Descent into Darkness

[bravenewmods]

As the characters arrive, they will find what appears to be a rather deep cavern. Upon entering, the caverns are quite narrow, with twists and turns everywhere and different tunnels that all seem to be interconnected. As characters travel deeper within the caverns, reality around them will start to warp, they will start to see and hear things that aren’t necessarily there - images of old enemies, past failures, voices of condemnation, visions that strike at the soul and core of the characters. Once this begins, it will only increase in power and volume, demanding it be confronted, lest they be trapped within these caves forever.

[OOC: This event will run for a week. All characters who enter the caves will be subject to some of their deepest fears, darkest demons, and most abject failures. To overcome them, characters must help each other out, finding their purpose through strength of character and resolve to move forward. In general, these visions should require characters to come to grips with themselves. Illusory images and voices can and will appear and can take any number of forms, depending on what is most appropriate to a character. Additionally, characters may thread with each other and are encouraged to help each other out to overcome these personal demons. For those who wish to take part, they are able and encouraged to narrate their own personal demons, which will be on display for everyone who enters their thread. IC threads may be made in this post.]

Yeah, I think this is a dead end anyway. [He starts to follow her, to exit the large opening they'd found themselves in.] I hope they have a bathroom at the end, wherever those signals are leading us to. Or I might just use the wall.

[He sounds like he's joking, but he's half serious.]

Hey, Mami? Thanks. For helping get through that.

[She wrinkles her nose. He better not use the wall to relieve herself. That would be positively... Calderan.]

[But the smile is back, after that, and she nods to him. Maybe, she thinks, everything will be better. She looks at him fondly as they continue to walk, and remains grateful that no more memories or illusions come to attack them.] Of--of course. You, too, Yosuke.

end here?

Hey, you can always count on me. Let's get to the bottom of this cave, and see what's really going on around here.

[This cave was messed up, that's for sure. There has to be a reason for it, and he wants to know why.]
