Welcome to Gaia! ::

There was a staircase to her left, but Ying didn't bother going up it.

She'd had enough of stairs today, thank you very much.

Sun turned away from the Throne, and stumbled off into the dark. Was there anything else here?

She nearly tripped over something. Her knees encountered the sharp edge of a staircase, and Sun cried out in pain, though she couldn't hear or be heard. Stairs. Her nemesis. Stubbornly, she climbed them, leg muscles protesting.

There was nothing at the top. Too bad the Throne was so heavy. She would've loved to drag it up here, and push it back down.

Sun slowly climbed back down, and headed in a different direction.

Momo descended the stairs as carefully as she could. She tripped once but managed to catch herself before she caused any serious harm. Once she made it back to flat floor, Moriko began to feel her way around until she bumped into a large chunk of metal. Carefully, she began to run her hands over the metal. From what she could make out, it appeared to be in the shape of a chair. Perhaps it was a throne? As she ran her hands over it she could feel ridges, as if something was carved into the metal. Words perhaps?

Moriko eased her hands over the grooves in the metal, trying to 'read' them as best as she could. 'Call My True Name' It said. True name? What was it's name? Moriko pondered for a few minutes racking her brain for anything she could come up with. She had never been good at riddles or any sort of guessing games but she at least had to try. Yet how could she? She was unable to talk. There must be a way to get a name across somehow... She pondered for a moment and then remembered the fountain that she had encountered. If she could find it again she might be able to write out something on the stone. Though she was still unsure of what the name was.

Carefully she moved once more, hoping to find the pillar with the liquid.

[Entering]

Oh for the love of... now they were blind too? Imryn just shook her head as The Voice took away her sight upon entering. There was nothing left to do now. If they could not see, hear or speak, how were they supposed to be able to navigate or do anything?

Blindly, she began to stumble around the room, wincing a bit when her legs connected with something solid, tripping forward into it. Wet too. Lovely. Let's just hope that it was really water and nothing disgusting.

Sun stumbled around until her hands hit a table. Hand on the solid surface, she circled it, until her other hand hit... paper? Further investigation revealed a book. Wonderful. If only she could see to read. She tried to move the book, but it seemed to be as heavy as the Throne.

She decided to leave it be for now, and see if there was anything else in here.

She had not been expecting the attack, a surprised gasp escaping her lips as the sword plunged into her side. Grimacing in pain, she jerked herself backwards, lifting a hand and pressing it over her wound. Slowly, her tensed shoulders began to relax at the chilling sensation, the throbbing pain slowly dulling. "Have you forgotten? I was in the exact same position as you are now. Most of my life--no, my existence has been serving the Voice." Looking between the Green and Gold kings, she shook her head with a sigh.

"Unfortunately, I doubt that you would believe the truth even if I told it to you--you need to see it for yourself to understand, especially if you are in the same predicament as I am. The same one that I assume Wilson has found himself in as well."

She glanced over briefly to the other Silver King, lifting her brows at him questioningly. Did he have another self to save as well? Judging by what Shun, Gene, and Riley had told her, it seemed like she was not the only one with a slumbering real self.

Moriko got up to try to move away from the throne and somehow managed to slip and fall right back in front of it. Grumbling, she got up and tried again.

[OOC: Srsyl WTF Momo???]

This time momo managed to stand up without falling into the throne. Carefully, she moved away from it and stumbled around in the dark blindly for a few moments. Yet somehow she ended up right back in front of it again.

Once again losing patience, she kicked the thing in anger. She wondered if it would offend the Voice. The thought amused her for a few moments and she kicked it a few more times just in case.
