Entry tags:
event: portal seven | the void

The final portal doesn't seem to be a portal at all. It's a glitch hole.
Located on the lawn of the library is a hole much like the ones that have plagued every new location for the past week. As with them, it hurts your eyes to look at too long, but even if you should muscle past the pain and stare straight into it, you can make out nothing on the other side. Nothing, save for a shifting, twitching, swirling void.
Unlike the portals, which were vertically placed like doorways, the hole at the Library is strewn across the lawn: if you want to enter it, you're going to have to jump. Of course, there's no guarantee it will even lead anywhere. Touching the hole or sticking your arm in doesn't have any effect: you'll pull your arm out unharmed. As far as jumping in completely goes, those who jump in disappear from sight. As long as you're on the Mayfield side, there's no way to tell what lies beyond the hole.
There's only one way to find out.
[ooc: Feel free to roleplay up to the point your characters jump in, assuming they do. A single group subthread will be created in a few hours revealing what happens on the other side.]

She flickers blue and green around her hands, lacking in hairsticks to use as a weapon but still dangerous without them.]
Very well.
(OOC: Doc Scratch might tag into threads if you reply!)
no subject
Is a weapon required?
no subject
I can fight without them.
[It's not ideal to not have something to channel her powers through, but The Handmaid doesn't expect offers of help. Although that's all she says, there is a hint of vague curiosity in the way she says it--does this girl have extra weapons to pass out?]
no subject
[Several members of this species have been brought to this town thus far. She knows little about them. Many sentient, sapient organic entities had evolved in the past, but only one had ever displayed the potential that so interested the IDSE. Not for the first time, she wonders if there exist worlds where this is not the case.]
Many here are incapable of self-defense. I seek to rectify this. Should you require further power or modification of attributes, please inform me.
no subject
You have some power, then, to summon objects?
no subject
To 'summon' implies that the object already exists in the desired form.
no subject
But, like Handmaid, he at the least brought his magnum and has it holstered in a belt he bought some time ago to hold it. He eyes the bubble that is surrounding them with curiosity.]
This portal is likely the most dangerous yet. A void of nothing. Mayfield really is breaking apart it seems.
no subject
[A little reprieve from her work. Something she doesn't think was ever in the plan. And also, apparently, a place that requires a great deal of energy.]
They overextended themselves, I suppose.
no subject
[He looks around at the scene carefully.]
What do you think happens if the void swallows someone?
no subject
She gravitates to the nearest calm-looking person, without caring much who they are. In fact, she isn't even looking anywhere in particular.]
You're way too fuckin' okay with this.
no subject
It would be pointless to get worked up. There is little that can be done about this place looking as it does.

[It's not unlike, she supposes, voluntarily walking into a black hole. ]
I suppose we'll have to be quick either way.
no subject
[Quick, huh? She does get the feeling this could end quickly. Abruptly. Either painfully or mind-shatteringly.]
Well, here's hopin' this guy knows what he's doin'.

... So now that we're here, we just gotta hope this voice ain't one of them, right?
