There was no light in sight, and the halls began to turn and branch as they grew darker. Only the fact that he really didn't think it was a good idea to touch these mirrors kept Micah from reaching out to the wall to make sure he was going in a straight line.

Stamina: 15
HP: 18

Roll 1-25: It appears that you've lost your way, and the halls get darker and darker with every turn. Keep rolling, and subtract 3 Stamina because of how long it took to find your way.

Stamina: 15
HP: 18

Roll 71-100: You manage to make it through the hall of mirrors unscathed. Continue to Round 3.

"You're welcome," Horace said amicably and stood, dusting off his pants. He was glad Micah didn't appear to be hurt; he hadn't been so nervous on a mission in a long while. It was weird.

Retying his hair quickly, he stepped into the next room. The walls immediately began to shake, small rocks tumbling down from the eaves with each rumble. Horace stumbled flinging out a hand to steady himself. Three shards of mirror glowed suspiciously on the ground.

"I guess," he said, moving cautiously forward. "-the castle doesn't like you anyone, Micah. Should let it-" He stumbled again. "-feel you up a bit more."

Just then, the entire room shook dangerous and cracks snaked across the ceiling. "********' grab one and go!" Following his own advice, he dropped to his knees and quickly snatched at a shard. The edges of it felt like they should cut, and maybe they did, but he was too rushed to see it. Horace shoved the shard into his bag and rolled back up to his feet.

Micah looked startled. "I was just -- " thanking the castle for letting me get past ... Wow. That sounds crazy.

No crazy, Nova put in, you say please and it let you.

Uh huh. Might've just been a coincidence, Micah argued. Out loud, he said, "Um. You okay?"

He followed Horace into the next room, stopping sharply as the ground shook. "s**t," he said, and scowled at the comment about letting the castle feel him up some more, although part of the scowl was uneasiness. What if the castle really was objecting to not getting its thanks? Or thinking that it hadn't, anyway?

The room shook again, and Micah wasted no more time in wondering whether it was actually his fault that they were having a ******** earthquake or what. He grabbed one of the shining mirror shards, hissing a little as the sharp edges dug into his skin, and shoved it into his backpack. "If it wants to get grabby and dump us back outside again, I wouldn't mind!"
