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?

[ Well. This is hot and not in the fun way. Metal heats up fast and McGillis has not only himself but also Kirumi to worry about... the latter of which he just kind of... gently tosses over the flames? Uh. It's. It's not elegant but it's definitely less violent than anything Monokuma had been doing to her before. He'll even toss a Dia afterwards.

With Kirumi out of reach of the fire, it's time to think of himself instead. The flames are licking up at the Exisal and it might just be a matter of time before they find the fuel source. McGillis doesn't intend to stay and find out when they do.

So he uses the cockpit's eject mechanism.... but it doesn't go fast enough and he lands in the fire himself (9). McGillis is now also slightly on fire! IT'S GOING GREAT!! Give him a second to roll over the floor so he can put out the bits of his clothes that were just starting to burn up, uh?? ]
