So, yeah, it would seem that I have just given Leyton two new chest holes to breathe through. I am so, very sorry about this:

Quote:
As you look around Transition Village, muttering the word "laser," you can see the various houses of the town. All appear to have been abandoned, but you can see travelers like yourself through the windows. Some are searching the houses, others standing still.

After a moment you notice that there are thin bits of fog floating quickly around the village. They are so faint that you can hardly keep track of them.

Looking back at your fellow traveler, who has just finished consulting his ghost adviser, you speak the word "laser" one last time. This time the word seems louder and more focused.

As the word leaves your lips, you see beams of red light pierce the other traveler's chest.

He falls to the ground. The two smoking wounds in his chest appear to have killed him.


So let's recap. Yes, I do have laser beam eyes and yes it would seem that I just accidentally killed Leyton with them. My reply to this horrible development:

Quote:
Oh crap! I must quickly come to the other traveller's aid. This was not intended at all. I would like to see if there is anything at all I can do to help save his life.

My turn for today:

Quote:
Looking around in bewilderment, I reply to myself, "Well, that was pretty easy."

After a lot of internal debate the impatient adventurer in me takes over. I fight the overwhelming dizziness and take hold of the child's plastic bucket. Something in my gut tells me that while life beads seem plentiful, this is the only bucket I have found, and therefore is my choice...

"Here goes nothing," I mutter to myself and take a deep breath in anticipation and pull the bucket out.

You have no idea how bad I felt about that. Here I was just killing time, taking in my surroundings while Leyton consulted Hesor, and then I fry a friend. Now I am the officially the village murderer. I am a jerk. I swear it though, if there is a way to bring him back to life, I shall! Until then I am watching my back. Some sort of punishment is sure to be handed down here for my reckless use of laser beam eyes.

In the meantime can I call you Gazerbeam? I mean, when I run into you we are going to have a fight to the death on top of a German tank that's about to drive off a cliff, but until then we can pretend that you are a super-hero or something...

Razz

To be honest I feel like I have Loser Beam Eyes right now. I ruined a sweet setup of magic armor and laser eyes. I don't know that a super-hero would kill an innocent. I may have just crossed into villainy, at least until I can somehow revive Leyton. If his tiny horse will speak to me after what I've done then maybe he'll have an idea of what to do. If there is no apparent way to save Leyton, then I'll try the Hesor route.

Gazerbeam is freakin' hilarious! And Leyton, again, I am totally sorry about this little mishap. I'll figure it out, I promise you.

So much for using that whip for protection, huh?

Yeah, the whip might not cut it, I'll probably just have to close my eyes and hope you're dead when I open them. It's worked for me before...

I stole Gazerbeam from the Incredibles so I can't really take credit for anything other than having good taste... Razz

I imagine there will be a way to bring Leyton back. If not, I'm coming at you eyes wide shut...

It's okay Ifi, I forgive you... But, I need you to go to the plant pot and grab the life bead!!! It'll bring me back to life!!

SURPRISE ATTACK! You have been killed by the laser beam eyes of another traveler. Your body lies in front of the church. You have 24 hours to be revived, or you will respawn elsewhere with no items.

Oh no! I didn't know you could die! This is so exciting!

Here's the info on the wine bottle, which I'm just going to take with me.

Quote:
The bottle of wine is unopened. Its cork is firmly lodged in the top of the bottle, and the red wine within appears to be free of contamination.

The label on the bottle is white, with one word written in black ink in its center:

LEAVER


I'm going to investigate the silver spur next Smile

I think our PM is following our conversation... Shocked

Here's the reply I got, looks like we are about to rumble!

Quote:
You pull the toy bucket out of the box, and the box clicks shut once again. Still dizzy, you stumble backward and hold onto the bucket's plastic handle. Suddenly, the toy begins to glow and vibrate.

The room around you fades as to a ghostly white. The hard floor beneath you softens, and the smell of trees surrounds you. The fog around you slowly breaks and gives way to your new surroundings.

You are in front of a church, standing on the grass. You see another traveler standing at the door to the church and a third traveler lying on the ground.


That being said, someone is about to get my old pad! Line up fellas, there's an open house!

Quote:
To revive a fallen friend, laugh at their misfortune.

Me :I write in the notebook "What is your name and how can I help you?"

Quote:
You look at your hands and see that they are growing transparent. In fact, your entire body is beginning to disappear! If you make a turn today, perhaps you will re-materialize. If you do not make a turn, you may disappear from Transition Village altogether.

Quote:
ME :Wait, what? Didn't you get my last email?

I said I would like to write in the notebook "What is your name and how can I help you?"

I don't wanna vanish!

Quote:
You write the words "What is your name and how can I help you?" into the notebook. For a moment the letters remain on the page, but quickly they vanish and are gone.

Again, the notebook dips and moves as if someone else is writing on it. You see the message, "Your note has been delivered late. If you would like to send anything else, you may draw it."

Because you are behind, you may make another turn.


Quote:
ME : I would like to resend the last message, but add please.

I really suck at this game. I need some idea for a turn today. Thoughts?

Edit : I just noticed it said you can send an item. What do you guys think about sending the life bead?

Good idea

ME :I draw a detailed sketch of the life bead and add the note "What should I do with this?"

It seems the silver spurs can be a weapon...

Quote:
You place the wine in your pocket and pick up the silver spurs. Though there's little light in this room, they glint at you as if reflecting something you can't see. In fact, the reflection is so bright, it may be strong enough to blind someone at the right angle. You place it in your pocket.


Onward to the rest of the village!
