Let it Snow: Orange Start

The moment Red team jumps the voice speaks again. “Orange team to doors. Void shift imminent. Ten, nine, eight, seven...” There is a lurch and the train seems to tumble. The windows flash with the void for a second before they are once again surrounded by snow.

The train steadies, the doors open, the train is in mid-air and one step away from the train doors there is an ice platform. Crossing is not too hard, though a bit daunting. They are very high up and the ice is inherently slippy.

The platform is not large enough for them all and so the only natural way is for them to begin entering the labyrinth to allow everyone off the train. The moment the last person leaves the train it blinks away and the moment everyone has entered the labyrinth there is a grinding sound and the ice behind them closes.

For good or ill they have entered. Their goal is clear, a strange machine suspended in the centre of the maze but getting there will be a challenge. Though it looks like they should be able to merely walk towards it walls of ice stand in their way. The only way to stop any of this is to get through the labyrinth.

Sorry, I never got back to this thread. Good place to end, I think!

"This Jocko sounds like a very loyal sort. Well, he seems to have taken good care of you and your Mistress, and I wish him well."

He looks towards the walls of ice that they will have to find their way into and through to get to the machine in the center.

"Let's go into the labyrinth. We'd better get started searching the place." And he walks towards the entrance, throwing a smile over his shoulder and beckoning her in.
