Kirumi Tojo's Palace | The Ultimate Maid's Failures

[kandata]

By now everyone may be used to find themselves in bizarre locations, between going into palaces and visiting Nekyia. It might not come as a surprise that it has happened again.

What might come as a surprise, though...is how empty this place is.

All around you there's nothing more than a large, gray, featureless expanse. In the distance there seem to be bars, curving upwards to gather so, so high above you, possibly hundreds of miles above, so high it’s hard to distinguish.

It’s a cage. So unfathomably large. You could escape, were you to get to the edges of the cage, but...it would take forever. No matter how you look at it, you're trapped. The atmosphere is so...hopeless. Devoid of anything even remotely positive.

Not that you want to hang around for long, do you? After all, this is someone's palace. Not a place to stick around at. What to do, though?

It’s all so...empty. Silent. Featureless. A flat expanse of hard gray tiles.

Gather together, everyone. Gather and choose a direction. North, East, West, South. All directions look completely identical, but could it affect your time in this place, somehow? Probably not. But all treks start with the first step. Perhaps, if you get moving, you'll progress?

[ Hmmm. ]

If there is more than one of them out there, I'm in favor of bringing the one I found along with us.

It's not exactly elegant, as far as combat possibilities go, but I can make it work.

I believe firmly in your pilot capabilities, McGillis!

If it is not too much trouble, do please go ahead and bring it back.

[ Better safe than sorry as far as he's concerned. He isn't entirely sure what combat would look like when they're up against one - not that there's any guarantee that they would be fighting against one, but when there's...five. It kind of seems like the possibility has risen by a good amount. ]

No trouble at all. If anything, I'm glad my unique training can come in handy.

[ It's nice to be a pilot again! It'd be nicer if he didn't have to completely break his back to do it but... beggars can't be choosers.

After the meeting but before they proceed, McGillis will return to the gym and come back to the group piloting the Exisal. ]
