Addie: Enter

<theDM> ===START===
<Addison> ... Whelp. Eidigo died. Maybe.
<Valera> You decide to provide yourself as a server to somebirdy else!
<Addison> Gah, you start up your "Client" application.
<Addison> Let's see where this goes.
<Valera> You know exactly who, as well...you run the server program and enter in ocularMagnificence
<theDM> Addie gets a popup
<theDM> "granivorousFiend would like to be your server"
<theDM> "Accept? Y/N"
<Addison> ... Isn't that Valera?
<Addison> You accept the invite.
<theDM> The popup closes, as does Valera's
<theDM> However, a new screen pops up for her
<theDM> You see a human girl, a human man, and a corgi, all chilling in a room together
<Valera> Who the hell are all those people? You recognize the human female though!
<Valera> She's....not as magnificent as you thought she'd look! But she's ok, for a human!
<Valera> You check around her room for a spot to place all the machines
<theDM> there looks like there's room for all of them inside, just like there was for yours
<Valera> You place all of them down! Everything you possibly can, are there any machines here that weren't there for you?
<Valera> GF: Hello! This birdie is wondering if you have anything in your sylladex?
<theDM> There are not, from what you can tell
<theDM> all three of the free ones, and the card, are there
<Valera> You place each of them down and place the card neatly on her head
<Valera> Then, you wait for a response
<Addison> You pick up the card.
<Addison> OM: Uh... I ahve plenty, why?
<Addison> OM: Do I have to throw something in to that glowing thing?
<Valera> GF: This birdie believes you should just empty anything of importance! All over the ground!!
<Addison> OM: Like what Eidigo did?
<Valera> GF: I'm unsure! It helps, I think!!
<Addison> OM: ...
<Addison> OM: I... doubt it. But thatk you for the offer.
<Addison> You call out to Joe.
<Addison> "I help me get this open, we need the glowing thing inside!"
<theDM> "Got it!"
<theDM> He comes over to help you, roll STR with advantage
<Addison> !roll 2#1d20-1
<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+-1) [8+-1] : {7} (1d20+-1) [12+-1] : {11}
<theDM> The wheel moves a tiny bit, but not enough for it to pop open
<Addison> "Let's try again!"
<Addison> You use your handy CLIMBING AXE from your trusty SURVIVAL TOOLKIT!
<Addison> !roll 2#1d20-1
<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+-1) [11+-1] : {10} (1d20+-1) [8+-1] : {7}
<theDM> It's still refusing, stubbornly, to open
<Valera> You wonder if you can brute force your way through this
<Valera> You pick up the bed that's in the room and try to drop it on the machine
<theDM> Roll Dex
<Valera> ! roll 1d20+4
<Valera> !roll 1d20+4
<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+4) [9+4] : {13}
<theDM> It hits the top, popping right open
<Valera> GF: There you go! Fly with the night, like the bed to the right?
<Addison> OM: Uh... Thanks!
<Valera> That's a good one, Valera!
<theDM> Addie gets bonked with one of the dowels
<Addison> "OW!"
<Valera> GF: Are you ok!! SQUAWK ARE YOU HURRT?
<Addison> You rub your head, that didn't feel good.
<Addison> OM: I'm fine. It just hurt a bit.
<Addison> Where's the glowing thing?
<Addison> And what color is it?
<theDM> Floating around Joe and Corvi at the moment
<theDM> Looks like it, and the dowels, are a lovely indigo
<Addison> You usher them out of the way.
<Addison> "Stay away from that thing!"
<Addison> Maybe...
<Addison> You throw the GoT doggie bed at it.
<theDM> Roll Dex
<Addison> !roll 1d20+3
<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+3) [20+3] : {23}
<theDM> It launches directly into the thing, which is promptly absorbed
<Addison> "Alright, that should be enough."
<Valera> You watch as she perfectly arcs that plush bed into the sprite, and caw out in amazement, you're currently crab walking around the room with your head facing up screaming
<theDM> Joe looks... extremely confused
<Valera> What a woman!
<Addison> You do the carving thing, repeating the process Eidigo did, right up until the tombstone appeared.
<Valera> ....That's a woman right?
<theDM> Which one?
<theDM> The smaller one is, yes
<theDM> Anyway, Addie carves the dowel, and it's promptly scanned by the Alchemiter
<Valera> You confirm with the strange voice in your head that it is indeed, a female woman!
<Addison> (She's dressed up similarly to Laura Croft, kinda an obvious female lol)
<theDM> As the cruxite begins to take shape, dense, opaque fog begins to seep out of the center of the platform
<theDM> It expands rapidly, quickly rushing over you, rushing over and consuming everything
<theDM> You can't hear anything
<theDM> You can't see anything
<Valera> Can Valera see anything?
<Addison> Where... where is everyone else?!
<theDM> Valera cannot
<theDM> But this doesn't look like anything bad
<Addison> You try to feel around the alchemeter. Tehre's got to be something here!
<Addison> *there's
<theDM> You fall forward, your hands reaching the alchemiter
<theDM> Looks like it's still there
<Addison> Is there anything on the platform?!
<Addison> What can I use to solve this puzzle!
<Valera> You begin clicking and dragging around the room not quite understanding what's happening? Is the program crashed?
<Addison> Eidigo had a tombstone, why can't this be easier!
<theDM> The program still seems to be running
<theDM> It might be her artifact?
<theDM> Addie, youre senses aren't working like they should
<theDM> You can't hear
<theDM> You can't see
<theDM> You're alone
<Addison> What about touch?
<Addison> That's what you're asking, you are feeling around for stuff!
<theDM> You're just feeling the alchemiter
<theDM> There's nothing else there
<Valera> You try messing with the program to the best of your ability to see if you can help in any shape or form?
<Valera> You click through all the tabs, trying all the functions and sporadically clicking, is she ok? You're unsure but it's worrying!
<theDM> You can't find anything!
<theDM> Addie is alone
<theDM> All alone
<theDM> Is Joe even still there?
<Addison> He has to be! Am I even in my room?!
<theDM> You... think?
<theDM> It's hard to tell when you can't see anything
<Addison> You... You try closing your eyes. Not trying to sense anything.
<theDM> He's not by you
<Addison> And try to calm down.
<theDM> Nothing happens around you
<Addison> Is there ANYTHING you can use to givey ourself a hint?
<Addison> What about a flashlight? You have one in your sylladex!
<theDM> You pop it out, but it's not doing anything
<theDM> You still can't see
<Addison> You capatcha it again. Gah, this is frustrating. You call out to see if Joe is still there. There has to be SOMETHING you can do!
<theDM> You can't even hear your own voice
<theDM> How could Joe?
<Addison> Well, you go and feel around other parts of the room. He's not gone, none of them are. It's like that dumb room again!
<theDM> Roll Perception
<Addison> !roll 1d20+3
<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+3) [13+3] : {16}
<theDM> You orient yourself
<theDM> The bed's behind you, while the Cruxtruder is to your left and bacl
<theDM> That's where you last saw Joe
<theDM> Maybe he's there?
<Addison> You walk over to there. Is he there?
<theDM> Roll Acrobatics to not trip over something
<Addison> !roll 1d20+4
<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+4) [17+4] : {21}
<theDM> You stagger over there, hitting the cool metal of the Cruxtruder first
<theDM> But then, you feel it
<theDM> You feel him, Joe's arm
<Addison> You can't yell, so you shake him a bit.
<Addison> He's not going to get hurt because of this stupid temple!
<Addison> And neither is Corvi, you are finding him next!
<theDM> Joe feels you. You can almost feel him say something, but you don't hear anything
<theDM> He grabs your arm, holding you close to him
<Addison> Well, you grab onto him. Joe has always been really smart, and since you developed an interest in Sign Language, the two of you both know it pretty well!
<Addison> ... Too bad you can't see.
<Addison> Rats.
<Addison> You try to find Corvi next, NEVER letting go of Joe.
<theDM> Joe holds tight to you, too, but you can feel him poitn you toward the bed
<Addison> You follow him
<theDM> He's not going first
<theDM> This is your test
<Addison> ... Right.
<Addison> You pull him with you, making your way towards the bed.
<theDM> When you hit your shins on the bed, you know you've made it
<Addison> Okay, you feel around on the bed!
<theDM> You feel his fur. He jumps a bit, probably barking, but quickly recognizes you by your touches
<Addison> You pick him up in your arm NOT clinging to Joe, resting your chin on his head.
<theDM> As you pick him up, the fog begins to glow white
<theDM> As it becomes brighter and brighter, you feel yourself losing consciousness
<theDM> The world goes white as you pass out
<theDM> ===END===
