Emerald

[dramatispersonae]

You find yourself inside of a dark and dusty basement that looks like it hasn't been used in years. There's a small bit of candle light for you to see what exactly is IN the room, and you'll find that there's a table and chairs for everyone to sit in though they don't look like they'll hold very much. On the table however is a feast of food that looks rather delicious, and it smells rather good as well. A celebration, maybe?

You'll also notice that surrounding everyone are large, cackling ovens, definitely lit up and burning. They're all open so you can see the fire roaring pretty well though the room itself isn't very hot surprisingly. You can first count fourteen, each the color of an Aather team.

In the very back though, there is another, exactly like the one from the ring. So basically, the room looks like:



You'll also find individual slips of papers with the actions that you can perform. )For those who cannot read, a voice will read them to you as soon as you pick it up.)

Once everyone has settled, the warped voice speaks again, "When you make a decision, you'll throw the appropriate piece of paper into the appropriate oven of your choosing."
