[ The grand dining room ]: A beautiful table spans the center of the room, marble tiling mostly in tact. It seems almost surreal to see such a normal human, albeit luxurious, area in the center of this all. There is food on the table, but it is long rotting. It seems someone has set aside some earl grey tea as well.

(Roll 1d4 if you wish to look around - OPTIONAL - and match your dice roll to the results below. You can roll as much as you'd like!)

1: You see the ripped page of a picture book and it reads as the following:

Page 1: There once was a serpent and it was very lonely. "Why was I created?", the serpent asked itself. "For what reason do I exist?" It had no understanding of beginning nor end, and because of it it developed a terrible hunger. It ate the sun and moon and everything in the sky.

2: You see the ripped page of a picture book and it reads as the following:

Page 2: Eventually the gods took notice of this serpent and sliced it into thousands of pieces. It did not die, but simply writhed as every part of it was released. As time passed, all the pieces eventually gathered together again, but where it was severed there would be thick wounds, forever bleeding green.

3. You see the ripped page of a picture book and it reads as the following:

Page 3: Consumed by hunger again, the serpent wandered the world. Whatever it ate would immediately come out of its gashed sides. The oceans and lands ran thick with green, and the humans took pity on the serpent, offering eventually to fill its wounds with leaves and branches.

4. You see the ripped page of a picture book and it reads as the following:

Page 4: The serpent was thankful, and blessed upon those few humans its gift of knowledge and the hunger for the beginning and the end. At last, having returned to it's original glory, it parted upon them one final knowledge, when it is time to accept their own end for another beginning. It was then that the serpent consumed itself, and while it's shape was that of a serpent, it's form was that of a concept. From the concept, there was nothing left but the leaves and branches, which began new life of its own.

Not seeing anyone he really knew, or rather... sensing... Mia wandered out of the main central room and found himself before a beautiful marble tiled table that spanned the center of it. It was luxurious, and seemed strangely human for a place like this... not to mention there was a lavish amount of food still on the table.

Most of it was rotting.

Glancing over the table, Mia saw that someone had set aside a cup of tea, and he had to compliment the good taste that someone had.

He also noticed sitting next to the cup of tea a ripped page of what looked to be out of a picture book, as if there had been a child sitting at the table, reading quietly to themselves. He slid over and picked it up, reading the particular page with a slight bit of interest.

The top of the page showed a serpent that looked gracious and happy, with a few number of humans below it with their arms raised in what looked to be cheer.

The serpent was thankful, and blessed upon those few humans its gift of knowledge and the hunger for the beginning and the end.

Below, in the middle of the page, it showed the snake glowing, an almost beam-like gaze on the people as it looked to be transferring some sort of power upon them.

At last, having returned to it's original glory, it parted upon them one final knowledge, when it is time to accept their own end for another beginning.

The last bit of the page showed the serpent biting its own tail, and behind it grew leaves and branches which resembled a new life of its own.

It was then that the serpent consumed itself, and while it's shape was that of a serpent, it's form was that of a concept. From the concept, there was nothing left but the leaves and branches, which began new life of its own.

The words were beautiful, going along with the pictures, written in a script-like font that shone with gold embossing. Despite it being a picture book, it was very well made and obviously well treasured by how good of shape the actual page was in, but Mia felt a pang of sadness over the fact that it was ripped out of the book in the first place.

Taking a few moments to glance around the rest of the room, he slowly meandered from one side to the other, taking in everything before deciding to resign back to the central core of the vines.

There were no other pages, nor any book that it had come from.

It was a shame. He had wanted to read the rest.
