Yuletide 2 - Battle 1

[cascadingfailure]

[ Once you enter the Escape Room, a series of messages pops up on your phones: ]

TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wellll it looks like Naffy's out of commission? It'll take her awhile to reboot with how hard she just got hit by the autocensor!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Whatever you did, it really made her mad! Haha!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway since I know what's going on now, I'm happy to help! It looks like the nature of the threat is a gang war between an evil thought sealed and another that you all and your fans helped to return to the world of the not-so-living? Wild!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: In case you didn't get the memo, this means you're going to explore the combination WcDonald's and Damned Queen's Cookies!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There you'll find something you're looking for, probably…? But mostly you're looking for a way to contain the outbreaks!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: And fortunately, we've received a message from a friendly entity known only as "The Borger King", who apparently has a stake in the downfall of Lonard's lost empire…
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: It says:
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There is a war going on for your mind. Steal their secrets. Create the Ultimate Prankburger. The king awaits. Salvation will come.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wow! It looks like it's time for corporate espionage, or something?
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway, you get to keep everything you find, unless it's a dolphin! That's mine.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Better get going! Charge!!!!!

[ And then everything goes white... ]

Damned Queen's Cookies - Santae Room

[cascadingfailure]

Now Playing - ???



This is the Santae Room. In the Santae Room, you may have to take certain risks, such as having your soul seared by the holly jolly gaze of the patrolling Santae. Of course, if you had Laser Mastery, you could easily avoid the Santae.

Somehow, the Damned Queen's Yuletide magick feels tenuous here - despite the attempts of the Santae to hold everything together, it is clear her battle with Lonard caused great damage to her ability to maintain her domain. The music is unsure, uncertain. Easily interruptable, even. But not while the Santae are a danger…

[Immediately taking a step back out of reflex when he sees the Santas.]

[heavenlyvisitor]

...Stealth mission.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Well they're getting a call apparently so he's actually going to gesture to Tenn to back into the Lobby to answer.]

[heavenlyvisitor]

[ ONCE THEY COME BACK HERE: ]

...I have an idea. But you have to go along with it, and can't make fun of it.

[bondsofsuffering]

I'm starting to think we're going to need to do the freezer first, but it sounds like Nemesis and Hurricane might be able to hook us up with weapons.

Sooooo with that out of the way, what's your plan?

[heavenlyvisitor]

I'm going to use an illusion to turn us into Santas, and we're going to walk right past them.

[bondsofsuffering]

Oh. Yeah, that's a really good idea.

[heavenlyvisitor]

[ oh no, he was praised. ]

A- Alright.

Here we go.

[ He uses Through The Looking Glass.

And makes them look like the Santae. ]

[bondsofsuffering]

Ah- hey, wait, we should probably do the freezer first?

[He's still texting the other side...]

It sounds like they have money we can try buying weapons with, too.

[heavenlyvisitor]

The Santas wouldn't fight other Santas.

...But, it's an option, I suppose.

[bondsofsuffering]

It's the creepy idol in the freezer I'm worried about. But if they're in WcDonald's, my thinking is, these places might be connected by the freezer space.

Of course, I could be totally off, but if we can all group up somehow that's definitely for the best.

[heavenlyvisitor]

...Alright. I'll follow you to whatever.

[bondsofsuffering]

Thanks, Tenn. Let's definitely use your power when it comes time to cross that field of Santae - I want to avoid dealing with them as much as possible.

[heavenlyvisitor]

[ time to return to the freezer! ]

FREEZER SLIDE

[idolpro]

By taking the [[WOW! COOL! SLIP N' SLIDE]] in the Freezer, you have avoided the Santae and landed right in front of the manor door.

The manor door is currently UNLOCKED.

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[heavenlyvisitor]

[ oh.

he wanted to trick them... ]

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[bondsofsuffering]

[Oh...........]

...I guess we have no choice now.

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[heavenlyvisitor]

...

I suppose we should go, then.

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[bondsofsuffering]

It feels a little like it's telling us, "get going already!" huh?

[Though he's going to text Hurricane real quick to update him on the situation, coughing just a little.]

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[heavenlyvisitor]

This is definitely the save point before the final boss that tells you that the final boss is in the next room.

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[bondsofsuffering]

Think we should go in using your illusions? In case there's guards and stuff.

We need to find her "seat of power" apparently. If we can do that, it should weaken her.

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[heavenlyvisitor]

[ he nods. ]

That's a good idea.

[ and so he uses an illusion to turn them into santae


and goes to open the door. ]

Re: FREEZER SLIDE

[idolpro]

Proceed.
