ZRAEL Amnesplora

You awaken slowly, laying in the middle of a cold, hard stone floor … and realise that you have absolutely no idea where you are, how you got here, and who any of these people are.

Some of you may also be wondering who you are, too. Hm. That's probably concerning.

[ Amie is led into the room and just stands where she's placed, not really of much use since she still can't see. ]

Uh, let me know if there's anything I can help with, or maybe a way to wash my face so I can stop being blind...

There's some different things here... one second.

[ Viatrix checks out the kettle and the sink. Does the sink turn on and is the kettle empty that she can fill it? ]

[The sink turns on. The kettle rattles strangely.]

[ ... Looking inside the kettle? is there something wrong with this thing? ]

You find a small but perfectly serviceable loaded revolver with three bullets in the chamber.

[ She has no idea what this thing is, having never seen anything like it. As such she pulls it aside and sets it on the counter. If Amie's vision can be restored, maybe she'll know what it's for.

Viatrix proceeds to fill the kettle and then bring it back to Amie. ]

Hold still. The water's going to be a little cold, but let's see if we can wash this out of your eyes.

[ She'll proceed to try pouring a slow, steady stream of water over Amie's eyes. ]

[You successfully remove the blind status effect]

[ Newly unblind, Amie wipes the water from her face with her hand and smiles at Viatrix. ]

Thank you, that's much --

[ Then she spots the revolver on the counter. ]

Wow, you found that in here? [ Clearly she knows what it is. ]

Yeah. That's what was making that rattling sound. Do you know what it is?

Yeah, I do. [ Amie picks it up gingerly. ] I don't think I'm used to using one, but it's not hard. It is very dangerous though. This thing can kill someone.

[ She demonstrates how to aim, pull back the hammer, squeeze the trigger, and uncock the gun if needed. Very sure about how it works but she's holding it awkwardly. And her tone is more serious than anything she's expressed until now, by far. Almost official. ]

I'll hold it for now, but if you need it then at least you'll know how to use it. In the meantime, we can keep looking around, maybe?

[ Viatrix follows along the gun use and safety lecture dutifully, apparently listening faithfully to the whole thing. She's not certain she could use it herself, but it's important to know. ]

Mmm. There's quite a bit more in this room than the last couple. We should try to search it thoroughly.

[ On that note, Viatrix starts looking the robe in the room over for pockets that might have stuff in it. ]

Carefully. Okay! [ And the chipper demeanor is back! ]

[ She's as good as her word this time, and starts by looking at all the various papers and notebooks that are scattered around. Scanning for anything that might seem of use so she can report back. ]

There are three clippings. ”28 now missing under mysterious circumstances.” ”Who Lives In That House on the Hill?” ”Reports of Cthulhu-esque Monster in Local Lake”

Hidden beneath the clippings was a carrot. Huh.

The first notebook is empty, except for one page at the back: "do it for her".

Read the next one?

Um, if there's a lake anywhere I think we should avoid it.

[ She picks up the carrot! And yes, reading the next notebook. ]

This notebook is filled with scribbles in such bad handwriting you can't read anything in it except the numbers "666". There are cute doodles though! whoever owns this notebook has been practising drawing anime eyes, and cute faces turned slightly to the left.

Read the next one?

[ Ahhh so cute! ]

[ Yep reading the next one! ]

This notebook is filled with different pentagrams and magic circles. One one page, which has a sketch of the same pentagram you woke up on, has a scribble in the margin, "if they're gone by daybreak, so's all this hard bloody work"

Read the final notebook?
