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.]

This is a retrieval mission. [don't be so simple-minded here gosh isn't basic mf knowledge that there's no tangible foe to cut down, making the handling of every conflict that much more difficult...] We'll likely be briefed of how to proceed with the mementos once we return to town.

[because while some people here may not make it, others definitely will. She's personally got no plans to be part of the former, so.]

(Reimu THRIVES on simplicity, okay? Simplicity is easier than all that fancy "thinking" stuff she's heard about.)

Maybe with them, we'll be able to go beat people up...so what are these mementos, anyway? I haven't seen any of them myself.

Have you not read Grey's letter?

[these seems to be really basic questions to ask. Was she expecting better of Reimu? Hard to tell, but still, all that information has already been provided by Grey beforehand.]

[paradisemiko]

I skimmed it...I think.

(Normally, it's not a good idea to expect much out of her. She remembers getting the letter, but reading it? Not so much.)

I know getting all the mementos is a good thing, so I'm just going with that notion.

[ex_seventh238]

...

Do as Grey's instructed and stay with the group.

[no point in giving out any more complex commands.]

[paradisemiko]

Fine, fine.

(So of course Reimu's moving along...by which, she's just sitting on her turtle while he flies for her. Eventually, she speaks up again.)

...I'm kind of hoping something comes out already. It's too quiet.
