[BAD END BAD END breaking off from that-- and then answering, although he's clearly in some kind of pain and clutching his head with his free hand as he's dragged.]

[aliksirette]

Why in the name of Five-Headed Dieve would you do that? You'll probably go mad, now!

[Has run out of ammunition, so she hands her gun to Tavros.]

Syllatrix that.

[floatingplot]

[They don't, and nor does the temple. Some of the skeletons scorch and crumble to nothingness, but there's more, always more.

On the second level is a gate, a mirror to the one in Atuin, with a half-lit set of crystals.

[IN GOES THE GUN-- and out come the crystals he's been carrying with him since the palace.

His head still hurts like crazy, though, even as he messes around with his sylladex.]

[floatingplot]

[One two three four five--

[pchaaair]

[aliksirette]

Wh- Unhand me!

[But letting herself be dragged because she wants out just as much.]
