The Tower

Grab the Moon Card and Coffee.



Before you climb any higher, you decide to go back to the first floor and get some things you might need. You put the Coffee in your Alchemy Bag, and place the card in your pocket with the other one.

Keep going upstairs.



As you begrudgingly climb the stairwell, you hear the sound of footsteps echoing as someone descends from the floor above. The Ronin meets you at the third floor.



R: Ah, Alchemist, there you are.
A: Ronin... Were you looking for me?
R: Yes.
R: Well, no.
R: Barbarian is looking for you.
R: Barbarian asked me to send you up to the eighth floor if I ran into you.
A: E-eighth? That's a lot of stairs... How many floors are in this tower?
R: Ten.
R: No, a basement too, so eleven.
A: I don't know if I can even make it that far...
A: See you later I guess.
R: Wait.
R: Are you headed into that room?
A: Ah, yeah, I figured I'd check things out on my way up.
R: This room isn't supposed to be used, apparently.
R: It is not lit, so be careful.
A: O-oh. Okay. I'll just take a look anyway.

Next.



Just as Ronin said, this room is filled with inky darkness. You can't make anything out.



a: Hey, spirit?
?: Whispering is a step up, but you don't have to worry about keepin your voice down in here.
A: Can you see in the dark?
?: Actually, supernatural vision is one of the few abilities I do posses...
?: But while I'm inhabiting someone's body, my powers are transferred to the body's owner.
A: Wait, so I can see in the dark?
?: Not just that, but you have the ability to see things that are normally invisible.
A: Like magic stuff?
?: More specifically, unnatural stuff. Things not of this world.
?: That said, we aren't very attuned right now. Looks like it's too dark.
?: Over time, our spiritual attunement will improve, and you'll be a pro at lookin at things.
A: Hmm okay. I'll try coming back later.
A: Or, you know. With a light.

Continue upstairs.



Leaving the dark room for now, you climb to the fourth floor and enter this floor's room. Gunslinger and Knight are chatting here with amused smiles. Looks like someone was playing a card game recently. Oh, and there's a closed door to the south.

Next.





?: Related to what I was just sayin.
?: About being able to see things that you can't normally.
?: I get the feeling this is a good place to try it out.
?: There's somethin unnatural in this room.
?: Try focusing your eyes on things around the room. You'll probably know when you see it.
