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.]

(Okay?)

[She didn't understand most of that, but SURVIVAL IS GOOD]

[He doesn't really understand it either, but hey survival is indeed good.]

She said okay.

[Yuki holds out her hand and presses it briefly against Loosha's flank. Her mouth moves once again in an incomprehensible manner....]

Complete.

[Loosha will find that she feels much lighter and her movements are much easier to carry out! Hopefully this doesn't mean she dashes straight out of that 20-foot mark.]

[calmingmelody]

[nah, there's a crowd preventing that. But she does feel really light! Like she can do a pushup on her flippers!

... She did it!]

(Wow, thanks!)

[hintcoinplz]

How are you feeling, Loosha? Do you feel faster?

[tenderoblivion]

[Yuki will surreptitiously withdraw when she finishes. Hopefully, the manatee could at least serve as a good mount for those who were incapable of defending themselves.]

[calmingmelody]

(I do, and I feel better too.)

[that glitch atmosphere was pretty disturbing, but at least now she won't be a burden.]
