The light blinds you, but only for a moment. As your vision readjusts, you realize you are in a different part of town. This part's floating over a valley, propelled by eerily noiseless generators. Each island is connected by a walkway of some sort, although most are in ill repair. And as the light finally becomes just that, light, you realize it leads the same way to the end, a building.
Ezekiel. Standing on a small island, with two walkways. Really, just like most choices, it's simple.
The answer may have lasting consequences.
Left or Right? |

Pondering for a moment, Ezekiel turns to the right before frowning, and giving a quick cough. He eyes the walk-way for a moment, but then readjust his position to walk down the left walk-way. |

You walk towards the left, a gradual decline. An ancient stone awaits, faded and dark. |

Keeping a slow inch, Ezykiel examines the stone, pressing his hand upon it while keeping a mind on the ground below. |

You press your hand against it.
"Words have the power to heal and destroy. Not just your words, but ancient ones. Ancient ones of love and piece. Perhaps you'd see the magic within them if they were told, but I cannot." |

Shocked, Ezekiel falls onto his back as he looks around to see who is speaking to him. |

You read the stone. You aren't certain about this... voice you heard. And as time passes, you are certain you just read the stone. |

Breathing heavily, Ezekiel is able to stand once more after a moment of panic. Now, standing, he turns his head, and starts to examine the view around him, and that of past the rock. |

It's fairly similar. On closer examination, the bridge to the next island would require you to walk across a rope. |

Walking down to the rope, Ezekiel falls to his knees, and examines the quality of the rope, and drop below if he were to fail. |

You cannot see the end of the drop below. The rope is slack. |

Remembering the message on the rope Ezekiel speaks, "Heal," in the slim hope of it works, as he feels the rope again. |

It does nothing. |

Ezekiel frowns, then stands, looking at the rope as he gives a gulp. Placing one foot on it, he begins his venture forth across the chasm. |

You place your foot on it.
It wobbles precariously. You place another foot, barely staying on.
And then you plummet, falling to your right. Maybe your hands can save you? |

Ezekiel begins to scream as he raises his hands in dire hope of catching the rope. |

You scream.
You reach out.
You grab the rope. |

Ezekiel's body locks as he looks at his hands' that hold roughly on the rope; noticing he is holding on, a cold sweat broke on his brow as he gave a cautious laugh. |

You laugh at the predicament. Sadly, it doesn't do much. |

Ezekiel looks towards his destination, and slowly begins his moves to reach it. |

You go hand by hand. Now that you've reached the island, you have to somehow get up ontop of it. |

Placing his hands on the ledge of the rock island, Ezekiel attempts to pull up. |

You leg go for a terrifying moment, and reach out for the island. It's not much of a grip, but you found that you could get your leg up and over the rope, and scoot your way to the island. |
