The protagonist wakes up in a dense forest with their party members unconscious. They try to wake them up but are unsuccessful until using a spell. They explore the forest and find metal paneling at the top of the trees and metal roots beneath the ground. They come across a corner wall and examine it, finding a small panel that opens to allow a robot to collect sap from the trees. They taste the sap, which tastes burnt. meadow. You feel a pulsing in your head as you gradually realize your own consciousness and you can feel a familiar kind of sensation around you. You can feel dirt and grass beneath you. You open your eyes and you can see that you're in a pretty dense forest. It takes some time to adjust but there are very dim lights around you, bulbous plants kind of growing on the floor and in the trees providing with just enough light to see your immediate surroundings. There are vines hanging from the trees, all of which are pretty close together. The space above you is covered entirely by a canopy of leaves. No light seems to be shining through from above. The floor is, like I said, dirt and grass as well as leaves and twigs with lots of dense vegetation growing here as well. In addition to all of this, you can see your party all unconscious around you. What do you do? Okay, uh, I'll say go roll perception. Um, you can do... it could be medicine if you want. Okay, um, everybody has been pretty much just knocked unconscious from the fall, you presume, and there's plenty of vital signs. Everybody is breathing. What do you do? Uh, they don't, they don't actually wake up. It's just from you kind of like shaking them around. Um, I think you can, you, okay, uh, you go around just kind of rousing anybody you can reach, which is everybody, and nobody's able to just, like, get shaken awake. You have, this is, hey Alyx, this is Dice Club, you have spell slots. You have spell slots. I'm just going to say. Okay, uh, you kind of speak your, your incantation, um, and you can feel that familiar warmth kind of permeate throughout your body and then exit through your words, and as you do, your party all begins to kind of rouse into awakenedness, and now you all see the same thing that I described to Meadow before, this kind of dense forest, the trees all together. Yes. What do you do? No, you're not there. Everybody else is there. I, yeah, I guess, I guess that's worth pointing out. Marsh is still, Marsh is still not there. It's, it's, right now there's Meadow, and Saridon, and Venus, and Wren, and Cyrus, and you're all there. Marsh is not. Um, okay, just right off the hit, just, oh, I'm up! I gotta climb a tree! Okay, I'm into that. Okay, uh, do you want to roll, go ahead and just roll perception. Okay, the forest around you is absurdly, unsettlingly quiet, like, all of the vegetation kind of damps any noise that you would be able to hear, or any noise that you would expect in a forest, like, none of that is there. You say you climb up, are you actually climbing up a tree? Okay, you know what? I think that is reasonable. You kind of scurry up a tree, and it, it's pretty short. It's, it's, it's like, the, the, the trunks of the trees are, like, thick, so you'd assume that they'd be taller trees, but the kind of branches, they tend to branch outwards more, and as you climb up, you realize that, very near to the top of this tree, there is a, a ceiling of metal paneling. Okay, you, you kind of, at the base of this tree, you kind of start digging and rooting through, and these trees, so they're all definitely, like, trees, sycamore trees, to be precise. I don't think I'm going to discount that with your 20. The, they've got, like, smooth bark, the trunks are wide, and they, they just kind of are trees, and as you kind of dig down into the, into the ground beneath them, you kind of follow along the root pattern, and you can see that they gradually shift from kind of a natural wood to more of an artificial substance before they're just metal, the roots of the trees, and as, as you dig farther down, you do, like, a foot down, you hit metal. Yes, there are, there are kind of these, like, bulbous plant growths that are kind of everywhere, and they provide light. It's dim light, but there is some, and you can see your kind of immediate surroundings, but not much apart from that. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Good. What I want is to be. I want I want to exist. I am here. I am in front of you. I am talking to you and you are talking to me. But that is not I am not all here. And I have not been all here for a very very long time. That is what I want. The five of you have been walking around for kind of a while now and you can see that you've seen just a lot of the same. As far as forests go, there's not much irregularity. This is maybe the most uniform kind of forest that any of you have ever been in. Not really any hills. It's mainly, it's very flat and kind of boring. As boring as a forest can get. But you've been walking for a decent amount of time and ahead of you, you can see a wall. It kind of moves off to the left, but the wall that you see is a corner. And it turns 90 degrees and you can see you could continue going straight, you could turn left, but there is a wall at a corner that you see here. Alright. You whip out the tapestry. The last time you looked was... when? I really need to take good care of it. You showed it to Enrica. Was it really? Okay. I believe you. Let's go with that. You can see... After that, you can see seven figures and that symbol of a bird with the seven squares. And you can see there is kind of a stick figure that looks more geometrically shaped, like more blocky. You can see actually a lot of those. And then you see there's an empty space and then you see a tree and five figures. Yes. It has not done that this time. Yeah, that's very cool. Okay. Let's go with that. You can see there's a tree and five figures and that symbol of a bird with the seven squares. And you can see there's a tree and five figures and that symbol of a bird with the seven squares. Okay. Go for it. Are you trying to... If you're trying to... I think roll Perception or Investigation. Roll Investigation as you hit the wall. Okay. You can kind of tell that as you hit it, it's not hollow and it seems sturdy, like it doesn't give... It doesn't make a very big sound as you hit it. It just sounds like your hand hit a solid chunk of metal and that is all you can hear. All right. You continue walking and as you do, you can kind of see... Well, actually, first you hear the kind of whirring sound of one of those buzzing traps from before and it kind of comes up behind you and goes to one of these trees before it stops and extends a little prod into it and then retracts. And you can see on the end of this prod you can see there is dripping from it a little bit of sap and then it flies over to the wall that you're walking next to and a panel opens up and it extends that prod into it, waits a moment, and then flies off. It shuts pretty much afterwards. It's a very small panel and I think you all kind of go... It was really near to you. No, actually, it's not like an empty hole, it's just like the smooth wall that kind of opens a little bit and there's still walls there, but there's just kind of a port that it sticks its prod into. Once it closes, it is entirely flush and you can't really see any mark. The panel did close. I did say that. Oh, oh, yeah. Yeah, I mean, your finger gets a little bit of sap on it. Um... Ah... I don't... I don't think anything happens. Because I'm trying to decide now if... No, I think it would detect the robot and open like... biomechanically detect the presence of sap and just open on command. I like where your head's at. It was a cool idea. Sure, it tastes not great. It's just kind of sap. Actually, does sycamore tree sap taste good? Okay, it kind of tastes like ashy and burnt. It tastes ashy and burnt. It is actually exactly like the regular sycamore sap you have because I just did Google. No way! What? What? Many people describe the taste as somewhat burnt while others enjoy this quality. For instance, the sap has lower sugar content than that of maple trees, which accounts for the bitter taste. However, when sycamore is mixed with other types of sap, it can bring out a tasty butterscotch flavor. So I guess if you wanted to make some butterscotch candies, you can have some of it. But that's... It tastes burnt, you guys. And you know that it's normal that it tastes burnt! Ha ha! Ha ha! We do have access to wires. We do have access to wires. We do have access to wires.

No. I'm cutting there. Do you have any other questions for me, Marsh? No. I am sure that you have experienced that they have a knack for eluding me and getting out of some pretty tough scrapes. No matter what I have done, no matter how much energy I have expended into sporting, or I guess not me, but me, but you understand what I'm saying. Unless you don't.
