By the time she was nearing the top, Madeline had abandoned all thoughts of viciously brutal ways to due away with the Voice, and was instead contemplating the hypothetical possibilities of jumping out of the window from this height. Did the laws of physics even work correctly in this place? If she fell, would she even die a second time?
Madeline chewed her lip, mulling this over as she neared the last of the steps to the next floor.
She wasn't in any particular race to find out.

Seeing the end in sight, the fragment frowned and trotted the last few steps with some difficulty - after all, skin-tight dresses weren't necessarily made for jogging long-winding staircases to nowhere in. At least not that she knew of.
Reaching the top, Madeline panted, and seriously considered accosting the next person that came up for their shirt and shoes.

"You dare take the powers of the others, when I created you, gave you purposed, and promised you a Kingdom. You dare raise your punitive claws against me? Even reforged you will never be on the same level that I am." the words echoed in Gilly's ears. She looked around for a moment before realizing it was the Voice again. She wasn't sure if the Voice wanted a response. But she gave it one none the less. "I'm not here to take you down, or take your power, I just want people to be happy again. I don't want to be on your level Voice, I just want to be on mine. Whoever or wherever that really is." Even though the words left her lips without a sound, she felt like the Voice could hear them if it wanted to.

Even reforged you will never be on the same level that I am.He wasn't even listening anymore. Whatever The Voice was talking about, it was clearly not directed at him. Westus had no interest in any kingdoms, not anymore, and he didn't have claws. All he wanted to do was reach the top and be set free. Eyes on his feet, the fragment didn't notice the approaching door until he had almost smacked into it. All I ever wanted was to find the True King, and yet, the others still stand in my way. I have given them no harm, no—"Yeah, yeah," Westus said, the last words he would probably ever speak sucked into the void as he passed through the door.

[[Enter: Uluiru!]] Making his way toward the first floor--and oh...the stairs. Lots, and lots of stairs, it looked like, were waiting for him. But what was this about giving up one's hearing? Stepping cautiously through the doorway, Uluiru froze. He couldn't hear...anything. Not his own heartbeat, or the soft thuds of anyone's feet on the stairwell...nothing. It was both unnerving, and made one feel somewhat...off-balance. But, it wasn't painful, nor was it really...harming him, so he started up the stairs.

Already, he could tell that this was going to be a long walk. He still found it so odd to not be able to hear a thing, so he focused on counting in his head, as he ascended each step. He froze, as the voice whispered in his head, sounding louder than it may have otherwise, in light of the complete silence that otherwise blanketed the staircase. ...But what did it mean, even? None of what it was saying, with that angry tone, made any sense. Giving himself a small shake, Uluiru pressed onward--he'd try to decipher it later.

Gilly breathed out, and continued on. She felt, a little uneasy at how angry the Voice seemed. Gilly continued until she saw the exit, she pushed open the doors and started to step through when the Voice spoke again. "All I ever wanted was to find the True King, and get, the others still stand in my way. I have given them no harm, no trouble, I have waited this long, and my prize is to be betrayed by everything I embrace, again." These words seemed much sadder to Gilly the tone was annoyed, but it seemed like because of a long standing pain. She felt sad for the Voice. She didn't understand what was being said, but she could tell this Voice was hurt. Maybe it was the one that needed to be saved. Gilly pressed on. [exit to floor 2]

Pressing onward, Ulu grimaced--he hadn't walked up this many stairs since...well, in a very, very long time. And after this, I suspect I'll be taking the elevator when it's an option for quite some time...Surely, he had to be getting close, at least?!

He really didn't care if he never saw another stair again. And he had no idea how much farther he had to go. Taking a second to catch his breath, he sighed (soundlessly, of course), then pressed onward. The Voice echoed in his head as he finally hit the top stair, lungs bellowing. He had no stamina, and those stairs had been the worst to get up. No longer climbing, he tried to make sense of the new, insidious whispers. The True King remark rang true with what he'd seen, and had known all along, fair enough--but what was all of that about betrayal, and others standing in its way? It made no sense. But, he was through this part of the tower, fortunately.

Truly, she did not expect when it said you had to sacrifice your hearing that it would really do so, but . . . it was almost a too good to be true situation.
She was stunned - a fear rolling over her as she stared up the nearly endless flights, a fear that - being completely alone, she allowed to show through. She was an Artisan - a woman of the music and voice. How could she live like this.
The silence was deafening, and it made her terrified - but, not enough to stop.
Sighing out loud - maybe louder than she was used to, she slowly started her ascension, one step at a time, keeping her eye on the prize, whatever it may be.OOC  Current HP remaining: 57/60 Stairs Done: 29/100 Rank: Queen Kingdom ability: Unused Character kingdom: Edric (Regalia) Character's Miasma Colour: Gold Character description: IT'S A SKETCH BUT HAHAHHA

Etzer started climbing the steps, he breathed out in a huff, surprised that he couldn't actually hear anything.
Well, that wasn't really a problem to him. There was so much angry clamoring in his head that he didn't want to hear anyone else.Quote:  Name: Etzer

The steps were tedious, but Etzer was determined to get to the top. He wanted answers. He wanted to see his King.
He wanted to see Xiu.
Perhaps with her, there would lie answers. Maybe she could soothe his raging soul.

He was getting frustrated again. The stairs seemed never ending, but his determination overrode anything else he may have been feeling.
His legs ached, and his body heaved, but he was determined to make it to the top.

Taking a short break for a moment, Etzer leaned against the wall, glad that he hadn't seen anyone of yet.
He couldn't rest for long, and decided to continue as fast as he could.
No pain, no gain. Everything he worked for throughout his life...
False.
The Voice spoke.
"You dare take the powers of the others, when I created you, gave you purposed, and promised you a Kingdom. You dare raise your punitive claws against me? Even reforged you will never be on the same level that I am."
Etzer let a hiss out, even though it had no sound. He was a fragment, a mere copy of what he thought he was. It made him angry. It was unfair.
He gritted his teeth, and moved onward.

He was making good progress.
His chest clenched up, but he ignored it. He had to go faster.
Faster.
Faster wasn't fast enough.
