything changing--until finally everyone in the room is now a small, fluffy kitten. You are still capable of speech if you were before. ]

ROUND ONE

[dramatispersonae]

To regain your true forms, three tasks must you complete--of the head, or of the heart.

[ Two small stone sculptures appear on the floor: one of a book, and one of a rose. As a team, you must pick one. ]

[tiny fluffy blue-white kitten stares down at her paws... totally anticipating the same thing]

This is unexpected. Somewhat of a relief. Still perplexing.

Book.

CHALLENGE

[dramatispersonae]

[ The book suddenly breaks free of the stone; it is now made of paper and cloth binding. Only one page shows any words, however. ]

Within me lies a home for creatures
Along with many other features.
See only trees and I am out of range.
To find me, make a softer change.

ROUND TWO

[dramatispersonae]

[ Two small stone sculptures again appear on the floor, the same as before: one of a book, and one of a rose. They are a little bigger this time. ]
