HEART GAME: REQUIEM (run 2)

[idolpro]

You awaken in the ☆ZRAEL dorm common room. It’s dark. Darker than usual, and the reason why is immediately apparent: the lamps are all extinguished, the stars have disappeared, and the moon has shifted to new. The ocean below the glass panes of the floor is silent and still. Everything feels cold and unmoving, not unlike a painting.

They're both quiet for a moment.

"She's gonna live a long time," Hurricane says. "Probly a lot longer than any of us."

...sounds lonely.

"I think," Nemesis starts, uncertainly, "that she was alone for a really long time. Maybe. ... and I guess that'll happen lots more times, too."

Roll INT for me.

...not for a long time, I hope.

You see it before the others do-- the large, wolf-like form stalking you from around the corner.

...

It's wearing boots.

Whoa! Look out!

Re: CITY REMAINS

The others spin around-- Nemesis freezes up entirely and Hurricane shouts, "-- that's him! Hierophant!"

The wolf cackles, lowly, and lunches towards you, teeth bared.

Who's Hierophant?

[But he's already going for the stakes in each pocket - drawing them, one in each hand, even as he attempts a dodge.]

[Agi = 27, that would be a nat 20 thanks very much.]
