[spoiler]So, you're a member, correct? Well, some shit happened in a quest. Cannon shit. Po's lost his eyesight permanently, so... Yeh. He's going to have to use his tendrils and other senses to see. Just act like he was like this before.[/spoiler] [u]As Po walks towards the door, his eyes turn milky white, and a peace of his clothing wraps around his eyes. Tendrils of black mist grope and feel, guiding him through the door.[/u] I believe I am ready to go. What is this beast you speak of? I must get to the top, and I should know what hunts me.
-
[spoiler]I am not a member. How do you become one? (I had a feeling I was missing something)[/spoiler] The monk guides you out into a common room, where you see other monks milling around. "You should stay. If you leave, I can assure you, the beast will kill you."
-
[spoiler]Do you have a character? If so, just make a post introducing them, and ask for a lieutenant in the spoiler. If not, I could ask them to let you in, because damn, you're pretty good at description and storyline RP. [/spoiler] [u]Po shakes his head.[/u] I must move on. I cannot force myself upon you for any longer, lest I choose to stay. There are people I must see, and that cannot wait.

The monk shakes his head sadly. "None who have faced the beast have lived to tell of it. You will die too, but if you wish, you are free to go." He pauses, glancing at you again, "yet you seem a capable warrior. If you slay the beast, we have a great treasure for you." He leads you to the main door of the monastery. "Good luck"

[u]Po nods, and walks out into the storm. His tendrils feel around him, guiding his movements.[/u]

-
[u]Po's form becomes misty as his body transforms half into mist, causing him to hover slightly. His tendril secure themselves on a ledge and he waits for the beast.[/u]

The monster goes dead silent, and over the storm, you can't tell where it is. An instant before impact, the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, and your tendrils coalesce, saving you from instant death. Unfortunately, you are instead swatted into the chasm waiting below. You fall for awhile, and then the sound of rushing water greets your ears. Then, with a thunderous smash, everything fades from your senses. Your last thought is that the water is strangely warm. ... When you come to, you are lying on a cot in a simple wooden room. This has happened two too many times today, you think.
-
[u]Po sits up groggily, rubbing his head as he sits up. His tendrils steady him as he stands and feel around the room, revealing his surroundings.[/u]
-
You hear the door open, as a... You guess a woman... Walks in. "Hello," she says, "you're awake!"
-
[u]Po stretches, turning his head in the direction of her voice.[/u] Hello there. Who might you be, and where am I?

Description of a contest, with a mysterious grand prize at the end. Then, the first test, a riddle appears. "Box without hinges, key, or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid."
-
"Box without hinges...golden treas-oh! An egg?" [i]He stares at the scroll as if expecting a response.[/i]
-
The scroll crumbles away, a golden egg with hinges and a clasp appearing in its place.
-
"Oh. Quite...rewarding." [i]Picking up the egg, the knight casually looks at it, and actually attempts to open it out of curiosity.[/i]
-
Opening up, there is a swirling green portal within, and scents of spring waft from within.
-
"Yolo." [i]Totally not expecting it to lead into an awful place, Ornstein jumps in randomly.[/i]
-
You find yourself in a sort of pavilion, overgrown with vines. Sunlight filters through. Another riddle echoes. "An eye in a blue face, saw an eye in a green face. 'That eye is like to this eye," said the first eye, 'but in a low place, not a high place.' What am I?"

There is apparently no service here.

"DAMNIT!"

In a stroke of luck, it loads, but only halfway. The answer is sun shining on-

*leyla looks at the strange scroll and doesn't think its a idea good to mess with it. So she starts to walk away*
-
nothing happens, but you see a helicopter with several soldiers preparing to take the scroll. Their intimidating armor is obviously meant to inspire fear, and you get the feeling that it is bad news if they get the scroll.
