Memory Cave

After the passengers see a glimpse of a life that is not their own they appear in a cave. It is light, a strange moss glowing on the walls and ceiling illuminates the cave nicely and it is large enough for them to pace around in without trouble.

They are not alone. In the cave with them is another voidtrecker. Maybe someone they know well, maybe someone they have only seen in the aisles of the train. But they are together in this cave together.

The cave has no exit, at least not yet. They know that it will, eventually. When the time is right.

But for that time to come, they first must talk...

"Hm. So we have, as a theme, perhaps our most recent memory before coming here and... possibly a first meeting of someone important to us. It certainly seems a good way to get us to know each other, but beyond that... I do not know. Were you able to find any clues?"

She shook her head slightly. She didn't think to even look for clues, but looking around she didn't see anything that would help them solve the problem.

"I can't say I saw any clues."

"I suppose it was too much to hope it would be easy!" She sighs and then smiles.

"Well, I suppose we have the beginnings of a theme, at least. I hope that will be the end of it, but who knows?"

"I think this will last until we leave, maybe? Which... Isn't that fun, but maybe we'll figure more out then." Maybe even more if there is a theme for a reason why each of them was picked to see each others memories.

But soon she turned her head and noticed something.

"Were the doors there before?"
marriedanidiot: (Default)

did you want to do the third memory?

[personal profile] marriedanidiot 2020-09-02 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
She looks up and frowns.

"No. This does rather make it seem more an island thing, doesn't it? I am sure they weren't there before."
adropofsunlight: (274 (B))

We can handwave it if you'd like.

[personal profile] adropofsunlight 2020-09-04 11:09 am (UTC)(link)
"I mean when we came they weren't here before. So I can only assume that for once this isn't anything to do with the train."

But it just makes it all the more puzzling. if this was meant to be a place to relax, this sure wasn't a way to do that.

am happy to leave it up to you ^^; I am very slow still tho

[personal profile] marriedanidiot 2020-09-06 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Yes." She frowns thoughtfully at the doors.

"Still, I suppose we had best leave while we still can."
adropofsunlight: (294 (B))

I'll be happy to handwave.

"Yes, I mean a cave can be...nice and all....But I don't think I'd like to live here for long periods." She was trying to make a joke, but really... it would just remind her of being trapped in the tower.

ok then ^^

[personal profile] marriedanidiot 2020-09-07 12:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Agreed. And if we were going to live in a cave, I can think of much nicer ones!"
adropofsunlight: (126 (B))

[personal profile] adropofsunlight 2020-09-11 12:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"There are nicer ones?"
marriedanidiot: (Default)

[personal profile] marriedanidiot 2020-09-11 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh yes!" She smiles.

"Tis too bad Findarato has not been brought here... I never saw his kingdom, but they say Nargothrond was a marvel, the natural caves that the River Narog made enlarged and coaxed into grand halls and fine rooms. And Elwe too, made his keep in a cave, and they say that the wonder of Menegroth, the Thousand Caves, was such that it has never been matched and never will be."

"So people did live in caves there then?" It's what it sounded like anyway, but she couldn't be exactly sure either.

[personal profile] marriedanidiot 2020-09-15 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh yes! Not in Aman, at least, not amongst the Noldor, although for all I know the Sindar in the woods might return to such ways when Elwe is Reborn. But Findarato has assured me that Nargothrond was both beautiful and functional. Easy to defend, caves."

She nodded slightly, listening to what she had to say for the most part. But soon she was looking over things again, thinking she saw something out of the corner of her eye.

"it seems like the cave is allowing us to leave now at least."

"Ah!" Nerdanel follows her eyes and smiles. "So it has. Shall I see you on the other side then?"
adropofsunlight: (155 (B))

[personal profile] adropofsunlight 2020-09-21 12:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hopefully." She said looking at the door, giving a small breath before she went to walk through.

Nerdanel watches first, to make sure Rapunzel gets out safely, before following.
