[w

wolf]

Trying to find a ring.

Re: THE CRYPT

[fujimaru]

Wolf! Though a very human wolf, at that. The answer has him raising an eyebrow, like it's one of the stranger things he's ever heard.

"A ring? Haven't seen anything like that here."

[eudaimoniac]

[sighs]

I was afraid of that. Do you know if any of these doors are operable and go somewhere . . . useful?

Re: THE CRYPT

[fujimaru]

He shrugs, scratching at his cheek with one claw.

"I don't know a whole lot about this place as a whole. I'm stuck here. But if you're looking for a way through these doors? Don't."

His tone goes far more serious at that, his eyes narrowing. "There's nothing for you beyond 'em. There's nothing for anyone, on the other side."

Re: THE CRYPT

[eudaimoniac]

[he softens with pity—everyone's stuck here, huh]

Then I should go back? Try a different place?

Re: THE CRYPT

[fujimaru]

Unfortunately, there are a lot of up and at 'em dead people in this heart,

"You'll wanna go where the people are alive," he says. He's not exactly openly sympathetic, but there is something a bit softer in his voice. "Fujimaru remembers more than she should, but that isn't gonna help her."

Re: THE CRYPT

[eudaimoniac]

Another door, then.

. . . I'm sorry. That you're stuck.

Re: THE CRYPT

[fujimaru]

The wolf narrows his eyes further, and then he shrugs.

"We were never meant to exist in the first place," he says. "Nothing but a dead end that should have been cleared away long before anyone found us... but here we are."

Re: THE CRYPT

[eudaimoniac]

[i wouldn't wish that on anyone, he does not say

it's a slight bow instead, a goodbye]

You have my sorrow, then. Forgive me that I can't stay long.

Re: THE CRYPT

[fujimaru]

He blinks, his ears swiveling forward for a moment, then pinning slightly back.

"Yeah," he says, not unkindly. "Get out of here. This isn't a place for someone like you."

Re: THE CRYPT

[eudaimoniac]

[he goes back to the original four doors. taking the third one.]

Re: THE CRYPT

[fujimaru]

The door opens.
