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?

[ Okay, first of all, there is a lot going on here. Since he's getting hit by Megidolaon, he'll have to deal with the consequences of that first, though Argenti isn't inclined to make much ado about it considering Yoon's in trouble, even if it does hurt. There are also others having a difficult time to contend with.

Argenti casts Media on Yoon, McGillis, and Soujuurou.

Then, he also runs into a mad dash towards the creature. But he will suddenly make a feint before dancing around the enemy, only so that he is able to aim very low to strike at the back of its feet, trying to unbalance the creature with all that he has (12)! Hoping to also put efforts into making it let go of Yoon! }
