Quote:
You reach a long barricade of thorns on the other side of the wall. They seem to be moving, pulsating with a life of their own and gift out a strange light. Flowers begin to bloom on the wall. When you press your hand against one, you are immediately assaulted with a strange vision (roll 1d6 to see what it is).

1. You see a skyscraper. At the very top there is a greenhouse. You feel yourself hovering above the greenhouse before diving right into it. There is a beautiful garden inside it, almost like a biodome. In the center of the biodome is what looks like some sort of chalice

2. You see hundreds of dead bodies, and a strange feeling washes over you. Apathy. You stand over the bodies and continue searching for at least one survivor. You hear yourself speak. "Are humans really so fragile?"

3. You fight against humans, but this time they are armed. Their weapons hurt. You are frustrated. They are eligible, but none of them will truly accept your wisdom. You kill many without ever feeling accepted. The feeling continues until the vision is over.

4. You fight against creatures of shadows, what you would consider your own breathren. They come in all shapes and sizes, large beasts and dragons, demons and even the undead. They refuse your knowledge. They are not compatible. They beg, negotiate and even fight against you to stop. You assimilate them for their treachery and refusal to serve.

5. You sleep in a long chamber of vines. Inside it are rows and rows of crystals. Each one is important to you. You tap against one, and it resonates, and you feel a strange sense of satisfaction. This is the power you have collected from those living and dead.

6. [ There is no actual image in this vision. Instead, you are assaulted with hundreds, thousands of conflicting thoughts, emotions, and ideals, all of them not your character's own. Your actual character's nose begins to bleed, and they fall to the ground, convulsing. They are unable to roll any other visions from the above if they reach this prompt and eventually pass out ].

Otherwise, you may continue rolling until you have fulfilled the 250 word requirement for it!

When the event is over, add +10 infection to your character's infection meter

Athena looked at the wall, face upturned. Her eyes flutter closed, and against her better judgment, a torn up, blood-stained hand reached out to caress the thorns, and--

Her eyes snapped open, because that was strange, and she was no longer alone. "Did you-- see that?" she asked, and there was an old woman there, unfamiliar, dressed peculiar. Perhaps she was not truly there at all.

No one would look twice at her and frankly, that's the way she likes it. She's got no time for anyone that isn't already in her life, friend or otherwise.

Granny Smith wandered. She no longer knew where she was. It was strange, having lived in this town for as long as she hand and now she was lost in her own town.

She didn't know what to make of it really.

there was a barricade and flowers and she touched one.

A moment later she opened her eyes and looked at the other women who was there. younger.

"I saw something. I'm not sure what's going on bit there is some serious Silent Hill s**t going down." she commented. She wasn't even sure what else to call it. This wasn't her memory.

It never stopped being sort of funny to hear older folks using that sort of language, or understand the references of popular culture.

"I don't-- we can't be that far from --" it was like the name of their home town was on the tip of her tongue, and yet, it continued to escape her, "the casino had to have been close too. So this hospital, it has to be near--"

But with the gesturing of her hands, Athena managed to p***k herself again, and under she went, eyelids fluttering closed, sucked into another vision, carried away on the winds of something green and alive, buried beneath the leylines of knowledge.

Athena surfaced with a gasp, clearing her head, taking a step backwards from the wall this time.

"Are you--" she managed, this time a little breathless, brown eyes wild. "Real? Or are you-- in my head?" The nurse had never sounded so pathetic, and yet, her fingers itched towards her knife. "Are you a part of this?"

"No way! I'm not going into a hospital! I don't want to die in a hospital." Even if she wasn't sick. She was not going in there. She was too young.

What was with these thorns? What did they do? She watched the women close her eyes.

Sense when was she not human? Why was she killing people? No this was once again not her own, but a monster.

Or maybe she was having a troll dream. But that was in World of Warcraft. not here.

No. "It's the thorns. Get away from them."

Athena stared past the older woman, into the fog, and from the fog peered Al's face, wearing a leer, his wedding ring glittering.

What did you think, girlie? That you were anything?

She turned away, eyes downcast. "Take the advice for yourself, old woman. You're gonna get caught again, if you're not careful--"

"Do you know what the cause is?" Granny smith felt angry. She didn't know why. She didn't understand. She merely knew that she was.

Her skin itched and nothing felt right.

"I'd rather fight it and have it come on my terms not it's. I want to meet death standing up. I may be old but I have fight left in me." she was trying to hang on to what little sanity she had left. "We should work together and get out."

Athena let out a tired bark of laughter.

"With your own people, maybe. You're not one of mine, and I barely trust my own."

She waved, and vanished back into the fog.
