Game: Flowers of Heaven

Who: lost(?) idols
Where: ???? a mysterious garden
When: Day 232

[ You’re in a garden. It’s lush, beautiful, and almost too wild with growth to quite merit the term “garden.” There are fruit trees here, their trunks twisted and knobbled with age, their branches still low enough to easily reach. The ground is carpeted with colorful wildflowers, and flowering vines and wild roses twine around trees and golden trellises alike.

In the center of this roughly circular area is a broken-down stone fountain. The water sits stagnant, and nothing remains of the fountain’s design except a basin and the shattered base of a once-golden sculpture.

The light here is twilit—or just kind of dim, if you want to be less romantic about it. Looking overhead, it’s easy to see why: actually, the sky isn’t visible from this place at all. Instead, there’s a dense canopy of branches forming an almost perfect dome.

How did you get here?
The last thing you vaguely recall is a sudden fit of drowsiness. There’s no sign of any guide or host around, and your powers don’t currently work either.

Maybe, based on all the other idols here, it’s some kind of game…?

Maybe it's National Tree Month in Hell.

Must be incorporated into the programming.

I guess it's appropriately menacing.

You don't have plant trauma, do you?

...

[shrugs]

If I had trauma for everything that's happened in this place, I wouldn't be able to function.

I'm going to take that as a soft no.

...

Let's try to stay close for now.

Then don't mind if I wander.

It's not everyday they let us wander about before letting the other shoe fall.

You're right, it's been a while since that happened last.

[brb going to make clearly good decisions and touch the water in the fountain]
