WEEK 1 EVENT






The passage of time in this place is not easily tracked, not without a clock of some sort, anyway. The days may even begin to blend together, only occasionally interrupted by confrontations with the robot spiders or discussion with whoever is on the other end of that terminal.

It seems like things won't change any time soon. But something is off today, and some of you may notice it sooner than others.

The mind-numbing drone of the nearby builder going about its work has been with you from the very start. Located behind the terminal and far down below, it was the first sound you heard upon arriving here. It has been arranging walkways in increasingly complicated and baffling designs, extending them ever outwards into space. This much has not changed at all during your time here; the drone of the machinery moving and metal being slotted into place may even have become somewhat comforting background noise.

It is completely silent today.

The skittering of spider robots through the vents or patrolling the area is not heard either, and though the atmosphere remains as gloomy as ever, the lack of sound will undoubtedly be noticeable to some of you. Thankfully, you can still hear; it's simply that the machines have stopped their usual tasks, for whatever reason.

Investigate?

Perhaps we should form a vanguard.

[He's already moving to be one of those in front, given the fact that he brought up having a shield. Just in case the damn thing has a bomb on it.]

[ Just gonna...hide slightly behind Lucifer...shield good. Shield very good. He also has his own weapon out, now, just in case (a baseball bat, glowing a light shade of blue). ]

Might be the best option, since we don't know what's made it stop...

[He'll move forward too-- Lucifer can handle the shields, he'll bring the attack power.]

A good thought process. Combat ready individuals to the front, those who cannot to the back in case they need to find a hiding space.

We should be ready for anything, regardless.

Dunno how much good I'm gonna be without a weapon, but...

[He's going to the front regardless. He's still got hand to hand skills.]

[...Is he really sure this is a good idea--]

...Don't be afraid to go to the back if this proves to be a larger foe than anticipated. I'm--

[oh that's not good]
