9Alone5 8WHITE6ROUTE4 EnterThe burning page of ancient tome is held aloft by Psychic energy. Hurriedly, it's touched to the wick of the forgotten lanterns, and a fifth patch of light blooms in the forest.
Hideo Kino and Meowstic escapes the beast's snare, unscathed thanks to their quick thinking.
But the beast has many traps, and others are not so swift or lucky. Cardamom Bliss and Melody Miro are the next to spring a hidden danger. Vicious irons barbs thrust from the cloak of shadow, cruel, jagged bonds that cut like iron brambles.
Cobalion roars, his cold fury coalescing into a shaft of brilliant frost that bursts from his horns and carves away the entangling iron. Like a chain fence before an avalanche, the trap is ripped away, torn and scattered into some distant corner. The wounds of the barbs remain, as does the frost from the frigid act.
As Cardamom Bliss lights the sixth lantern, a deep chill leeches deep into his arms and legs. It feels like goosebumps on his bones, like frost forming in his marrow.
Ruby Walker , teetering precariously amidst the floating candles, lights the seventh lantern, and falls.
The viscous goop covering Kaida Adachi and Onix wriggles, worming its way across her skin and seeping into her joints. Her lips turn blue, and her teeth start to chatter. Above her, Onix shudders, the stones of its body clattering together in a terrible clangor.
As the deep chill sets in, Kaida Adachi 's Shinx slingshots luka chêne at the creature and the Augur bursts with bartered Radiance, driving the beast back into the darkness between the bookcases.
In a moment of utter desperation, Luka shows Faith.
She offers her Life for the Light that will give 478,072safety478,012 to others.
Pangur accepts.
Luka lights the eighth lantern, at great cost, and the temperature in the Archives drops again. Her breath now come in great clouds of shining fog, freezing on the branches of the trees above her.
Tail waving, Pangur turns to luka chêne as she returns to him. The cat looks up at her with his deep, astral eyes. They shimmer with reflected Radiance, gleaming letters mirrored in his pupil-less gaze.
"The binding between our lives is set," he says, before turning to the others.
"The Altar is lit. The creature cannot pass through the wards. It is sealed outside, but it will come when called." Pangur uncoils from his spot on the floor, revealing the ninth lantern, set within the stone at the center of the living forest. “It is time.”
BLACK ROUTE the
The table ignites, black flames carving the curved symbol into the table. Nigredo. The black mark of alchemy.
Dust of animal, fruit of the burning plant, flowing blood of mineral, a snapshot of the past, crystalized change, still and silent liquid, black rushing iron. The components for an ancient concoction, injected into Mars' mind by his connection to the book.
Sooty acid eats into the table, cutting away the sharp corners. The chunks of granite fall away, crashing to the ground.
Liquid smoke slides down the sides of the rounded Altar in a noxious waterfall, pooling on the floor in acidic clouds.
kyle lopez feeds his mixture to Foxtrot. The sweetness of the Rare Candy makes it go down easy, and the Mightyena suffers no ill effects.
As they walk off, it stumbles, footing suddenly unsure on the tiles floor. It stumbles again, its six feet scrabbling for balance. Six? No. Eight.
The dog looks down with both of its heads, trying to figure out what's wrong with its feet. Its black and gray fur twists strangely as two sets of muscles battle for control. The heads pull away from each other until, with a yelp of pain from each of them, Foxtrot completes its mitosis.
Downstairs, acrid smoke mingles from a trio of caustic reactions. Aaron Toral 's blue, acid smoke eats away at the fixtures and fitting, causing metal to rust and plastic to shrivel away into nothing.
Katherine Fairburne 's casual mixing of cleaning supplies forms an unexpected byproduct: Chloroform. The vapor billows out from the puddle on the floor, putting her Sableye into a deep, comatose state.
oscar clayton 's otherworldly blot spreads like mold, creeping through the air in thick blotches until it contacts the Chloroform, and the billowing cloud of Aaron Toral 's blue smoke.
The three clouds mix and mingle, forming a toxic vapor, a dark thunderhead that crackles and crawls along the walls and floor.
The blinking cloud engulfs the first floor, consuming benches, work equipment, filing cabinets, and the bodies of the forgotten workers. It spreads low at first, filling the first floor at thigh height before rising like heavy eyelids, creeping up the walls and then proceeding up the staircase.
There is no stopping this fog, and it will continue to expand.
On the second story, Aaron Toral and Martín del Mar witness a flash of light coming from a door at the far end of the floor.
They find a heavy pane of reinforced frosted glass leading up to the third and final floor. There is no handle, only a thin screen showing a blinking green cursor, and a keyboard recessed into the wall.
