event: portal seven | the void

[mayfield_mods]

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.]

[ At this point, it doesn't take much to inspire Meiling. She straightens up her back and looks down at the hole. ] ...you're right. You're absolutely right! [ Meiling plants a fist in her palm. ] They made a big mistake!

[ She then extends her arms out to each of them, since if they're going to go... ] We'll do this, together.

-And out goes Patchouli's hand.- Three years of my life have been spent in prison. I will fight them for every day more beyond this.

[Remilia smiles, flaring her wings out dramatically as she takes their hands as they stand by the portal's edge]

Good. Then today shall be the last!

[There was no characteristic tinkling sound to warn of Flandre's approach, only the scramble of little feet muffled by the grass before Flandre is there and crashing into them, squalling and fluttering her wings.]

Remi, Remi, there you are--it's scary!

[The portals had reminded her unpleasantly of the carnival; she was just a liiiiittle freaked out right now. And not controlling her strength nearly as well as usual.]

It will! It absolutely ... will? Huh?[ Meiling turns her attention to the sound behind her, and her eyes go wide at the voice. ] Flan—?

[ Her grip only tightens when the group is crashed into, letting out a surprised exclamation as she tips forward over the edge of the portal.

Hoo boy... ]

-Well it was a good thing they'd collectively agreed to go in. Flan pretty much assured that. With all of their weight tipping towards to portal... well, no turning back.-

[badladyscramble]

Ack, Flan! Flan, you're supposed to stay-

[But that's too much force taking her surprise and soon the vampire is tumbling in, taking the others with her to here]
