As Lilac turns to him to nod, she pauses for a second. Something in her expression shifts. "Your eyes. They're..." She frowns. "They remind me of someone-" She shakes her head, but she seems somewhat subdued. "Someone I know...?" She laughs suddenly. "Ignore me." Following the map, she reaches the mushroom area.

 

ayck curses himself. im getting worse... no room for error.

You head in that direction. As you make your way through the forest, your foot gets caught. Then, your entire leg falls through a ditch, disguised as forest floor. It was a trap. You are stuck.

Quill looks in her pack to see if anything good was in there. If not, she looked for anyway to get out of the ditch without alerting the shades or anyone else.

Which do I do?

One of the faceless creatures is blocking her path. It’s holding a spear.

... i think you're just lost.

anyway! you arrive at the mushroom field. it is open, and unoccupied by any other tributes. there seem to be no creatures or shades nearby. the ground is scattered with plants and mushrooms. a river is heard ahead.

Yeah, but Bob’s not the smartest and doesn’t realize if he’s lost. He also resents the gamemakers, and likes to think that they lie about everything,

Bob experimentally picks one of the plants.

Ephraim shakes off the initial shock of the fall. Up ahead, he sees a large fish heading in his direction "Nope"! The current was strong, but Ephraim was Br... District 4! Summoning every ounce of strength and training, he pushed through and made it to the north side of the river. He collapsed in the mud momentarily, catching his breath "gotta get, warm!"

You reach the mushroom area, and see Bob.

You make it to the north mud bank, but your legs are still submerged in the cold river. A school of fish head in your direction. (for reference: blood only attracts shades when in open air)

Assah eventually reached the river. She felt bad for leaving Laurellen behind, so she decided to wait a bit. She sat against the base of a tree, trying to be as quiet as possible.

Let's do both! Your leg gets caught, a creature is approaching.

(sorry- i believe you can do this- you got this-)

The scythe doesn't love you back.

It is very sharp under your hand. Any pressure and it would draw blood.

It won't move.

Laurellen sighs wishing she could have her beloved scythe. To cut her enemies down like wheat as she once did. She giggled and tried one last time to yank it free.

It causes a rash on his finger immediately.

He walks over to the river, which takes a little while but he’s not willing to risk running.

Wait, is there anything in her pouch that could be of use?

Doesn't work. Won't budge. Sorry-

Lilac turns to Ayck. "Do you want to win?" She asks. "The game, I mean."

Did you open it?

If you open it, you find a loaf of bread and a club (weapon!).

You finally make it to the river.

Hehe figured it wouldn't work

She's more than a bit crazy

She gently pricks her finger, drawing a single droplet of blood. She smears it on both sides of the scythe's blad and walks away into the forest.

[Canada Lover]

Quill finds a loaf of bread, which would be useful for later, and a club. She heard a figure approach, and saw someone swinging their club at the monster. Quill tried to climb out of the pit. She had practiced this back home, and she hoped the pit was climbable.

Hearing a crash nearby, Rask heads towards it and finds Quill stuck in a pit.  He swings his club at the creature approaching trying to buy Quill enough time to get out of the pit

[The Stormfather He/Him]

so sorry I didnt notice it had started. At the cornucopia, Arc quickly walks away, glacning over his shoulder and following the river east to that shelter. He ignores the supplies.

if he see's anyone, he instantly walks the other way, hoping they'll not come after him.

Lilac smiles. "That's a good answer."

Without hesitation, she turns to him.

"If we make it to the end of the game, you can kill me."
