Once the flash from the portal clears, Shadowbinder is nowhere to be seen and the portal that dropped you disappears with a small pop - guess you'll need to find Shadowbinder or get out of this place in some other way. Looking around, the room is filled with many small amethysts - as you look, several of them wink in and out of view. One is conveniently labelled "holder's lair" and might be a way back! You grab an amethyst and success, you see your lair... for a few minutes, until you suddenly are back to the small room. It might be too small to transport you back permanently, and Shadowbinder is still missing.

To your right you can see a closed door and to your left, a staircase heading down. As you move closer to the door, faint scratching sounds can be heard. On the other side the winding staircase is very dark, perhaps unnaturally so. Before opening the door, 10 dragons each take 10 battered shields and use them to enhance their own scales, hoping to withstand whoever is making those sounds. Meanwhile, eight (8) dragons bravely (foolishly?) charge the door without any extra protection, planning to run for it. Twenty-seven (27) dragons each round up 25 candles and make their way down the dark staircase. Nine (9) dragons decide to rely on the strength of their unaided sight and take the staircase down without any candles.

To be continued…

Below you will find the collection of in-character choices offered by adventurers, in the order described above. Some adventurers included additional lore which will be included in the final event recaps.

A number of dragons each take 10 battered shields and use them to enhance their own scales, hoping to withstand whoever is making those sounds.

Hong leans back from the door, lips drawn back in what could either be a snarl or a grin. Those sounds... A fight? The Blood Captain never misses an opportunity to prove her mettle! Hong starts to open the door, but stops short. The Shadowbinder is a tricky one, and so is her domain. And Hong is very important back home; Mog and her crew would miss her. And Malia.

Well, it won't hurt to bring a little extra protection for now…

Honeycrisp looked around the lair with a sigh. Great, just what I need, he thought. Keeping his pearl close to himself, he made his way towards the door. Putting his ear to it,he heard the scratching sounds and instinctively recoiled. I wonder what's in there . . .

He glanced down at the dark steps, contemplating going down them instead, but shook his head. At least I know something is behind this door. I don't know what's down there. Besides, if things go wrong I have my bow and arrow. After looking around for something to use as armor for extra protection, he slowly and carefully tried to open the door, without alerting whatever was inside.

Belladonna looked around herself with a rather heavy sigh great now she was trapped in this room she guessed since she couldn't get home that way then she'd have to play this game and find another way home. The thought of the game seemed enticing true to her routes of a shadow dragon this would prove to be fun.

As she neared the door she jumps back slightly hearing the scratches as something lay behind the door. She looks to the only other way out a dark spiral of stairs and shakes her head. At least by going through this door she'd know that she would be facing something versus facing the unknown. Her training among the mercenaries would come in handy for this fight she though wasn't going to go into this fight unprepared.

Luna gently approached the door, not particularly liking the look of the dark staircase descending into nothingness. She stifled a yelp at the sudden scratching noises, but (fortunately) was able to keep herself quiet. She looked quickly around the room before picking up an old cobweb-covered shield that was laying in the corner of the room, and gave a shaky breath. "H-hello?" Luna called to whatever was on the opposite side of the door. "I'm a bit lost, I need to find my way out of this place. I don't mean you any harm, I'm just going to pass through, if that's okay." she genty pushed the door open, holding the shield in front of her.

Saraceaser wrote:

Well, he wasn't a Shade Hunter for no reason. Deciding to check - even though really didn't want to - he decided he might as well grab some shields for extra armor; Saige wasn't there to heal him if he got hurt, after all.

Niathria wrote:

Not the first time I have dealt with unnecessary squawking in my ear, compared to Ciela constant verbal lists for supplies, this might be a cakewalk.

He scavenging the area, and comes out with a handful of battered shields

After backing up a few steps he charges at the door and brute forces his way out.

AzureDreaming wrote:

Echo listened carefully to the noises beyond the door. A snarl formed on her lips, she may have been battle-hungry but she wasn't foolish, she had no idea what was behind that door. She armed herself with her trusty shield, no beast would keep her from her quest.

Xilusweb wrote:

As Galeru peers into the darkness, he notices the sounds behind the door. Deciding it's best to deal with immediate problems, he braces himself against whatever is lurking beyond. If only he'd thought to borrow a weapon from Pythagoras..

Meanwhile, other dragons bravely (foolishly?) charge the door without any extra protection, planning to run for it.

Korpinsiipi wrote:

Entering the portal is Soyonzur, a huntress never far from Teensy, her Cragbacked Bouldursa. Entering the portal had not been what Soyonzur had planned for the day. She had been on route to deliver her share of the hunt back to her home lair, but had been dragged into this portal after Shadowbinder instead.

It is understandable that Soy was suitably annoyed when the crystal she had hurriedly grabbed did not bring her any closer to leaving.

So the staircase or the door it was. Seeing Teeney tense at the sound coming from the door, Soyonzur flexed her claws and grinned. Not one to back down from a potential fight - and definitely not one to even attempt dragging her bear down the stairs with her - she bravely readied herself for encountering whatever was behind that door.

Kelpoyo wrote:

Fern looked down at the staircase wondering what he was going to do next. His curious tendencies got to the best of him and he decided to just go on an adventure with no protection or a light source what so ever. He looked behind him at the door which would most definitely be the easy way out. However, he decided to plunge straight down into the darkness curious to discover what lies down at the bottom.

Leucoss wrote:

Linden lands heavily and after that false hope of a quick return, he takes off into darkness without even a second thought - he's never been the fastest so any delay in action often means getting left behind, which is far worse than any damage he could sustain.

Many dragons each round up 25 candles and make their way down the dark staircase.

rubiekanary wrote:

"Are you actually kidding me right now?" Roxy sighed in annoyance upon realizing that he was trapped. He should probably find a way to get out of here. Who knows what could be lurking in the shadows?

At first, he attempted to approach the closed door, only to jump back when he heard sounds coming from behind it.

"Right. Forget that!" Roxy didn't know what could be behind that door, but he didn't want to chance it. He still wanted his arms and legs and wings intact before all this was over. He looked back to his left.

"Guess I'm heading thay way."He mused out loud. "I should probably find something to light my way first... Don't wanna, trip over a dead skeleton, or something..."

Kawaiicoco789 wrote:

Deciding that taking the dark stairs would be the safer option, Fallon wondered where it would lead. She didn't think she would need any candles, as she was a shadow dragon with glowing eyes and lived in the Foxfire Brambles. However she'd rather be safe than sorry, so she took out some candles and prepared to make her way down.

Disillusionist wrote:

"Ooh, ooh! What's down here?" Butcher waddles forward and squints into the darkness. He can't see very well, and he quickly decides he needs some extra light. He bounces back to grab some candles and then, trusting his natural armor for protection, he descends the staircase.

Delcat wrote:

The flapping and snapping of Moonside's quilted pelt as she folds herself down to size both sounds like and causes a small, chaotic, but thankfully contained gale. It's only when the winds are still and she's little more than a spidery, compact conglomeration of tentpole bones and rolled canvas that the flaps of her ribcage open to let out the candles, floating out to line the stairs as she skitters down.

Let's see if candle-like items will help…

Stanzascale wrote:

Was it possible for something to have addictive qualities without being imbibed? Eada had known the occasional individual to be dedicated to the adventuring life without apparent reason.
It hadn't been all that long ago when she'd caved to her brother's insistence that they explore a chasm in the Shifting Expanse and encountered strange and wondrous creatures and treasures. A glimpse of the Mother of Secrets immediately threw the Skydancer into the scenario once again. Perhaps to adventure, whether once or several times, was to show the gods some willingness to be flung into the unpredictable?

Such ponderings were unimportant for now. Maybe Eada would have an opportunity to grab a written rumour or trinket, but first she was going to get away from whatever was scratching at that door. As one who hatched in shadows, Eada decided to try avoid the notice of anything potentially hostile on this occasion. The Skydancer headed for the stairs, making use of candles to ensure no traps escaped her notice in the darkness.

Juri01 wrote:

Luckly, I remembered I was still carrying some candles. I had planned to use them in my next ~~scheme~~ expert consultation, but they had to serve their purpose earlier than planned. They did a great job lightning up the dark staircase. And down, and down, and down... I went.

tigressRising wrote:

Coppice paced across the room as she considered her options, tail twitching with nervous energy. Having served as her clan's Shadow Representative for most of her adult life, she had been extremely looking forward to celebrating Trickmurk Circus in the Tangled Wood and meeting the Shadowbinder. But to see the deity completely ignore the festivities and play a tabletop game instead... Well, Coppice knew that Shadowbinder was capricious, but she couldn't help but feel disappointed anyways.

So when Coppice had seen the Shadowbinder jump into a mysterious portal, she couldn't help but be curious and follow her. Now Coppice was stuck between two choices, trying to figure out which path would lead her back to safety.

She finally decided to take the staircase down, figuring it would be safer than trying to get past whatever was scratching behind the door. She took several candles with her as an extra precaution - while her Shadow eyes could see through the dark easily, Coppice hadn't been raised in the Tangled Wood but in the Sea of a Thousand Currents, so she wouldn't be familiar with any illusions that might lead her astray.

Solstices wrote:

Calypso was just passing through the circus, taking a look at the stalls, when a familiar feeling passed over him. By the time he recognized what it was and tried to resist it, it was too late and he was through the portal.

Upon arrival, he noticed two paths. One led through a door to goodness knows what and the other down a staircase, also to goodness knows what.

"Ahh, a dilemma." He pondered for a while, then produced several candles, seemingly out of nowhere. "These will have to do."

And down the staircase he went.

RemanLT wrote:

Nightshade struggled to her feet and took stock of her new surroundings. She didn't recognize this place at all, but she could see these strange amethysts everywhere, blinking in and out of sight. Reaching out to take one, she was surprised to see that it opened up a portal to a large storeroom. Why, that was one of the storerooms back at the citadel! After a few minutes, though, the portal closed again.

Recalling her studies of portal magic, Nightshade figured that a portal like this was probably not strong enough to take her back to her lair. However, she could probably use her telekinesis to bring a few things through it instead. Looking around once more, the Imperial didn't like the sounds she heard coming from behind that closed door, so instead she decided to grab a few candles to see just what was down that darkened stairway. Hopefully no one would ask questions about what had happened to them once they got back home!

Anukite wrote:

Yeehaw approached the dark entrance warily, candle in hand. 'Buckle up, Yeehaw,' he thought to himself, and started down.

”Welgan” wrote:

Well... I have no equipement and no clue. I guess I'm just my own class...
Hum.
Let's see, then, if...

Latheilen, aloud : I'm casting Home Lights on myself as a level 1 summoning cantrip !

Immediatelly, a dozen lit candles she recognized coming from the very room where they had their games appeared all around her, floating in the air by her magic.

She smiled with satisfaction.

Oh, this is going to be so much fun...

And she headed carefully yet excitedly in the staircase, hoping to find soon some party members to help her in this adventure...

yuubi wrote:

Considering his options, he was swaying back and forth on his feet when his uncle Horned Frog started to croak loudly.
"Oh yeah, right, i bet they dont mind if we grab some candles!" Gecko answered back with blowed up throat and used one of the crystals to grab some of those shady looking candles that were placed around the Temple of Storms.
While his family had fantastic nightvision, Gecko was the black sheep frog of the family, lacking that important ability just like his blind grandpa Toad.

Grabbing the needed candles, he hopped towards the staircase, enlighted them with his magic and proceeded to tackle the below.

tsukisasaki wrote:

Kaleth looked around the room, uneasy. What was supposed to be a routine visit to Shadowbinder was looking to be an uneasy adventure. He flitted about the room, unsure of what to do, but deciding that if he was going to find Shadowbinder and get home, he was going to need to head into the darkness down the stairs. He grasped the amethyst to go to his lair and grab some candles. He might be a Shadow dragon, but that darkness looked to be too much.

0phidian wrote:

Even the slightest vision of returning home empty-clawed, sends the amethyst in her grasp shattering to the ground below. A raptor-claw clicks on the once-clean floor- sharply cracking down on any fragments flown beneath. The ceaseless scraping is murder to her senses, the dark stairwell, which only conjures an illusive figment that it will not break away into the abyss- leads her in with a thrall. One eye, buried beneath a pitch scar gleams in fervor. This was a trial from the Shadowbinder herself! and if she passed..
A true denizen of The Tangled Wood, even the smallest hatchling; knew combat were only for those not slick enough to slip away. The royal-scaled raptor attempts to descend the stairwell with poise, but excitement sends her bounding downwards like a child.

hermitqueen wrote:

Tucking the amethyst she had gathered into her mantle, she peered down the stairway. It was dark, exceedingly so. Full of... shadows? Hm. Luckily she carried a month's supply of candles in her mantle at all times. The fates, she tended to find, align in favor of such things nine times out of ten. She dug around, feeling the amethyst clink against her talon, pulled out a supply, and lit them, letting them float around her head as they were wont to do. (No use questioning this, she always said!) She then began to nose her way down the stairway, wondering what exactly the deity of her birth clan was up to.

Adriel wrote:

She walked over towards the door, but scratching sounds halted her in her tracks. No way was she equipped for an encounter with any type of creature. Not in this dark, little space. The staircase promised more shadows, but luckily Vespera usually kept a sack full of candles with her. They were always handy for a light element dragon to have on hand in the shadow lands. She pulled one out, lit it, and ventured down the staircase.

PlantQueen wrote:

FireCoral shakes his hair looking around. This wasn't his lab? He spots the glowing amethyst and suddenly hes hit with flashes. A booming explosion. Was that from the pinecones he was boiling? Surely not. Then the Great Mother. Then swirling gripping shadows. Now he's here. FireCoral reaches down for his satchel grumbling that his potion was going to overcook for the festival. He fumbles out some candles, a glow worm, and an oil lamp? How did that get in there? Any case. He makes his way down the stairs, curiosity piqued.

alyblaith wrote:

That door seems risky -
a friend? or a fight?
What's down this staircase?
Better bring a light!

The remaining dragons decide to rely on the strength of their unaided sight and take the staircase down without any candles.

moonlitcacti wrote:

“Ajisai is confident that she can navigate down the stair case without any light. She spends most of her time in darkness, traveling through an diffrent, dark reality. She has seen all of the monsters that lurk in the shadows. She might even be one of them.”

Nargeorgicorn wrote:

Crystalline huffed in annoyance. Now was definitely not a great time for him to be gone, but whatever. He'd deal with it. The wildclaw cautiously approached the door, pulling back slightly when he heard the scratching. Whatever was in there could be dangerous, and since he didn't have any armor or weapons on him other than his own claws, it'd be a gamble to go in. Still, though, he'd rather fight something head on than face whatever unknown thing was down those dark stairs...
In the end, logic won out, and with a sigh, Crys warily started down the stairs, eyes peeled for any sort of danger.

Thewarywatcher13 wrote:

Xolotl had hoped for a quiet visit to the Wood this Trickmurk Circus, but knowing his homeland and the name of the holiday, it was perhaps too much to hope for. Very well, he’d see where this strange portal has taken him and find himself some hidden glen later, so that he might rest away from all the cries and cheers of crowded Circus. There ought to be some way to get back to where he was. He cast a sidelong glance at the door on his right. Not particularly inviting, was it? A fight didn’t seem particularly appealing just then, and there was no guarantee that whatever was behind the door knew he was there, anyway. He’d sooner lay low until he knew more about his situation. The skydancer turned left and slunk down the stairs as quietly as his gembond would allow. It didn’t even occur to him to seek a light source- he was too accustomed to the dark.

Zamirathe wrote:

Idalyn had decided to return for Trickmurk despite her better judgement. A trickster cleric among other tricksters was not always a good idea. She had been enjoying the festival up until the point that she got sucked onto this plane with no way home. I knew I should've gone the other direction as soon as I saw the Shadowbinder. She thinks, but collects herself once more. She is a cleric of the realm, so therefore she must not question why she got dragged along behind.

As her home is in the light domain, this area is a little to dark for her liking and so she casts Light on herself just enough so that it gives her a glow and a way to light her path. The door looks intriguing, and listening she hears the scratching behind it and shakes her head. It might be something needing help, but only her mace on her belt and the shield over one arm isn't going to do much here. She has no other means of defense except to disappear. "I'll come back for you." She whispers to the door and turns around. Finding no other way out except for the staircase down, she walks slowly down letting her magical glow light the way.

GuardianDragonak wrote:

As a well trained ninja of her village, Lune (as others tended to shorten her name to) was well versed in walking in pitch dark with only her other senses to guide her. Something seemed strange about the darkness, so she doubted her normal candles would help her anyways.
She began to descend alert and aware of where all her hidden weapons were concealed and which pages she might need to flip to in her spell book, just in case.

GalindaUpland wrote:

Chloe got up, skillfully untangling herself from being a pile on the ground. she wasn't sure what had happened, but she knew she wasn't where she was before. she felt her way around and found a staircase, she decided to head down it not realising or caring how dark it was because she was blind anyways.

hikaye wrote:

-" I will be damned If I didn't hear something coming from over there"- mutters the male guardian carefully looking around -why did I leave my shell and my candle home?"- he approaches the stairs -" bAh there are not a lot of things bigger than me so let's give a good look"-.

LynterriaHatake wrote:

Kuutamo looked around the room and sighed. This is why we never visit home. Naturally, his first time back in the Tangled Woods would result in an unfortunate predicament. Unwilling to head straight into confrontation, he decided to get to the bottom of things, literally. Named for moonlight and equipped with lanterns, Kuutamo felt no need to gather any additional light sources before continuing on.

Fortunately, the candles help and you successfully navigate down. The stairs open into a seemingly endless corridor with both sides lined with dozens of doors. Idly, you try the nearless door - *click*, closed. You hear a shuffle from the shadows behind you and whirl around only to come face to face with...your brother?! Kellmite tells you the sounds behind the door frightened him so he raced down the stairs to hide. (Now if only you could figure out how he ended up here in the first place!) Now safely together in the soft glow of your candles, you continue your search of the area.
