Event Fourteen.





Roses bloom and cease to be,
But we shall the Christ-child see.





t's very, very cold. It's cold enough that you'll see your breath fog in the air before you, that goosebumps appear on your arms and legs and a chill goes up your spine. You're inside, in a huge palace with sweeping arches and rooms, but it's no real shelter from the cold -- it's just as cold inside as out.

There's a throne room, a kitchen, various rooms and even a dungeon to be explored -- and outside, a frigid, frozen garden, a lake that's naturally frozen over, and miles, and miles of snow as far as the eye can see.

But be careful while you explore. The snowflake soldiers are naturally dangerous, but even more dangerous than that...there's that creeping sensation of numbness going up your arm, a pang through your chest, and the slow, slow freezing from the inside out.

Try not to leave any of your friends behind, okay? Even if they might look a bit too uncannily like some of the statues hanging around for decoration when they're frozen over.

Yeah, I don't think we've ever run into a head bad guy before. There are lots of scary things out there, but we've never found a boss or anything...

[Thinking in video game or fairy tale logic, the big bad (which he's assuming is Mr. F) is conspicuously missing. Which they've known this whole time, of course, but it seems weird to have a palace with no Snow Queen.]

Ummm... I think it's just making sure the glass from the mirrors doesn't get into anyone's hearts or eyes. But the story was mostly about the boy who was already affected by that, and then a really pure little girl who saved him.

I never thought about it before, but doesn't that mean that it's only one person screwing with us?

[If they're using video game logic then Mr. F was the final boss. Where were the dungeon bosses?]

I think if the mirrors we had before were the ones, then it's too late to stop the pieces from getting into their eyes.

Maybe he's the leader and there are lots of other bad guys who obey him! Every good villain has other people do their dirty work while they sit in a big chair in a dark room and evilly pet a cat or something!

[The final boss doesn't show themselves until the end! ...But the Snow Queen should still be here.]

So there's nothing we can do once the mirrors are broken? But I haven't seen anyone turn evil yet!
queenofminiskirts: (neutral || are you sure?)

But they'd usually have some middle management types, right? One person can't possible control all these underlings. Even Pandra had senior members.

Pandra?

[He can't quite figure out if that's from another story or not, but continues after a moment of hesitation.]

You have a point... Maybe it's like how the bad guy sometimes has a smaller group of attendants that each control their own forces.
queenofminiskirts: (unsure || curious)

[personal profile] queenofminiskirts 2018-12-05 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
They're a criminal organization.

[That was probably named after for the myth.]

But we haven't seen any of these attendants...or even the bad guy. Except on the network. And there's the old woman in the forest but she's less a mid-boss and more like that weird NPC you keep running into.

Oh, so bad guys for sure.

[He nods sagely, like everything's fallen into place.]

She's like the old lady in games that sells you potions in the forest! Except she doesn't sell any potions, so maybe that isn't right.
queenofminiskirts: (other || =3=)

Something like that.

[She doesn't want to say they're bad...because it's more complicated than that and Mio and them were good kids...]

All she does is give our riddles and make people go blind!
