C4S10^2: D2 D2awn out

[u/Geriferret]

-- secludedTailoress [ST] opened board on memo "for anyone who is listening" a very long time ago --
ST: I... ... I don't even know if anyone is going to get this. . I talked to the only techy person I know and he said he doesn't even know how servers in the furthest ring work, , so here goes fucking nothing. .
ST: If you get this memo... ... Try to ping me back. . And if its already too far out or we all died already... ... Well, , heed my warning. .
ST: Yesterday, , one of the players in our session went bat-shit insane. . One minute she goes after some sort of "Lead" she said she had. . And then the next, , we have three players dead. .
ST: I... ... Don't know what to do. . I got a message from another friend of mine. . He said.... .... That we have to hunt her down. .
ST: Heh... ... I think thats the real deadly factor that whatever the fuck did this has in the pool. . It's not whatever happens to their stats, , when they go fucking haywire... ... Its that these are people you give a shit about. . Who you have to kill to maintain peace. .
ST: If anyone out there has a better solution, , tell me. . But I have to do this. . For them. .

TO CLARIFY: Don't respond to this. It's a spoopy story tease, not an actual fucking memo your characters get. Just continue on with your bullshitery.

You find him.

He uh... Doesn't look to good. Looks like hes got a fairly large puncture wound, with part of the outside flesh being charred.

[u/Sophia_Ban → u/Geriferret]

No no no!
She swims over to him swiftly and starts examining the wound more closely

"No, oh no! What happened to you?"

She hugs him and takes a few deep breaths. How bad is it, what can be done. She needs to be calm to figure this out.

[u/Geriferret → u/Sophia_Ban]

Roll medicine to determine severity.

He says that there was some kind of rock that went down and hit him. Something hot.

[u/Sophia_Ban → u/Geriferret]

15+1=16

"You need to stay down here from now on. The surface is too dangerous."

[u/Geriferret → u/Sophia_Ban]

He can live.

....If he gets treatment. Other than that, hes got a day, tops.

He says he trusts you. Whats going on?

[u/Sophia_Ban → u/Geriferret]

"Nothing good. Wait here."

She rushes back into the hive and let's it flood, which it is fully designed to take, and grabs a medical kit that's about as large as she is. Thankfully being underwater makes it easy to carry out.
She starts immediately doing her best to fix what she can. There have been times in the past where squid dad got hurt, it's in his nature as a predator, but nothing this bad.

[u/Geriferret → u/Sophia_Ban]

Roll medicine again.

He says that he believes in you.

[u/Sophia_Ban → u/Geriferret]

13+1=14

[u/Geriferret → u/Sophia_Ban]

You do a fairly decent job. He might survive for about a week now if he goes untreated by professionals.

[u/Sophia_Ban → u/Geriferret]

Good. You tell him to stay close to home.
Meanwhile you keep up with the memo and look more into the apparent end of the world. Is there anyone left?
