REGINA Color: green (Philosophy) Page writings: "I try" written over and over again and words like "Help", "I take over an empty throne", "Who am I" and "Who is he" Initial Introduction: 4 doors marked as follows: "love", "LOVE", "fear", "despair"--likely representative themes of what's behind the doors with a task needing to be completed. Door Chosen: "despair"--falling through space surrounded by stars. the stars burned to the touch without damaging the skin. taking up the stars slowed the descent. enough stars caused a complete stop. used a satchel to collect enough stars. throwing a star down showed a glimpse of destruction. a pattern was in the stars, I thought it looked like a person so I finished the figure while standing on a star I placed. my legs felt like they were melting off the whole time. I also saw more and more scenes of destruction, just watching it unfold (at least they were largely natural occurrences). falling off the star again and looking up at it, I saw something indescribably beautiful. sweat and tears collected. time slowed to a stop. these droplets became ink, and I used that ink along with the pen we were given to write "Hello, World." I received a response. see also: the first Public Missive. I was shoved out of the sky and back into the library. After: we were given access to supplies and able to write out the place we would be living in for the next while. Regina says she thinks she used to be a queen.
Update: Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru went through the "Fear" door and encountered something they had to fight. Gojo Satoru claims to have met "a ghost" who said their heart has been put somewhere to keep it safe(?) and has since been lost.
Azul Ashengrotto has information regarding one of the doors, an office that centered around one of the loves. Will write more when I get the full details.
Update: Regina has run another Scenario. Details to come.
[updated at some point Day 11:]
2nd Scenario: The premise is to present various truths and obtain bronze, silver, or gold charms on a bracelet. The metal depended on the "worth" of the truth or secret that was given. The bracelets also had 3 heart charms that could be crushed and blowed upon to force someone to admit to a truth or secret if asked, whether they wanted to or not. Conditions for winning: the most gold charms used, but also appears to have had a condition involving contentious or conflictive truths. After: Philosophy and Arts & Rec won this Scenario. The reward was fulfilling the request for 1 item for Arts & Rec and 2 items for Philosophy. Emet-Selch left the decision of the item to me, as I obtained the most gold in our group. I allowed Rook Hunt, who is new, to make the choice instead. Other Information: Regina showed herself again and was more willing to linger to speak with us, answering some questions. She acknowledged that using her "symbolic form" is simply better for now, out of shyness and because it expends less energy. This is not so different from how Constellations of lower ranks also conserve themselves, to put into perspective of what I know. When I mentioned it was good that she had the energy to speak with us and that we had a limited amount of information, she acknowledged that they are also limited in what they can offer us. I suspect some kind of rules in place about information exchange, again, not unlike Constellations. Asking about how the people here were chosen, she responded that they simply were desperate and begged until someone answered. The ones who answered are the ones who were brought here. Mentioning Joseph's statement on the matter (that he doesn't know), there seemed to be an air of... distaste? and she called him eccentric.
Regina emphasized that the Princess taken by the Darkness was "everything to everyone"
