[❊ CYOA ❊] Human Studies: Superstitions [❊ CYOA ❊] [- Thread Located Here -]
[- 822 words -]
[- 2 RP Points Earned -]
[- 4 / 20 RP Points For Event -] The Human World.
It was a place whispered by her ancestors, be it through fear or frustration of the beings on that side. The trees were filled with the results of the human world, the pain and suffering and the death that the humans caused day in and day out. The Hamadryad knew that they needed to journey to the human world and protect their home, but that didn't mean they would like it.
Ever since Nerisei was a little ghoul, she was told about her role in both Halloween and the Human World. She would one day journey out, away from the protective embrace of the Grotto. As a small ghoul, the Grotto was there to protect her. Yet, the Grotto needed its own protectors, and once she grew she would be part of that team. Nerisei knew she would be there, eventually, after long hours of training and going to an academy to hone her skills.
She just didn't think the opportunity for it to happen would be so soon.
Some unknown force led her to the sign-ups for the Halloween class, and she really wasn't too nervous. No, she wanted to see for herself what the fuss was about, and understand a bit more the world outside of their home. That was, after all, why she was at the academy.
As she filled out the paperwork in Professor Winter's office, she listened to the directions carefully. It seemed simple enough, finding out what these superstitions were with the humans and documenting them accordingly. Maybe she would even find such things related to the trees, meaning she could take advantage of it once she graduated and was stationed in the Human World.
The rest was a bit of a blur. With her passport collected and her glamour on, she was thrust into the world of the humans without any further hand-holding. She knew she was on a time limit, but the voices of the humans and the creatures running around the street made it easy to move along. So, Nerisei decided she would stick outside and see if she could not only complete the task, but also see how the humans interacted with nature with her own eyes. So she continued to move OUTSIDE.
It was time to focus on the task at hand. Despite the fact that there was a forest near by, it seemed that most were content in their cleared land (which was very well treated). Nerisei had a feeling there would be no ill-will toward the plants, so she instead took to watching the humans closely. There were some interesting actions they all were making, and some that were just concerning.
The first human she spotted appeared nervous. Remembering how superstitions were described, Nerisei knew she had to get closer. As she ventured down the path, she noticed that the human was tying knots into a handkerchief. It was so strange, and no real logic was behind it. The human just stood there, tying and untying, and Nerisei determined she should move on.
As she was walking, Nerisei suddenly felt like she was making eye contact with a human in front of her. It was only for a second, but she could tell as soon as they froze. Stilling herself, she found herself unable to breath when suddenly, they began to circle her. She watched as they circled nine times at almost a run, unable to move just in case they tried to walk into her. Instead, they seemed to let out a sigh of a breath before rushing off, leaving her alone.
Still stood still, Nerisei realized humans were still walking by. One caught her eye, but she was uncertain for a long moment until it clicked. Their clothing was on backward...and inside out...and they were walking in reverse! It startled her so much that she was able to move again, and she rushed away.
Finally, finally she seemed to catch something. A human was walking by a cemetery, and they seemed to take a deep breath and hold it while walking a little quicker. Tilting her head, Nerisei figured maybe they believed that they needed to ignore a smell, or they could sneak by spirits? It seemed as if something was going on, for as soon as they passed the cemetery, the human took a deep breath and began to breath normally.
Suddenly, she was being called back to the portal. Looking at the humans one last time, she shook her head before rushing back and getting home.
As she arrived, she was told the instructions for how to submit a report to Professor Winter. It didn't seem too difficult, so Nerisei decided to get it out of the way and headed to the Professor's office. Settling down at a spare table with her report, Nersei began to describe what she saw when she had a chance to see the human world.

[❊ CYOA ❊] Navigate the Maize Maze [❊ CYOA ❊] [- Thread Located Here -]
[- 663 words -]
[- 2 RP Points Earned -]
[- 8 / 20 RP Points For Event -] Nerisei was curious. She couldn't help it. The maze was tall, looming, and seemed ever so frightening. It reminded her of the woods of her home, with dark shadows and endless paths that seemed to be darkness at the end. She couldn't help but move close, examine the materials, and get excited enough to venture inside. Maybe it was a mistake, but she was never one to fear getting lost on her own.
After all, there always was an exit to be found.
As she entered the maze, there were two options. Two very simple, yet very important options. With a slow breath, Nerisei went left.
Almost immediately, a slow moan sounded in the maze, low and full of sorrow. Nerisei couldn't suppress the shiver that ran up her spine, and she paused at the cross road to listen. When the sound finally died away, she let out the breath she was holding and wondered how authentic this really was. She decided to skip the left path and continue forward.
As the path continued on, the hamadryad noticed a boil up ahead, one that was sobbing on a rock. As she neared, the boil seemed to wail louder, and she wondered if this was the source of the sound she had heard earlier. The big question now was if she should ignore the boil or attempt to reassure him. It seemed as if he was keen to ignore her, and so Nerisei felt that she would do the same. She moved as far as she could to the side of the path, passed the boil, and continued forward.
The moaning suddenly stopped, and Nerisei could hear the sound of running water. She took a glance over her shoulder, but all that was behind her was darkness. Shivering again, she faced forward and continued to walk, this time seemingly a great distance. Finally, she sighted something different up ahead, and approached the artificial pond that sat in the middle of her path.
There were two options, it seemed, based on her observations. In the middle of a pond was a cup, one that she was directed to drink from thanks to a sign. However, there also was a sword, and a place for it to be placed within the pond. The question was, which was she suppose to do?
The water did look crystal clear and pretty nice. The more she looked at it, the more thirsty she became, until Nerisei determined she would drink from the cup.
Suddenly, she was assaulted with the vision of vines. They moved around her body, wrapping around her head like a cocoon, and began to wind closer together. She tried to not panic, but the lack of control over the vines caused her breath to hitch, as her body began to prickle in pain from thorns. They weren't actually touching her, but the feeling was there. However, the vines soon faded away and she realized it was all a vision.
Then, she heard the voice say "Go East".
Taking a deep breath, she debated following the path suggested. The vines didn't actually hurt her, so why should do ignore the directions. So she decided to Go East.
Nothing dangerous appeared, but she found a dead end full of glowing stones. They sparkled and hummed, and she couldn't help but take a stone. Righting herself up once more, she realized the maze seemed to be expanding around her. Was this another illusion? It seemed to tower above her head as if it wanted to swallow her whole, or that she was shrinking. In fact, as she glanced around at the pile of stones, they were towering. Was she the size of a gnome?
Suddenly, she saw a path to the side, one that was perfect for her size. Determined, she rushed to the path and followed it through the darkness. She made it out, but it seemed her size was permanent. There was no certainty on how long this would last, but it would take some time to get home. Eventually, as she neared the dorms, her size returned to normal, and she swore she would never touch a glowing stone again.
