Story Arc #9 A Haunted House Party
You Search The Forest Grounds
Taking in your surroundings
This is a collaborative ‘choose your own’ fiction story. You can also head back to the previous chapter, ‘A Haunted House Party’ or ‘You Journey Onto the Forest Path’, also by Novus Grey. Or find out how to contribute to the ongoing story here.
Before moving on, you take your time navigating the surrounding environment.
Along the surrounding trees are banners bearing a pair of eyes overlooking a peculiar abstract shape in the middle as their design.
The chalice where you came from is on a short table with a red and yellow velvet cover on top.
It seems like someone was preparing some sort of ritual in this particular area relating to the chalice but swiftly ran off upon your arrival.
You were too dazed and confused to acknowledge this happening which confirms the notion that whoever summoned you to this place was either uncertain of the results of their actions or frightened by the results.
Either way, their participation ended as swiftly as you came.
You notice something else on the ground nearly hidden by the leaves revealing itself to be a key.
It shines a dim glow in your hands which are covered in specks of dirt from the ground.
Exactly where this key goes is just another mystery lurking beyond the scope of your earthly understanding.
You walk about to each of the edges near the banners but fail to find anything else of interest and so you return to the center.
From this point, you need to make a decision.
Do you…
You may contribute to this story with your own paths as you would like, however, please label them as such to distinguish them from my arc.
