[hunting]

[You feel a tug, insistent, demanding and desperate. Powerful enough that it seems it intends to rip you out of existence itself. And there is sensation of a barely restrained exasperated breath echoing in your ears you're taking too long, idiot...

Then it suddenly stops, the halted motion launching you face-first into a giving surface.]


[OOC: Please join #vampireheart. All healing abilities off. Combat abilities and items on.]

Do you mind if I make my way through here?

...Should I go back the way I came then?

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[You hear the voice from the start of the heart ringing in your ears.]

"I suggest you move forward quickly."

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[glorious]

[...BOLTING FORWARD.]

[Dandy lets out a wild sound and hurls himself after you!]

[wait maybe i should inventory it while i'm at it]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[Having barely escaped Dandelion, you move forward. You can now see the prone forms of bodies lying just ahead of you, all over the place. There is also a watch.]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[glorious]

[...are any of these bodies recognizable?]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[Sure looks like Yuki, Shiemi, Allen and Apple...]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[glorious]

[...I know this is a heart and I know they're not my team, but I am taking a moment to kneel by their bodies regardless.]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[They are covered in massive claws marks, as if from a huge dragon-like creature. I WONDER WHAT THAT COULD BE, SELENIA.]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[glorious]

[...]

[taking a deep breath and standing, moving to take a look at the watch]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[It kind of looks like so, except badly broken and stained in blood.]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[glorious]

[frowns a moment, then casts a First Aid on the watch]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[Your healing powers are off in this heart. :(]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[...BLASTED HEART GAMES AND YOUR HEALING NEUTRALIZERS.]

[I guess the watch gets to stay dead then! ...Is there anything else in the area?]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[LOTS OF DEAD BODIES... but you also hear... snarling ahead.]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[glorious]

[...does this snarl have a burble to it?]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[hunting]

[Not really, but it does sound a bit... weak?]

Re: AATHER (THE RING)

[glorious]

[that's...better.]

[following that snarl...]

[As you enter the Ring, you notice that it is entirely surrounded by the ghostly figures of every Personae, all of them looking disdainful or menacing. You feel a great rage building in you...

The second thing you'll notice is the large silver wolf chained to the center of the Ring. The chain seems unusually strong, even as the wolf lunges desperately against them, driving a thick metallic collar deep into its throat. The wolf chokes with each lunge, clawing at the ground with its powerful paws and straining every muscle as much as it can. Its blood red eyes glow with desperation and fury.

But the chain isn't the wolf's only problem. It is being beset by an even larger black wolf, also sporting red eyes. This one sees to be made of the Darkness itself. It laughs with a gloating male voice as it continuously leaps at the silver wolf and then back out of reach, each time rending flesh so that the silver wolf is scarcely more than a mass of ugly wounds. Though the silver can barely stand on its trembling legs and abused body, it never stops snapping and trying to land any sort of attack on the black wolf. The black wolf shows no sign of injury or fatigue.

"Don't forget your place, knight. You can do nothing to me," the black wolf taunts.

Behind the combatants is a massively, tall wall of those pesky threads. And there appears to be something in the center...

But amid all this chaos, you might almost miss that your hunger has risen significantly.]
