You walk around the woods until you hit a bunch of lily pads. A voice whispers to you from underneath them.
"If you can find the secret exit, I promise lots and lots of treasure! Climb the lily pads to find out!"
You can't find the source of the voice, but you know one thing for sure. Those lily pads are way too small. They must not be the right ones.

You keep on walking and it you come to a fork in the path.
OOC
Roll 1d6. If odd, you head left. If even, you head right. RP out this post then continue. Select the correct one from what you rolled in your dice.
HEADING LEFT:
If you head left you end up at a very large cluster of grass. You walk and walk and walk and the grass is way, way taller than you. There is no way you can see which direction to go. You are too small.
OOC
You have two mushrooms so choose which one to eat!
Eating the large mushroom: Makes the grass normal sized again! You can see! Progress onwards. Eating the medium mushroom: This does absolutely nothing! IF you are stuck at this point, head back to the first post. Eating the small mushroom: This does absolutely nothing! IF you are stuck at this point, head back to the first post.
Otherwise, RP your posts and continue.
HEADING RIGHT
You proceed forward until you hit a giant cluster of bluebells. You can see something beyond the bluebells but you are too large. You must make yourself smaller!
OOC
Two mushrooms left. If your mushroom is not the right one, go back to start and try again!
Eating the large mushroom: Nothing happens. You spend a lot of time wandering around until you get lost again (go back to start). Eating the medium mushroom: You are normal sized again but this does nothing to help you. You spend a lot of time wandering around until you get lost again (go back to start). Eating the small mushroom: You are small sized. You get on top of the flowers and are able to scope out your vantage point from here. Continue onwards to next post

At last you find a small opening! There's a stack of lily pads that are right at the very exit but you need to be normal sized to climb them.
OOC
You have one mushroom left. If your mushroom is not the right one, go back to start and try again!
Eating the large mushroom: Nothing happens. You spend a lot of time wandering around until you get lost again (go back to start). Eating the medium mushroom: You are normal sized again! Now you can climb to the exit Eating the small mushroom: You are too small to climb onto these lily pads.
Otherwise if your mushroom is the right one read below for your REWARD
Quest Complete Reward: Treasure trove found! As you step inside, a chest pops open! You open it right up because that's pretty much what you do with treasure chests in games.
NotAllan wandered around the woods absolutely uselessly. She knew that in games like this, you had to just wander until you found a quest.
And find a quest she did!
"If you can find the secret exit, I promise lots and lots of treasure! Climb the lily pads to find out!"
Sounded easy enough. She walked over the lily pads, but nothing happened. Nothing except crushed lilypads and an awkward feeling that she was doing something wrong.
"Well. I'm on them." Still nothing.

Suspicious voice promising her treasure? Under any other circumstance, Nightbloom would immediately balk at the rather creepy offer, but this place had proven itself to be pretty unusual in how things worked. Ultimately, she decided that there seemed to be little reason to deny the possibility of finding any more treasure, especially considering the fact that the previous loot she had gotten had seemed quite useful.
But what was this about lilypads? The voice wanted her to step on them...? Turning to look at said lilypads, Nightbloom was a little surprised to find that someone was already there--she must have missed the other girl's presence while pondering over the pros and cons of listening to a mysterious voice's request--and already standing on the plants.
...And nothing was happening.
"Well that's odd," She said aloud, lips curving into a frown, "I wonder what we're suppose to do--ah. Do you think these will help?"
Moving over to stand by the nearby and equally as suspicious mushrooms, she took in the bold "EAT ME" atop their caps before stooping down to pluck one small mushroom and one medium one. "Think these will help, uh...miss...NotAllan?"

sweetm00n walked through the woods, admiring her lovely new levels floating above her head. She almost walked right past the lilly pads before hearing the whisper, and stopping to look. "The pads...?" Gingerly lifting one foot up, she hesitated and decided to not risk crushing the hidden speaker. "I'll try...?" She hesitantly accepted the quest and suddenly noticed the mushrooms sprouting around. It was easy enough to put two and two together, and after selecting the large and medium mushrooms, she straightened up and continued her walk in the forest. Hopefully, she'd run into more hints soon.

"EH?" she called, turning to see what player had approached her. Nightbloom- pretty name. "Hey there Nightbloom. You doin' the quests too? What level are ya?"
She looked at the mushrooms the girl was pointing to. Take two and carry on- alright easy enough. "Yeah, I think so. Let's take a few." NotAllan reached down and grabbed a small and medium sized mushroom.
NotAllan looked to Nightbloom. "We'll do it together, yeah?"

Glancing over her shoulder at the two other characters who had stopped to chat, sweetm00n began to walk faster. She'd get to the loot first! Well that was the idea until she ran headfirst into some very tall grass indeed. Bouncing on tiptoes and frowning, she eventually shoved the large mushroom into her face. Eat me? Fine. Let's see what - her train of thought was nicely derailed as she shot up in size, whacking her head a few times on low-hanging tree branches. On the upside (ha) she could now see! Getting down on all fours, she shuffled forwards.

Eying the two mushrooms she had picked up with a wary eye, Nightbloom gave a little shake of her head before turning her attention back to her new acquaintance. Offering the other girl a smile, a small, nervous laugh escaped her lips. "Level 4! And ah--I'd love to try figuring this out together! Honestly, I'm a little...apprehensive about this whole thing, but...here goes!"
Trailing off with another laugh, she approached the lilypads again. After nervously nibbling at one of the ones in her hand to shrink herself down (something that wasn't really pleasant, but certainly not the worst she had been though), she stepped onto the pad and glanced over her should to make sure that NotAllan was still there.
"Okay, let's see. So we're looking for a secret path or something...?" Sounding rather uncertain, she started forward, pausing upon reaching a fork in the road. Left or right, left or right...
Deciding to go with the former, Nightbloom continued onwards, eventually reaching some long blades of grass. Although she assumed that she could make her way through, she was quickly overwhelmed by the fact that she couldn't see anything. Uncertain as to whether NotAllan was still even following her, she called out that she had to head back.

NotAllan followed Nightbloom's lead, shrinking herself down then trailing to the tall grass.
She saw a massive butterfly and went to chase it, losing Nightbloom in the sheer size of the blades of grass. Seeing as she couldn't find her way out, she tried chomping on one of her mushrooms, but nothing happened.
Disheartened and annoyed, she headed back to the glad to find Nightbloom where they'd started. "No luck for you either?"

Finally arriving at the lillypads, sweetm00n delicately gulped the now teeny normal-sized mushroom that remained, dropping back down to her normal height. With just a little bit of smugness, she strode up to the top, and turned around to see if the others she had spotted would be arriving anytime soon. Eventually she sat down and crossed her arms. What was the point in winning if there was no one there to see you? Damn.

Relieved to see NotAllan return back to the start unscathed, Nightbloom shook her head with a wry smile. "No. I got horribly lost, but I'm glad that we both managed to make it back somehow. I guess we took a wrong turn then?"
Well, no matter. She still had the small mushroom and the medium mushroom in her possession, and intended on giving this another go of finding the correct path this time.
"Up for round two?"

NotAllan nodded, agreeing with little Nightbloom's way of thinking. "Must have. We can try again though."
She too picked up a small and medium mushroom, giving the small Cheshire a look of determination. "A gryphon and a cheshire hafta solve it eventually, right?"

"Yes," She chirped, feeling quite happy to have met such a positive companion, "I'm sure we can figure it out!" Having company definitely made this place seem a little less creepy, that much was for sure.
This time, Nightbloom ended up turning right, finding herself at some flowers. Taking a moment to admire them, she frowned when she realized that she didn't know where to move on from here. Maybe...she could climb up on top of one of the flowers? But ah, she was too big, and--
--Oh, the mushrooms! Pulling out the small one, she took a bite, shrinking down even further than she had previously. Now at the perfect size, she climbed up onto one of the blossoms and peered out over the ground.
"NotAllan!" The ghoul called down for her companion, "I think I know which way to go!"

NotAllan tottered after Nightbloom, this time staying very closer to her. NotAllan was starting to get tired of lily pads and didn't want to stay here long.
When Nightbloom called out, she perked up and looked at the white-haired girl. "Yeah but how-" Then the girl chomped on her mushroom and grew very small. "Oh that's smart!"
NotAllan ate her mushroom and grew small, small enough to traverse the pretty bluebell field. "Wow ... pretty, huh?"
