Barrier Tower - Exploration/Story

Barrier Tower - Exploration OP
Bruce
 * Could we be inside the tower?

Fina
 * It looks like there are two ways we could go.

Cleome
 * Up or down...

Fina
 * What should we do?

(Bruce does a magic trick, a plant appearing on his hand)

Bruce
 * I propose a little magic trick. It ought to help us decide groups and which way to... Well now.

Fina
 * Bruce? What's wrong?

Bruce
 * Oh, nothing. I've just never seen this type of grass before.


 * It might be something substantial. Why don't you take some as well, Fina?

Fina
 * Oh, thank you.

(Fina takes the grass)

Cleome
 * Anyway, how should we proceed?

Voice from the Grass
 * Anyway, how should we proceed?

Everyone

Cleome
 * Oh, wow. My voice came out of the grass...

Bruce
 * It seems this grass will allow us to communicate with one another over long distances.


 * I've heard tell of such a plant during my travels. "Whisperweed," I believe it's called.


 * With the whisperweed in hand, I think it'd be wise to split into two groups and continue our search.


 * I will take the path leading downward. Fina, Cleome, might I trouble you to head for the upper floors?

Fina
 * Sounds fine to me. Let's go, Cleome.

Fina
 * Bruce! We defeated the monster that was on the top floor!

Bruce
 * You did? That's excellent news!


 * As it turns out, the lower floors lead to the tower's generator.


 * I stopped it immediately—it appeared that was the right call.

Cleome
 * A constant supply of energy might have made it impossible to even get close to that monster...

Fina
 * Yeah. Thank you, Bruce. You saved us!

Bruce
 * Always glad to be of service.


 * Daring heroics aside, this place...

Fina
 * Yes?

Bruce
 * I sense potent memories here.


 * The memories of a man who gave his life to achieve his goal.


 * I wonder if I too...

Fina
 * Bruce...?

Bruce
 * Ah, never mind me.


 * I shall perform a new magic trick once we are safely back in the Farplane Express. I call it "the Voice from Afar."

Fina
 * Wow! I can't wait!

Cleome
 * You have to show us.

Bruce
 * But of course.
