[ WHAM—

It reverberates with a strangely beautiful harmony that feels like it's being played through your bones, and does not budge or even scuff. ]

[Huh.

[He steps back, considering. Is there anything he can throw at this door?]

Re: THE COURTYARD

[idolpro]

[ Well, I mean, there's the sports equipment and the game pieces and the pitchers and the fruit. If you really wanted to do that. ]

[... well, that doesn't look promising. Nothing with enough heft, really.

[Maybe one of those sticks would do something...?

[Yeah. Okay. He's got no better ideas, so he's just going to pick up one of those sticks and start walloping it against the door, possibly until it breaks, in which case he'll just go and find another one.]

[ At once, you feel it: the ground underneath your feet begins to rumble as something awakens from its slumber. The walls tremble, and then—wherever you are, you're suddenly met with a glassy octohedron. From it come pulses of what sounds like a chorus of song, gospel-like in the harmony—and then abruptly it changes shape, opening itself up as it approaches you.

Is that . . . That's not friendly, is it. Maybe you should go? ]

[Which means he probably should be.]

[K drops the remains of that first stick, and backs away. One step. Two.

[Then he runs for that open gate.]

[ You walk down the hallway; it stretches endlessly, it seems, but after some time you arrive at a fountain. ]
