The group headed Northwards. Things were very grim at the moment. As the door opened they stepped beyond into a large stony room with the familiar sounds of swinging scythes. It seemed like a while since they'd seen these things.

Bones were scattered throughout but the most prominent feature was the corpse of Hupu. Laying on the ground with a bullet wound in its chest, it was going quite off. There was dry blood splattered over the floor beneath it.

Bryce walked over and examined the corpse. They'd travelled the longest time together but Hupu so barely ever spoke. Still he was comforting in a way to have there. How times had changed. He stood up and took off his hat, standing in silence over his old dead following buddy.

Ninefingers glanced up at the two scythes. They were obscuring the Northern exit but the exit to the West they could walk through without any trouble whatsoever. He sighed as he looked at the remnants of the once hopeful group up in the ante-room.

And he nodded. Time to press on some more.

To get beyond the scythes to the Northern exit, you must time your movements right. There are two scythes. To move beyond them you must post ##Scythe: North or ##Scythe: South depending on the direction you wish to move. You must do this twice, one for each scythe.

However these actions can only be posted within the first five minutes of the hour. For example, submitting your movement at 14:06 will not get you past the scythe, but submitting it between 14:00 and 14:05 will. The time on the post will be the time that is counted. Switch your clock settings to GMT for the most accurate measure of the timing system that will be used.

In the case of inactive followers, if you login to view the thread you must submit a movement or else you will get left behind. It can be identified who has viewed the thread or who hasn't. No player will be able to move through the Northern exit if they view the thread and don't pass beyond BOTH scythes. Follows still apply after passing both scythes.

You each have about 17 hours to move through an available exit.

An image flashed up on the screen above everybody's heads on a screen. It seemed to show a visible map of the room.

The doors open after much delay. Time to move on.
The thread is now in lockdown. Actions after this point will not go through and movement changes will not be submitted. You may still move if you haven't already done so. All actions that are awaiting results will have the results posted.
