It says it's standing in the lava of the CoS right? Guess we'll find out for ourselves soon. Maybe it's Minos.

could be...

Quote

In Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy story Inferno, Minos is depicted with having a snake-like tail. He sits at the entrance to the second circle in the Inferno, which is the beginning of Hell proper. Here, he judges the sins of each soul and assigns it to its rightful punishment by indicating the circle to which it must descend. He does this by circling his tail around his own body the appropriate number of times. He can also speak, to clarify the soul's location within the circle indicated by the wrapping of his tail.

sounds an awful lot like COS to me!

Oh did you all have a scythe room too? Where you had to move at specific times twice to exit?

yep, and we had to use our last key on the door

These fucking devils and demons lurking 'round every corner.

At least there's still no centaurs.

Same here I used the last of ours...hmm us meeting really synced up perfectly at the bridge. Is it stupid of me to think that is odd? I mean I know we all have free reign to do whatever the fuck we want at any point but...I don't know.

About the possessing thing, just to put this out there again, I think Roy is his final shell. Roy misunderstood something key in his Role and killed himself early on in Russian Roulette thinking he was bulletproof. This spirit has saved Roy's corpse all of this time and other than death flavor and Alex, the only thing he wanted to know was how close Roy was to the exit. How many rooms/what direction.

Maybe Roy's role said something about permanence and he got confused.

lol I think it's just cuz Alex and Baggy were able to communicate and get us moving towards each other. but yes the timing was quite perfect

well Robert did ask his corpse what his role was. IIRC Robert finally told us Roy's reply when we met up with his unfrozen self but unfortunately I don't think i saved it :/ maybe Malarkey or Bryce did

I THINK Roy replied that he was impervious to attacks but somehow not to taking a bullet to the skull... but I could be remembering it all wrong

Interesting, I keep forgetting he came back to life...twice and died...thrice.

The southern wall of 8974 - is that an obstruction of some sort?

I think that's a locked door? the computer readout says 8974 has north/south exits

Ah, that'll block my scope from going all the way North then.

Doesn't matter or anything, I just thought I was getting to peek through eight rooms.

If/When we bring back Helios or whoever, how do we plan on meeting back up with them? One of us would have to take the shuttle back this round to make it available, wouldn't we?

Dont they just appear in the COS when we resurrect them? I always understood it that way
