July 2, 201212 yr Stupid old man. At least his healing makes up for his lack of ability as a leader. Maybe I should just pick him up and throw him at that button - NO. Erik shakes his head. No. There's more to life than brute strength and alcohol. And besides, I'd have him trying to convert me all the rest of my life. I've seen him going at Sorrow - I'm not sure even death would stop his zealotry. Best to just call him sir and go along with him. The chances of this button out of all of them being trapped isn't that high anyway. "I meant the corridors in general - this seems to easy. Unless those Commerz people decided to get clever and overthink things." The italics stuff is Erik thinking. Edited July 2, 201212 yr by Myrddyn
July 2, 201212 yr Author Erik, mutinous thoughts plagueing his mind, presses the far button. A click is hear, follow by a fizzle... Suddenly, a burst of color and fizz shoots out, zooming all over the corridor. It goes haywire, letting out extravagantly painful bursts of colorful fire - frying Pretzel, Erik, and Mizuki for 5 damage each! The button was rigged with a fireworks mechanism! Due to the fact this isn't what you expected, I didn't run Daxus's action. DISCLAIMER: The firework trap was planned from the very beginning. Irony stinks, eh?

July 2, 201212 yr Author Afer staggering backwards from the unwelcome display of fireworks, the party presses the previous button.
July 2, 201212 yr Author Daxus presses the far button. The party sees a faint glimpse of the room ahead as the farthest door opens! ...Only for another door in front of it to slam down. Their hopes dashed, Daxus turns around to see he is indeed trapped.
July 2, 201212 yr Author Daxus presses the last button, only for a familiar hissing to be heard. he ducks and takes cover in the corner of his enlosure, but it's simply too small: Another firwork springs forth, spewing firey blue sparks, zooming and ricchotting like a drunken hare.

July 2, 201212 yr "Aaah! I say again: 'Bloody Commerz!' Is Ayla trying to get us killed?! Press the button closest to your far door. Pretzel, can you heal me through the wall?"
July 2, 201212 yr Author "Aaah! I say again: 'Bloody Commerz!' Is Ayla trying to get us killed?! Press the button closest to your far door. Pretzel, can you heal me through the wall?" QM Note: Err... That was the explodey-button. And you're suggesting they press it again. You must really hate your party, Daxus.
July 2, 201212 yr QM Note: Err... That was the explodey-button. And you're suggesting they press it again. You must really hate your party, Daxus. OOC: How many fireworks can be in one button? We have pressed every button, so the correct one must have been one that had fireworks in it.
July 2, 201212 yr Author OOC: How many fireworks can be in one button? We have pressed every button, so the correct one must have been one that had fireworks in it. QM Note: Or you could've missed the solution.
July 2, 201212 yr Author t Daxus's prompting, the party runs as daxus presses the button. The exits open.. only for a second barricade to slam down in front of them. They could never outrun the clever mechanism.
July 2, 201212 yr Author "Press the button directly beside you." Mizuki jams the button bsider her... only to see it does nothing.
July 2, 201212 yr Author QM Note: After a zany sequence of events, I once again find myself exiled to the pictureless computer. I'll be back on the correct computer within the hour I hope.
July 2, 201212 yr "Daxus, go back to the end of the hall and press the last button." "Scratch the former plan. Daxus, go to the end of the hall and wait. We will push the third button in the row on left. The one preceding the trap one. When we do that, we will go to the end at which time you will push the last button on your side if all goes well."

QM Note: You sure you want to do that...? You did state the correct solution. If you are wondering, the puzzle is designed to not let the right pass. I'm just finishing up the next set. Edited July 2, 201212 yr by Endgame
July 2, 201212 yr So Daxus will be stuck in there?!? I thought there may be a button once he's out with which he could get the rest of us out. Fine, let's go with the first plan. It's better to have three people out than just one. I heal everyone to full health.
