Level 5: Things that are all too common [Orb / GHB 15]

[shiromadoushi]

Hey guys! Did you know that there's a basement to Hero House?!

[[The background is pretty dark, the glow of something just to the side making it so Bakura can be seen, but not much else]]

I found the door to it in the kitchen, it was shut up pretty tight and since it's a trap down to get down here, it was pretty easy to miss! Looks like there's a pantry down here, though I'm sure everything's old and rotted by now. Sure smells that way! [[Yet he's so very very cheerful]] Looks like it runs the length of the house too! I'm going to go--

[[He pauses, turning to look behind him and moment in silence before turning back to the orb]] Thought I heard something.. though I guess if anyone's upstairs it would--

[[There's a suddenly strange sound like a wind that can be heard quite loudly through the orb as Bakura gives a small exclamation, the image going crazy as if the orb was knocked into, showing the ceiling above, then the dim stone walls, then nothing at all as everything goes black.]]

[She nods, rubbing her arms.]

I wasn't doing anything important, anyway, and I don't mind staying for a little while. Better than being alone again, I'd think.

Action | Belatedly, I realize this should have been in the rumors, but... welp. Time.

[shiromadoushi]

[[Bakura nods before ducking back out into the basement. His ball of light splits as he does so, one staying behind to keep the room illuminated, the other following him out.

It will take a bit of time, but he will be back, with a trio of monks in tow as well as supplies for the careful removal of the body; much cloth, herbs and a stretcher. ]]

Action | Alas

[shadow_sage]

[Liara is still in the room, but standing against a wall across from the bed, arms crossed and eyes closed. She doesn't even look up until everyone gets to hole in the wall.]

Action

[shiromadoushi]

[[Bakura stands aside as the monks climb into the room and start going to work. One lights a small thing of incense as the other two start trying to figure out the best way to wrap the remains without them coming apart. Once he's sure he's not going to knock into anyone, Bakura tiptoes around to stand near Liara.]]


...are you all right...?

[shadow_sage]

[She nodded.]

Yes.

Action

[shiromadoushi]

They have it taken care of now, if you want to step out. He's in good hands now.

[shadow_sage]

[She didn't say anything, just leaned back against the wall, watching.]
