You relight the torches, and move in a bit closer to observe. You make sure not to stand underneath the skull, lest it feel like closing while you're under it. You can see that the top jaw of the skull was hiding a bronze octagon, set in the door, with another bronze disc inside of the octagon. You see the four finger holes, but there's a large divot in the center, this time.

I think the most logical place for us to look into is that large chamber filled with lava and something in the center. It should be safe for us to get down there, but is there something else we should do first? I can't think off the top of my head of anything in particular that would help us reach that island.

Most likely wouldn't do much good without the larger stone we need. Best be to move along, though I forget what else we need to accomplish.

I wouldn't be opposed to checking there, maybe we missed something that goes in the large divot

I need to go look through the things we've found again, might take a while. In the meantime I guess let's start heading there.

You make your way down, heading for the balcony overlooking the large lava room. Just outside the room where you found Gusty, you get a slight headache. Other than that, however, things are uneventful until you reach the room where you found the green eye. You take your time, heading slowly for the staircase, as the golem is still patrolling around the spire. Same motions, same amount of steps, same amount of time, never looking your way.

The trek downward goes unimpeded. As you pass by the dilapidated golem, you wait to see if you can hear the other golem from the stairwell below. After some time waiting, you hear nothing, and proceed to the west. You find yourselves standing on the balcony overlooking the lava room once more.

Just to clarify, what exactly is the piece of armor that we have? Just a bronze plate that would go straight onto the chest?

You have Saffron hold you stable, and you squint as hard as you can into the glare of the lava. To the left (east, due to your facing), there seems to be a doorway connected to the short platform.

I dunno, I mean if we fail, it's death. Seems kind of risky for a random platform.
I'm curious just how far away it is anyways
>>
what program are you using to draw these
>>
Copypasted objective list from some anon at the end of the last session:

>Fire door (don't think we can progress there yet; might be linked with stone column given it's got the turning instructions nearby it)
>Beast mural (Charcoal rub, purely for info's sake, no progression)
>Column (Not really doable without entering into MORTAL KOMBAT with that top guard, and likely the bottom guard as well)
>Pedestal-in-middle-of-lava (Might be able to get a better look at what's in the middle/what that platform to the side is, but no idea how to progress here)
>BRIDGE (Possibly related to above? still no idea what the deal is here)
>Happy door (Guarded, again no idea how to progress)

Maybe we could go try to rub something out of that mural? The only other thing I can think of at this moment is for Saffron to wear the armor piece and I really don't want to see that.

Another thing I was thinking is that Chronicle or Saffron could probably safely go see what the real deal is with that corpse stack, but honestly I don't know how much that would help. What do you guys think?

>>4346045

The skull door wasn't on the list since I guess it was written when we were standing in front of the skull door, having just revealed the circular indent.

>>4346033

Guessing the happy door leads to that platform, then. Too bad it's guarded by an angry statue.

You make your way up to where Saffron found the first gauntlet. Carefully making your way past the floor with the golem, you all file your way into the room above the spire. As you approach the center, you can hear the stomping of the golem echoing up through the hole in the floor. You can easily see it, as well, and you're afraid if it took the time to look up it could see you just as easily.

You approach the mural on the wall with the unknown hieroglyphs below it. Saffron frowns at the mural, her gaze switching between the mural and the hole in the center of the room, keeping an eye on the golem. Chronicle is speechless once more, and he cannot tear his eyes from the mural.

Use charcoal on the glyphs below the mural.

The row of hieroglyphs along the mural is rather long, so you rub the left half of it on the paper first, followed by the right half. All the while, the soft scraping of your piece of charcoal along the paper is backed by the rhythmic thudding of the golem's steps echoing up to you.

This looks like the "other" script, the one that was on gusty's paper from the beginning.

Unfortunately that means it's effectively meaningless to us. Well, it's good to have it anyway. Save it for later.

What should we do now?

>>4346996

We can either check out the BRIDGE glyphs again or check out the fire door.

If everyone were to agree on it Saffron could put on the chest piece and we could send her to brawl with one of the golems.

Reminder that Baldwin would probably be super pissed at this event though.

>>4347045
i don't think we can get out of here without Baldwin being pissed, anymore

No! The chest piece is ours. We can't afford to have Saffron put on any more.

Fuck
I feel like one of the endings is going to involve Saffron putting on all the armor and something bad happening to her soul
And another might be avoiding that, but nothing is coming to mind how
>>
>>4347112
But the armor reacted to us, we just couldn't put our whole hoof in the gauntlet. You saw Saffron vs. Chance, I think she could take a golem on as-is.
>>
>>4347141
I'm not to sure about that.
>>
>>4347141

Those golems are huge.
>>
>>4347153
Maybe give it to Chronicle? He seems to have a better use of magic than us. Saffron can one-hand that fucking huge sword and tussle with a diamond dog three times her size because of the armor, I think it boosts your abilities.
>>
Let's ask Saffron how she feels about her combat abilities.

She hasn't said much since she picked up that sword.
>>
I think we need some way to lure the golem onto the platform, then Saffron can shove it into the lava
>>
>>4347300
IF memory serves there wasn't any way to get it out of that room, though

It's our job to at least TRY putting on the armor.

Where's your sense of adventure, guys?

I'm fine with that as well but I don't think that it will work.

You ask Saffron what she thinks of her ability to fight at the moment, if she feels strong enough to potentially take on a golem.

"Well... I don't really feel any different, I feel like I'm not wearing anything."

She waggles around the sword effortlessly, one that you assume weighs more than you or Chronicle.

"I guess I am stronger, I opened up those huge doors, and... and all that stuff with Chance. I might be able to."

After much thought, you decide to put yourself in harm's way before subjecting Saffron to any more of the armor. You tell her that you're going to try on the armor piece, because the right gauntlet seemed to react to you earlier. You tell her that you're sorry you put her up to everything she's been through so far, and stolidly ask for the bronze plate. She reluctantly pulls it out of her bag and holds it up to you.

With some assistance from Saffron, you rear yourself up and levitate the plate towards you. As it gets near, you can feel the heat emanating off of the metal. When you press the center of the plate against your chest, the burning sensation hits you, and there are a few clinks; microscopic hinges loosing, the panels wrapping around the side of your body. You want to scream, and your mouth opens, but nothing comes out. The sensation is intense against your chest, but completely unbearable along your sides, and your spine starts to tingle. You hold the armor there for as long as you can, but have to let go. It pulls away from you, and instantly the pain is gone, Saffron hovering over you worriedly.

"R-Renne! Are you okay? What happened?"

You tell her that it felt like it was burning, and that pins were pricking your sides, but the armor did not seem to attach.

You think about how your spine was tingling, and the sensation at your sides when holding the armor up to your chest. You let Saffron and Chronicle know that you want to attempt it one more time, but with the armor on you're back.

"If... if you're sure, Renne."

"I am not sure that is a good idea, but... I cannot stop you."

You lower the piece onto your back, feeling the intense heat. The piece of armor unhinges itself in anticipation.

If Saffron could have chewed through the fingers of the armor, she would have by now. She hurries to your side, smothering you with questions and concerns.

"Renne! Oh Celestia please tell me you're okay! Please! Are you hurting still?"

You glance back at your new attire and... admittedly, you kind of forgot it was there for a moment. It covers the top of your back and just up to the bottom of your neck, and wraps around your sides, but not completely. It is attached to you, yet it does not feel as if it is there at all, not impeding the movement of your back or shoulders one bit. You tell Saffron that you're fine, and it was just a big rush but you feel better now.
>>
>>4348698

I guess we should ask Saffron to insert the stone ?
>>
Well this all begs the question, if the gloves gave Saffron extra strength in her arms (and loss of her mind), what will this body armor do for Renne?
>>
>>4348731
We can fly!
>>
>>4348731

Well it was right outside the large lava chamber with the word "bridge" written under it so game logic says it probably will help us with that room.

I'm genuinely curious to see what the experience of slotting the stone will look like from Renne's perspective.
>>
>>4348718
You think that's wise?
>>
>>4348718
i dunno... just putting on the armor was pretty fucking intense
i feel even worse for Saffron now that we did that to her twice ;_;
>>
>>4348755

We should definitely go to the lava chamber first but... sure?
>>
>>4348824
I agree, you made a good point for trying to head there
>>
>>4348824
which end of it?
do we go to the balcony or the door?
the happy door leads to the lava room right?
>>
>>4348850

We can't get to the happy door without fighting the golem.
>>
>>4348894
well shit... balcony it is then

You shake yourself off and get your bearings once more. Your knees are a little shaky, but you seem to come back up to speed quickly. All the while, you keep forgetting that the armor is even attached to your back. Once again tiphoofing past the golem, you make your way down to the lava room overhang. You take a long look out and... nothing really seems different about it.

The ceiling is rather unremarkable, the cave coming to a peak in a dome shape. Across the way, you can see a pair of chains attached to the wall, yet hanging loose and not connected to anything on the other end.

Good. At least we know there's no lava spiders hiding up there to drop down on us.

Even after seeing what Saffron went through, twice, with the stones, you call her over and ask for her to place one of the stones into the slot on your armor. She doesn't say anything, and only frowns as she walks up and pulls the jasper stone out of her bag.

When the stone is slotted into place, a jolt runs through your body. You can feel the sensation of heat once again, but it is inside of you this time. It feels as if someone is taking your very essence and wrenching it out of your chest.

Your heart hurts, and it feels like your soul is aching. From nowhere, and everywhere, you start to hear a voice.

"Renne"

You shake your head, trying to clear it.

"Hello Renne"

Hrmm, so that's only the redstones in that design. We didn't see anything that looked like the bluestone armour on him, either.

Just after we've crushed Chance and apologized for the ridiculousness that accompanied that.

I was hoping it'd happened when she'd put the gloves on; crinkling of the flesh from the heat or something and that that was it, but nope, it's clearly spreading.

Do you think the armor saffron has on is the same as the set renne just put on?
Because as I reacall, Back when saffron put on the first piece something else took over "I'm sorry, I had to act"... That whole thing. We asked the tumblr and he at least acted like he had no idea what we were talking about. When renne but on this bit here he said hello...
Also, this guy is an evil self serving asshole who is just using renne... he may even of been the one to set everything in motion
Another thing, Now that we have this bit of armor on... do you think we are a brighter "becaon" (or how ever it was he put it) ?
