"The Basement Of Reality" Back in the first room: - there was a hairy cat embryo - inside some hairy translucent liquid - inside a hairy glass jar But Rhu ignored that. Rhu is inside a rounded crevice, an artery or lesion of sorts He keeps going. It's getting smaller. It gives when he pushes against it. <Roll perception: 5+14 = 19> The walls are getting: smoother, muscular, and now they are throbbing - Earlier it seemed like they were moving subtly, but now they're definitely throbbing. There aren't any eyeballs. <Heal check: Natural 20> Clinically, you seem to be dead. You're not breathing, digesting, normal body function has stopped. It doesn't hurt. But you don't seem to be decomposing, or being digested by this . He still has scars from the sphinx. He's just not doing anything metabolically. At all. <Roll 3> Your muscles continue to work. (Yay!) "Where am I going?" The voices all stop. all silent but thumping and liquid noises i have to push my way through like poop thru the intestine the further i go, the harder it is to breathe (so: harder to speak, but I'm not breathing) now I'm gasping but shouting: "THIS ... TUNNEL ... HAD ... BETTER ... END ... SOO--" I use my passive perception to notice the end of the tunnel. But there's no light. There's a space without any light in it. It goes down around between 1-20 stories and slopes gently to level. There is an organ (globular and covered in closed eyeballs -- maybe?) suspended with tendons and weird tubes like inside-out tracheas. Everything hairy. Streaks of teeth. Glob of viscous fluid fall onme. I puke. The puke Fall to bottom Organ eyes start opening Shout at it, no response Wzlk through a Rhu-shaped hole nearby Crawl crawl crawl fall into void Tumbles out into a void. It's not dark, but bereft of surface, and therefore of hair Emerge from blob with one arm hanging off of it and reaching out over head. No skin, fingers like tentacles, Rhu prays to Hazz Hazz makes him aware of how much time has passed. The further he gets, the more massive the blob appears. He tries vaguely to stabilize himself, he just lies and there. As he gets further away, the hair becomes less well defined, which is weird and anti physics. (He's seeing with hair) I fart. It slows me down slightly. Eventually he can no longer see the blob. He is now entirely alone. With his thoughts. He has reached a Dead End.
