Snippet #2560365

(Sadly, xxMCxxMIKEYxx won't be participating in the story any more. From now on according to aleksiempainen, Tallya's actions can be controlled by everyone, as long as she stays in character.)

Joanne's eyes were half closed, a light smile formed on her face.
"You are the owner of this place? What it is like?" Joanne asked calmly, like she have already had her glass of wine.

"What... just... happened... What was that thing? Where is everybody?" Tallya thought and started running.
She was surrounded by darkness, not being able to see anything. She reached to take one of her matches until she remembered Simon's words...

"This is a light trap corridor. ANY light at all and it sets off blackpowder charges."

"So it's either wandering around without any sense of direction, or being slown down by numerous illusions." Tallya thought and grinned.
"Both are difficult, but neither is impossible." She thought and lit a match.

"The latter is more fun!" Tallya exclaimed and started running. She could see an enormous pit in front of her, yet she ran over it. The pit disappeared. She was a bit surprised when rocks were falling in front of her, but that was it. Her legs were being attacked by snakes, she could even feel the pain from their bites slowing her down a bit. However Tallya kept running, until she could see light in front of her.

"Is this an illusion too? There's only one way to find out." Tallya thought and blew the match. The light was still there. Probably it would lead her somewhere.


"Tallya!" Joanne exclaimed. "We're gathering! Only Izzy is left"
