Night 64: X-Ray Room

[damned_intercom]

As soon as the patients entered the dark room, the first thing they might have noticed were a couple of short bursts of static from the intercom. But no voices or cryptic messages greeted them.

Instead, their eyes would undoubtedly be drawn toward the strange picture of a human stomach carefully painted onto the southern wall, its paint casting an eerie green glow that cut into the darkness.

Although the artist had done their best to make the picture as clear as possible, they had apparently decided to leave a sharp kitchen knife perched on X-Ray table to compensate the patients for their troubles. Hopefully whoever picked it up would be able to make good use of it and the clue created for them.

Sora couldn't really think of a situation in which he would be thankful he'd learned more than basic math, but then again, you never did know for sure. He shrugged and started to swing his legs back and forth where they were dangling off the edge of the X-Ray table.

So, Link lived near some kind of kingdom or castle or something. Sora had been exposed to worlds like that, so he was getting a slightly clearly picture of what Hyrule might be like.

"It sounds nice," he said after a pause, smiling slightly. "Uhh, but... I guess no one else is coming, huh?" He glanced toward the door they'd come through and let out a sigh. Was Lingormr making trouble for everyone else? If so, why had they been let off easy? "Should we try to go through there?" He nodded to the other door in the room. Chances were it wouldn't have anything that interesting, but at this point Sora was just getting bored.

"Yes, that would probably be better than sitting around here any longer." In Link's experience, checking every possible new area always led to something good .

Link glanced sideways at the door they had entered from.

"I do hope that Lingormr isn't giving our expected company more trouble than he gave us, though..." He considered checking outside for a moment, but Link realized that that would be a foolish risk to take- especially if the possessed man was reacting violently to potential newcomers.

"I guess... if we look around everywhere here and no one has shown up by then, we can go back out and see what's going on." Sora knew that it was a bad idea to toss himself into a dangerous situation again, but the idea that there were people out there who might need his help was hard to ignore.

First, though, would be exploration. Sora pushed off of the X-Ray table and moved to the mystery door, opening it up with a creak.

"We might get ambushed by monsters or something, so stay close, okay?" he said to Link over his shoulder before stepping through.
