Superbia Intro Log

[cancrymods]

SUPERBIA

With the dragon of greed thoroughly slain, the Executors are at last free to escape the sensory hell of the Avaritia Underside and descend to the next Layer. There's still sound and chatter, of course, but compared to where you've been spending all your time until now. Welcome to Superbia. And make yourself comfortable... because now that you've arrived, the stairs that guided you down here have disappeared and you won't be leaving any time soon. Feel free to use this arrival log to chronicle your initial misadventures in the Pride Layer of Purgatory. As noted in the location page, several locations will require further investigation if you'd like to get some information on them, so get investigating! Drop a comment down to the Investigation Request subheader if you'd like to explore. Get out there and have fun!

[Veil exhales as if she'd been holding her breath (she wasn't) and takes a look over the board. Names and rules come into her mind, enough that nothing seems obviously missing.]

I believe so.

White goes first. I always let my brother go first. To let him think he had an advantage. It would infuriate him when he was young when I would still soundly beat him. He--

[And Chiron...lapses into a hesitant silence again.]

[daughterofthemark]

[. . . ah.]

Perhaps we should play a different game? I seem to recall another that uses the same board, if we can find the proper pieces...

[TRYING TO AVOID SUBJECTS is her specialty today apparently!]

[schardynfreude]

No.

[It's an immediate answer, but it lacks the sharp rebuke Chiron might normally have given.]

No, I want to play-- [Does he? Does he really want that? He shakes his head again.] I...confess that sometimes I don't feel truly here. I simply need...some time to remember. To slot it into place.
