24th Spell: [Video]

[friendyousohard]

Why is there no map for this place... You know, I think that's a project that really needs to be undertaken. Maps of all the various caaaaaaaaa- oof!

[Stepping onto one of the ice-covered floors that covers the ice path, Twilight is interrupted by suddenly slipping and sliding all the way over to the wall on the opposite side, which she crashes headlong into.]

Urgh... that was unpleasant. Alright, just need to pay a bit more attention, let's tryyyyyyy- argh!

[Another step has her legs slipping straight out from under her, and she slides across to another corner of the room on her knees, face first. After a highly unpleasant sounding crash, she lets out a low groan and slides down the wall until she's face down, making highly unhappy noises.]

I. Hate. This. Cave.

[As if to add insult to injury, the Pokemon who's been holding the gear this whole time proceeds to step out onto the ice and easily slide its way over to its hapless trainer, holding out the gear.]

What? Oh just... just shut it off, Champ. I don't even want to worry about that map idea until I'm out of this place, now. Oh, my head...

[Twilight, you are helping greatly to up the Repel sales today.]>

For some reason, the fact that they're blind just makes this information worse...

[friendyousohard]

[My name is Twilight Sparkle and I support this product. No, seriously, I really wholeheartedly support it.]

Trust me, everything you hear about them is just going to make it worse. The more so if you weren't particularly enamored with bats to begin with.

[artificialrose]

I've had enough of frightening and horrible things before coming here... I'd really not want to deal with anything like that.

I'll be certain to pack up with these Repel items before we go anywhere near a cave.

[friendyousohard]

Good, that's wise of you. Beyond that the best advice I can give you for dealing with caves is to just have an idea of which direction you need to go. I'd suggest a map, but I haven't been able to find any.

[artificialrose]

Absolutely none?

[friendyousohard]

To my surprise and irritation, yes. Apparently no one's ever decided that these paths need to be written out.

[artificialrose]

But people have been here for years now, haven't they?

[friendyousohard]

Four years, for some of them, and that's discounting the natives.

I try to justify it as no one even wanting to think about going back in there once they've escaped.

[artificialrose]

I suppose traveling is going to have to rely on a little bit of luck then...

[friendyousohard]

Unfortunately so. And judicious use of a compass.

[artificialrose]

I'll keep that in mind. I think I feel a bit better knowing what to expect now.

[friendyousohard]

Well I'm glad for that. Now then, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to see if I can actually get through this little nightmare.
