whoa, slow down there. remember what Aubrey said? four children, four endless fonts of will or something like that? it'd be beyond idiotic to destroy an unlimited power source. are you seriously trying to make her mad?

>Hey Aubrey, since now is the perfect time for it, what's your favorite animal and why? Spare no detail, tell us everything.

did you miss the part where 'It shall draw the In-Between's less savory inhabitants like ants to a sugar jar.'? also toying with her emotions like that is not cool. any further action and I will warn her about being manipulated by councilpersons

calm down. There is nothing to gain by fighting.

Seyhial, you cannot expect to throw her in a position where she cannot control herself. Fury will not aid her in the least.

If you wish to train her, that is a diffrent question. She should be trained, if we cannot aid her at all times. But anger is not the solution.

And of course the AUBREY enjoys violence. I enjoy violence. Everyone Enjoys Violence, New Management nowithstanding. but you do not need to be Angry to engage in Violence.

Too Few Skulls in her choice of Nudity Obsurers. Also, Honestly, did you even think out your plan? Make the AUBREY angry, have her Unleash her WILL to its maximum and then..? You would have a Very Powerful Being who was Very Angry because of you. Quite probably very angry AT you. That doesn't end well

AUBREY
"Sacrificed...?"

Aubrey's expression remains controlled, but you sense her WILL growing with every heartbeat.
Reality ripples—almost imperceptibly, but ripples all the same. Outside, the static crackles.

**Aubrey's emotions continue rising.**

The creature hesitates for a split-second.

"Rahasya; Master of the Colorless World."
"...Though, right now, I suppose the 'Colorless Isle' describes my territory better."

AUBREY
"Hm. So they're a 'boss monster', huh..."

RAHASYA
"What was that?"

AUBREY
"Don't mind me. I think aloud when I'm concentrating."

Deep breaths. Name of this master plz. Any other masters we should be aware of?

AUBREY
"So, this Master of the Blue World..."
"What's its name? What can you tell me about it?"

RAHASYA
"Very little—aside from that they're most unpleasant."
"The Colorless World was a grander thing before Biru grew sour towards me."

Aubrey considers this for a beat.

AUBREY
"Biru, huh? I'll keep that in mind. What about the Yellow World? And the Red World? Do those still exist?"

RAHASYA
"Not in the way as when you were last here, judging by your ignorance."

AUBREY
"But they're still around, and I can still visit them."

RAHASYA
"If you're so set on oblivion, yes."

"Your motives matter."

Aubrey feels this conversation is going nowhere, fast—

*THUMP*

A faint thud sounds from above. The In-Between shivers, just a little.

I guess that answers the question of whether or not this room has a roof.

Probably the care package, but might want to play it safe.

> Aubrey, what was that?

Let us hope it was the Care Package and not the MISTAKE...Honk Creature

> Switch Ada to GUARD mode. Be careful if you don't want to be killed like your friends.

If you have the time, tell Rahasya that you plan on rescuing someone from Biru. Given that Rahasya doesn't seem too fond of Biru, you might be able to receive some aid, become friends, or something along those lines.

>A thump? This could be a hostage situation, The time for diplomacy is over, time to play bad cop.
