[Game 21] Through The Train

The marbles from each group are inserted into the pupils in each door. The eyes blink, unnervingly, then seal shut. All at once, the lights dim down in each compartment and fade back to quiet darkness . . . though you still see the occasional spark of magic along the windows and edges of the train.

You still have no electricity, and your magic is still dampered.

You can, at least, proceed through, either back or forward along the train. The compartments are arranged in approximately this order:

[#1 - ??? - Open] - [#2 - Sariel's Group] - [#3 - Elluka's Group] - [#4 - Maon's Group] - [#5 - ??? - Open] - [#6 - ???] - [# 7???]

Ours was "dso." Should you be sitting down??

Ohhhhh. Maybe?

[sits down while letting Sariel and Kano tend to him, although he's turning the words over in his head]

The "gwbxn'c" probably goes in the middle... Maybe it goes in the order of the train...? Maybe there are more...

There could be more... We're still stuck on the train, who knows what we need to get off of it.

Hopefully the other puzzles are nicer.

[they won't be]

Do puzzles like these happen a lot?

Yeah it's a magic thing.

Wait, really?

Apparently... Seals and stuff will have them a lot. It's like, ritualistic?

I've never heard of that for unwarding seals... That must be seriously high-level.

...I dunno if it's that high-level. Actually, because we can usually solve them, it doesn't seem that secure at all.

My seals can be broken with a broom or like, accidentally scuffing your foot through the chalk.

...Okay, it's definitely better than that.

I haven't had any accidents yet! But yeah chalk is like, the standard.

I guess by now I'm used to dealing with like... big-shot demons... so the stuff that a normal person could do isn't worth paying attention to as much.
