That… that is the Archstone…” Cole makes a snap decision and attempts to blast the stone from Fear's grasp, burning through around half his life energy in an instant.

Quote Well, she doesn’t know yet. But yes, I expect something… interesting to occur now. @Halcyon The Only Mirth suddenly spoke. Watch out! @Through The Living Glass Fear is attacking… The halls darkened, and the sound around them seemed to… diminish. Mirth’s voice gets quieter and quieter. Anguish is here. A figure in a pitch black cloak enters the castle. They wear a mask, and extend a hand, black flames bolting outwards. @Dragonheir The figure smiles slightly, and the world goes pitch black around Cole. When it comes back, the figure is gone. There is no sign of the Archstone. Edited December 20, 2024 by SpiritOfWrath

He gets up, stripping off most of his clothes so he doesn't bleed on them, and so he gets as much wind as possible. "We're going to die now, aren't we." he says. "Of course, I was before, unless I wasn't." More light comes back into his eyes as his cuts slowly knit together. "So really, it's the same. Thus, I can continue doing whatever I want, but faster. I wanted the stone, so I should get the stone but faster. Thus, I should go politely ask ghost man to give it to me for something more important, like pie. I was almost lucid in the middle there - was that you, Gronk? Maybe you have a better idea." 1

And when you eat pie, nobody else can. But if you use the Archstone, you do not use it up. Thus pie, to Cole's logic, is more valuable than the Archstone. 1 minute ago, SpiritOfWrath said: Gronk appeared. “Bad. Bad man. Ghost be evil.

I'm glad I don't have to worry about that, because I'm too crazy to care." he smiles broadly. "So once again, I'm your only hope. This time I hope you are more helpful, because otherwise you'll die, I think. That wouldn't happen otherwise, so it could be a problem." 1

But they didn’t radiate any heat - rather, they seemed to radiate an almost numb feeling. A disconnect. They almost touched him, but he was able to find some shelter.
