[Game 21] Through The Train

[arsgoetia]

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???]

Unfortunately.

[arsgoetia]

"Don't recall asking, but thanks."

[psychopompous]

Do you have a good reason why I shouldn't kill you right now?

[arsgoetia]

"You think you can, right now?" He gets up in your face. "You wanna bring it? I wanna get out of here alive and bring anyone here who wants to with me, but if you wanna have a showdown while you're being strangled under the weight of oncoming hell, odds sound good to me."

[psychopompous]

I certainly can right now.

[arsgoetia]

"I cannot fuckin believe your priorities," Hale says, but he draws his hand out of his pocket.

[psychopompous]

But I will not.

Harm a single one of them and Hell will be the very least of your worries.

[arsgoetia]

"Oh no now I have two enemies, this train and some asshole who took offense to me being on the train."

[psychopompous]

I take offense to your existence, but yes, that will do.

We graciously appreciate your assistance in our mutual endeavours.

[arsgoetia]

"Yeah, well, fuck you, I don't much like yours either, but we gotta work with what we got." He puts his hand back in his pocket.
