Hogwarts RPG Name: The Narrator | follow me; everything is all right. It definitely is one for the books, Ilvermornian. Home field advantage or not, you could consider yourself lucky to have met the Whomping Willow. Not everyone gets the chance, especially those who reside across the pond.
Surely, the moment is a memorable one for you and your fellow Americans, but the show doesn’t stop here.
Darkness enveloped you as you step in the tunnel, but the light and warmth of the bluebell flame you conjured did its job to help you navigate the seemingly endless path. Hopefully, the long walk helped you regain your strength. You will be needing it for your next task.
After a few minutes have passed, you reach the end of the tunnel with a lone spiral steps that will lead you upwards and toward a wooden trapdoor. As you reach it, you push it open and with a loud thud, you welcome yourself inside the historic Shrieking Shack. Dust was everywhere, bits and pieces of trash were scattered about, and rats the size of cats scurried off to hide as soon as they felt your presence. But before you could jump back to let out a scream, your eyes land on a scroll. Though it looked old, it definitely seemed out of place for a shack where everything’s centuries old, dirty, and smelly.
Unfurl the scroll, dear Ilvermornian, and continue on with your quest.
Good luck. *Click Me* Text Cut: Text Only Remember: things are not always as they seem,
And with odd trinkets this shack does teem.
In the time remaining, you must find your way
And locate two items that have gone astray;
One is held dear to our pigletted friends.
It can’t build a home, but a house it does amend
To every boy and girl cherished at the castle,
But you won’t find it without much hassle.
You’re looking for a lever that unlocks a door,
But to find the item you might need a particular score.
Try them all, and you will see. Something is off.
Dust covers this place like an infernal cough.
Now, our next item is from across the seas.
It can attach and reattach as you please.
It doesn’t write; it surely isn’t a quill,
And it’s small in size as well as beautiful.
Twist clockwise and nothing you’ll get,
But counter that, and you might regret
The noxious gas that fills your space
If you turn it too quickly, wood it would deface.
Good luck, champions. Find them both here.
Look with your eyes, hear with your ears.
Search up and down, and then high and low,
But don’t be too hasty or too slow. OOC: Here is a floor plan provided OOC to make it easier to RP your character exploring the shack. Feel free to be as creative as possible. *Click Me!* *Click Me!* |
