Woohoo! I didn't die! I feel quite satisfied with myself Wink

 		When I read it, it said:

You retrieve the book and begin to read it, it lists in detail everything needed to create a brazen bull. It, in general, is a lot of metal.


And I didn't took it with me so it should still be in the shelf in the study.

*sneaks forward out of shadows* It's so ridiculous that I know this, but the sacrifice of people to a brazen bull is the worship of the god Moloch:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moloch (ETA: Please note: it's CHILDREN that they sacrifice)

Hope this is of use to you guys. I knew those Dexter novels would come in handy sometime. *returns to lurk in the shadows*

*Note to self: Join this game if there is a next round...*

 		I think we have to find some sort of ladder to get to the top of the bull and start a fire. I tried using my rope braid but no luck, it was too slippery. In the room next door, I saw this:

Quote:
Within is a rather unadorned room...the only thing of note that you can spot, is a stack of wood against the far wall, with what looks like a scroll or something of the sort hanging above it.

The scroll reads:

"Life is like fire, both require oxygen to burn.
Sometimes to gain something, you must also give something."

Atop the stack of wood are the implements to start a rather large fire: the stack of wood itself, of course, along with matches and kindle.

Do we have to torture someone too or will the fire be enough? Any volunteers?

 		Be careful, Joshua may very well want you to do that...This reminds me of stories where the killer sets up the conditions for the victim to kill themselves without them necessarily knowing it.

I don't think you should light the fire. Crying or Very sad

Any more quips about sacrificing me and I'll have your tongue-tied with a knife! Wink

I just landed on a metallic surface after jumping down a hole. I hope I am not standing on the brazen bull. Confused

 		I AM IN THE BRAZEN BULL. REPEAT, I AM IN THE BRAZEN BULL.

Well, it is a floor -- that is, you're standing at the bottom of whatever it is that you are in. The walls curve around you, almost resembling a ribcage.


I think. Mad
