Sedna, Twog, Krayyven, Dulce, Beatrice, CoraciidaeAs Sedna extended her claws and sunk them into the bubble, a loud pop echoed throughout the maze as water splashed down upon the naga, dropping the tiny goldfish sized Daedulus onto the ground. He flipped and flopped around in the puddle like a tiny fish out of water before suddenly turning back into his normal self. Smiling, he gave Sedna an appreciative nod before handing her a plastic party hat with tiny fishes on it. He then snapped his fingers and vanished in a puff of confetti. And he didn’t even tell you how to get out!! But… at least you have a party hat? Twitchapher The 3rd Sedna has received a party hat edit! Arriving late to the party, Twog, Krayyven, Dulce and Beatrice meet up with Sedna and after getting a brief explanation, move off as a group back south and to the west. Walking down the long path of blue torches, they notice an opening to the north that looks as if something had busted through it. Its base is crumbled and destroyed, but a gentle breeze and a stirring pink light seems to radiate warmth. The path they were currently traveling continues forward west, a crushed mirror on the ground as if someone wants them to keep going. Which do they choose: A. Continue to follow the blue torches west to investigate the mirror. B. But north seems almost… peaceful. Head that way! EleoraAs Eleora pushed on down the blue torch lit path and its short winding passage, she stopped to study the mirror. The closer she looked into the mirror, the more she began to notice that it was whispering to her, from each individual shard that lay crushed before her. As she paused to catch her breath, the mirror shards began to vibrate, a sweet, savory voice emanating from them, luring her to come closer and closer. Finding the voice hard to resist, she reached out for them and suddenly they began to magnetize themselves to her hooves. While not painful, she’d find them impossible to remove and with each step she took, they caught the blue flames, reflecting various blue glitter lights all across the columns. Wolfs Heart Eleora has triggered a trap! She received a “mirror dust” edit to her hooves! (think like gemstones, but made up of bits of glass – Don’t worry, they don’t hurt, just sparkle!) Once she came to terms with her new found sparklefeet, Eleora finds herself with another set of options. Northeast she can hear a familiar voice calling out to her, just like the voice in the mirror shards that now adorn her hooves. To the west she can see something slightly ovular in shape that seems to be wiggling back in forth inside a pile of dried up vines and dust. Around it looks to be splatters of dried blood and bits of bone. Which does she choose: A: Continue northeast towards the hard to resist voice B: Bravely investigate whatever that wiggling oval object seems to be. Carnelia, Kulamani, HenryYou come to a dead end with faint whisperings of scenes past. In front of you, you see a little table with a neat tablecloth, a single plate, one fork slightly askew and a card nestled in the middle that says “Thank’s for the wishes, see you soon!” Feeling something recently just went down here, but having been late to the party, you conclude that there isn’t much left to do and backtrack the way you came. Coming up on two pathways, Where once was cheerful sounding fish to the north is now a bunch of water, soggy confetti and tracks that suggest someone may have come this way already. To your south is a hallway lit by blue torches and now extra sparkle! Which do you choose: A: Party in the water and head north despite the tracks leading away B: Continue down the sparkly blue lit pathway. Rosewater, AsureaChoosing to ignore the crack and bodies, Rosewater and Asurea push forward towards the gentle breeze. The closer they get to the pink light, the warmer they feel, as if being wrapped in freshly cleaned blankets scented like roses. Unable to help but smile, they hear a gentle, loving voice reach out them to draw them into the pink light. “Well done my children.” It says, welcoming and pleased. A gentle breeze twirls around them and in a brilliant flash of pink, Rosewater and Asurea disappear from the maze. MiddyGlow Rosewater and Asurea have completed the maze! GG!

Twog and krayyven head toward peace, because good ess.
Twog followed the path till they came to a snake and some others. And he stared at the snek jabbing a decorative hat like a it was a weapon. Well, now he'd seen everything. Blinking a bit, he turned back toward Krayyven and asked "She's knows that's not what they're for, roght?" He asked, puzzled. Another fork in the road cropped up and he gave an exasperated sigh. 'Jesus. I know a maze is supposed to be all mazes, but can't we ever find a straight way? Left or right?" He asked, looking down each. "I mean, one has cool blue torches so you can see. The other has..." he turned the other way. "Well, the other has nothing. That's reassuring." He said, pointing down the peaceful road. "Which one?"
If he was honest, the peaceful path seemed nice. After everything they'd been through, and all the running, a little peace might be nice. Then again, the blue path had a shiney at the end. And he knew how birds liked shiney.

(Carnelian and Kulamani choose B!)
Carnelian smiled a bit in what she hoped was a reassuring way. She really did hope that his niece was safe. Whatever this place was...well, it definitely wasn't safe.
When he chose the silent path, Carnelian agreed. "Sounds good. It could be anything making that noise." She thought that perhaps there could be something down the silent path that wanted to lure them down that way, but she did not voice this opinion and just followed her date down the silent path.
"Great, a dead end," she said with a huff when they reached the end of their chosen path. "Looks like someone had a party here and we missed it. At least they got to eat," she grumbled.
With a sigh, she turned toward Kulamani. "Guess it's time to turn back around." She headed back the way they came, but their path choices looked a bit more grim. Well, the one did anyway. The fish might have been interesting, but it was just soggy confetti now.
"Wanna try the blue fire path?" she asked him. It was sparkly and she couldn't resist the sparkle. Not that she would say that out loud. Ever. Not for a million sugary treats.

Eleora chooses B
What was that voice? Was there something inside the mirror? But how would that happen? So far little in this maze had made sense, but what exactly had made sense in Eleora's life so far?
Then the glass she had been looking at was now on her. She jumped back in surprise, that wasn't enough to shake them off. She was hesitant to touch them, but they were already touching her feet, so she carefully tried to scrape them off. Nope. "Oh dear..." The female sighed.
And that wasn't the end of it, because now she was at another decision point. The voice calling her was tempting, but she recognized it as the voice that had drawn her to the mirror... and well, now look at her. In the other direction though... Eleora shivered.
She went back and forth for a while, but ultimately decided that following a voice was a bad idea... and maybe the blood and bone were old, she had seen a lot of skeletons and old weapons so far.

EleoraAs Eleora neared the strange mound, no obvious dangers presented themselves. Not yet. The vines and debris could be cleared with a scuff of her (now sparkly) hooves, revealing an oval egg of considerable size. There's a slight movement and curiosity leads her to pick up the strange egg. The egg hisses at her. Oh dear... Wolfs Heart Eleora has found...a naga egg?!? Uh oh. SednaSedna's path lead her towards a broken mirror on the ground. In care not to slice herself on the shards, she circled around, which left her back to a shadowy column. Silently, a stone cherub in comically oversized armor slid into view just long enough to fire an arrow from its very real bow. Twitchapher the 3rd Oh no, Sedna has triggered a booby trap! She's been hit by one of Dysnomia's Anarchy arrows and is now under its effects! DOWN WITH ORDER! EVERYONE IN THE MAZETired and sore feet prod against the ground. How long have they been here? How were the others fairing? Time was so weird in the maze that it made it difficult to gauge. Some just went along with it, not stopping to think unless it makes them go mad. Others… well. Soon a purple mist began to slink its way around the Pae’s feet. They didn’t notice it at first until the mist turned into hands and grabbed them, pulling their legs out from under them and hanging them upside down. Cackling rang out around them, the mist growing stronger until a dark silhouette could be seen within it. Red eyes blinked back and a dancing smile appeared, “Have fun, my pet? How about we make you more… comfortable.” Multiple silhouettes joined at the sides and began to laugh along. The mist gobbles them up with frightening sounds of slurping. In a blink they find themselves each in their own individual cage hanging from a dark ceiling… Have they really been tossed into bird cages!? Is that how she sees them? Some of you see others around you whom you might have not seen in awhile. You call out to one another trying to find a way out. A spotlight appears below you over a grand throne that has taken on the themes of the maze. Its built with dark panels that have dancing shadows within, two columns of dark marble sit to either side of it with purple flames flicking above, and rose vines cover it except for the seat where the same bouncy material from the Chaos maze covers it in order to give its sitter perfect comfort. And who else should step out of the shadows to sit upon it than Eris herself. She’s swapped out her Venus garb for something more appropriate to herself. She sits herself down and smirks up at them, seeming to take a moment to look each and every one of them in the eye, “This is much better don’t you think, my pet?” she coos at them. THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN RESCUEDHold tight! Your grand entrance is coming! Please do not post any further in here! Since your Pae have been moved from the maze the story will now be taken to a new thread [here]. Post your reactions there, please. Also, all of your arrow or maze effects are still active!
