[ the view of the city shatters with the window as Solomon crashes through it, looking stunned. although you only climbed a few stairs, he's falling to the field below from about twelve stories up now.

There's someone who's not supposed to die and is supposed to get back home, but I don't know who it is, but I figured if something drastic happened, then that might clue me in.

If you only do what you're told because you're told to do it, and don't think about what you're actually doing, or whether you really want to do it, I think you'll end up regretting it. In the end, you'll still bear some of the blame for the consequences.

I'll go with you!

Do you need someone to check your head?
Re: UPSTAIRS
I might as well backtrack and see if either of those two girls know anything, instead. Since you're this useless.
