[Fin] Murder in the Mountains (End)

[LavenderDream]

"Well, the blizzard almost reduced the chances of anyone else getting in to a zero. Can we just, I don't know? Call someone for help? We're obviously not trained for this."

[KungFuCutbug]

"..." [The Soul simply nods in acknowledgment to Lloyd's comment, less reassured by what he said and more scared of what he'll do to them if they keep mentioning it. They then turn to Vera and shrug their shoulders.] "can we even get help? and can the help even reach us in the storm?"

[Cassie]

>signs of anyone else in the room

Eh, you can't find it, but you do end up finding some bundled chains. Basing by how it's neatly placed on the desk near her bed, that's very much Sericle's.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

> Search for a way to call help

[psychedelicate]

"Um... I-I found these chains over here..."

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Blue responds to the Soul, as she looks from the corpse to the window. Even if someone was ready and willing to help us, which itself is doubtful, if we can't get out of this storm, I'm not sure if anyone can. We might just have to wait it out just a little more, until we can get the right time to get out of here.

[Cassie]

> Any way to call help

OOFSICLES! None!

[Caret]

"That hiker is dead, and from what it appears, it was caused by someone This better not be a trap set up by that no good Lord... wait... Malakai's a cultist... uh oh." Nellie suddenly realizes something. uh oh. "I'm pretty sure that this "hiking trip" has a much more sinister purpose to it other then being a simple hiking trip. But... could it be..."

> does the blizzard outside seem to be natural?

[Weirdguy149]

"Why should we panic about this? We'll just wait for the red and blue strobe lights to come here and everyone will be j-j-j-just peachy!"

Freddy didn't seem to be acting normally at all at the sight of this mutilated woman.

[artsyGeek]

[Kondraki also > checks the blizzard, if only to help Nellie out in case he does anything dumb.]

[LavenderDream]

"So you mean.. Oh.. OH."
Vera rushes past the crowd to open the front door, only to discover that the front door has been frozen shut, and that they're all stuck in the cabin.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Damn it! Guess we'll just have to fend for ourselves until all this snow melts away.

[Cassie]

>is the blizzard natural

Hard to tell when it's so blinding and it's cold as all hell!

[Magolor]

She cautiously props the cultist back up, attempting to tap them awake. They seem to be out cold, though, so she stops.

"Do we have any hot water? We could dump the cultist in some. That should let us interrogate them."

[Zanreo]

"...A door won't be enough to stop me!"

Z runs up to the door and >just kinda slams herself into it to try getting it open

[KungFuCutbug]

[Seeing everybody trying to escape through the door, the Soul decides to lend a hand... bone.]

> throw your skeleton at the door and have it try to whack it open with its bone club

[Cassie]

>Door slam

BAM.

Z used Door Slam!

It doesn't affect the DOOR...

[psychedelicate]

"W-wait, that's... that's a bad idea! It's s-so c-cold out there..."

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Right. You guys are probably getting cold, and I doubt the cold would be good for my systems.

>search for like, a space heater or something

[artsyGeek]

[. .yeah no Konny's not gonna deal with. .that :TM:. Instead, he looks over to Malak, presumably still unconscious.]

"Hey. Wake up, asshat," [he says, crouching in case they can't hear him if he stands up.]

[Caret]

"Too bad, then. There's probably some extra blankets lying around here, so go bundle up if your cold. But for now, we need to get out of here as soon as possible if what I suspect about this place is true." Nellie looks at the windows that Lloyd was smoking out of earlier, and then gets a bad idea.

> attempt to throw yourself out of the window

[MadameButterflyKnife]

It finally hits Blue that everyone's throwing themselves out the doors and windows. Guys. Guys. I know you want to get out, I do as well. But there's a storm. If we break out without any supplies, and without a plan...we're not all going to make it out alive. Trust me, I know. Just...if you're going to try and break the place down, at least make sure we're all ready and supplies.

[Cassie]

>Search for heater

Heaters...there's a fireplace in the front hall.

In every room, there's a vent and a thermostat.

[psychedelicate]

"Y-yeah... she's right... I-I don't like this place either... but..."

[Cassie]

>Throw self out via window

...Oof. Those windows seem strong, given that they don't break at all. No way to get out, it seems.

That's pretty shit for everyone who didn't wanna stay here for so long.
