THE HIGHLANDER'S TOMB (TEAM FORUM RPG)

After hearing Razuna's story, I say:

"Wow, that's actually impressive! You know, that you're willing to do this for your sister... I would never have thought that's the reason why you came here for..."

And after Razuna and Bazyli's findings and Kairy's failed attempt to open the door, I walk to Kairy and I tell to her:

"Kairy, I'm starting to think that those chests hold the key to get out of this room..."

P.S. : YES! MORE PAGEBREAKS FOR ME!!!

Instead of editing the post on the other page (Convenience) I'm going to post the picture of the wall markings here.

Some other time. ;_;

Heya, I'm back!
What happened to seiromem's avatar? Oh well, a jolly rude (Noct)owl, so you won't hear me complain.

I'm kind of curious what exactly is the matter with Razuna's sister (though I can imagine a few things), but Kairy probably didn't really pay attention to his story. Sorry, JJJ.

---------------

Okay, I don't think I'll be able to pick that kind of lock. It would be easier to destroy the entire door instead. No luck.
A bit frustrated by that, I react to Zuko's remark by simply turning towards him and looking at him sarcastically. "Really? I thought we were supposed to eat the door in order to move on."

I then ask the rest of the group: "All right. Did you found out anything useful? I don't like this room and there's still the possibility that giant monster is still coming after us. What did you call it again, Shivad?"

Having said that, I hand everyone an MREpper and ask Wes for some water. It's been a long time since we last had the chance to eat and drink something.
After Kairy walked towards the group, feeling quite offended by Kairy's remark at me, I could only say in a low voice:

"You were the one who wanted us to stay away from the chests..."
There must be some way to avoid accidental double posts...
Water for Kairy! And for anyone else who wants some. I think I'll have a sip as well after I eat that MRE Pepper.

"So, Razuna, Bazyli, notice anything interesting about this room while you two were looking around?

And, Shivad, if you could, would you explain a bit more about this 'Anathema'?" (is it just me or am I pretty much just saying what Kairy's already said)
"I think I should do it too. It's been a while since I ate or drank anything..."

I drink some water from my Filled Canteen and I eat one of my MREppers.
Gourd, are you there? Because if you're there, I can't hear you!
Drink some water and enjoy my MREpper! "Hm... well there are different colored locks on the chests. Perhaps this is another elemental puzzle though I'm not too good at those. Perhaps we have to use two different keys in a row to unlock a certain chest. I'm not sure which chest." I say in response to Kairy and Wes.

Alright myup you're all eating MREppers and drinking water. Hurray!

So, anything ELSE you guys wanna do?
"Eh? More colors and elements? Oh dear, I should hope this doesn't have to do with elements, the last time we dealt with such a puzzle, things didn't go terribly well.

...Well, I suppose there isn't much else to do but try the keys out? Let's go with what Zuko's said." oooor maybe not

Yeah, you can try and use the keys. Everyone's already inspected them as much as possible. Except this one tiny tidbit I've come up with that is far to small to make an action out of it;
"With Bazyli's good MAGI, he sense the LACK of any kind of elements inside the keys"

There we go, that's everything you can inspect!
"I don't know if this chests are linked to elements. Besides, there are 6 chests and there are only 3 visible keys, so unless we can find the other three keys, I think we should try now to use the colored keys in their respective chests."

I was being slow with my actions on purpose, because I wanted to wait for you to post that image you talked about earlier, seiromem. But whatever, here goes.

Also, I feel bad for being rude to Zuko all the time. I'm so sorry, Ilan!

---------------

"No, wait, Zuko. That just seems too simple. Isn't it more likely we have to use the keys on the locks with the colour of the opposing element? At least, if I had designed this room, I would have done that rather than make it as easy as using the same colours..."

Ugh, I don't know. I take a closer look at the materials the chests, locks and keys are made of. Would it be possible to just pick some of the locks or break the chests open?

Chests be made of wood with their lock colors being some type of metal or jewel, same as the keys. You can sure as hell try to break 'em open or pick 'em.

Also, here's the markings!

"No, I don't think this has anything to do with elements. Perhaps I felt no magi in this room because the keys have nothing to do with the elements."

Oof... Okay, those markings are tricky to read. I'll just write down the letters I think I can decipher:

"Black is d?, muddl?
Hold the stone, ?ul?i??
their contents vary, harmless"

I'm not at all sure about the word "harmless", though, because it is usually written with two "s". This was just a wild guess.
What do you think it says?

If we can't figure out what the markings mean and nobody has a better idea, I'll just try to pick the locks (starting with the red one).
"You know, this starts to remind me of something that I studied in the school in Hell. It was about the combinations of colours, the keys we have are coloured yellow, red and blue, which are the primary colours. And three of the chests here are coloured purple, green and orange, which are results of the combinations of the primary colours. And if I had to assume, I'll say that the word "black" makes reference to the result of the combination of all colours... or it was the substraction of all colours? I don't know, I was kinda sleepy in that moment... It's just an assumption, but without knowing what the rest of the markings say, I can't say for sure if my assumption is true."

P.S. : It's okay, NeverSilent. But, just out of curiosity: Are you sure that Kairy is not a Tsundere character?
Oof...sorry, here I am!

After drinking some water and eating a MREpper,
I respond to Zuko's theory with:

"That actually sounds like a plausible idea, and it came out of the mind
of a lesser demon like yourself."

I direct my sight to both Fureira and Shivad and ask:

"Do any of you know what this blue vial does?"

Hey! How dare you, JJJ7?! I'm the only one allowed to be mean to Zuko!

----------------

"Hm. You know, that does make sense, Zuko. So what you mean is we can open, say, the green lock by using..." at which point I have to pause and think for a while.
"...the red key, right? Sounds as good a plan as any."


P.S.: I honestly couldn't say, Ilan. I don't watch anime or read manga, and I know absolutely nothing about any of those tropes. I just have a certain idea of Kairy's personality in mind and try to describe her reactions based on it.
So, I guess my answer is... um, maybe?
