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



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?

[bless you nick, always giving me opportunities to kill fray.

That sure is a truly unfortunate series of events that have led to this moment. Fray can't exactly avoid an attack like that because he is not the fastest climber (between the armor and his sword, he is heavy) so instead he summons the Fallen to launch an Eiha at the buzzsaw. Shockingly, this works (14), allowing Fray to knock the buzzsaw away and continue to climb safely upwards. Avrae, you failed me again.]
