Trial of Flight: M'Foxy

System Admin:Seta watches from afar, silent and immovable as one of the statues from their halls. They witness the crash. They witness the rise. Whether they also bear witness to the turmoil within M'Foxy is unknown. Like this world, like this place, the scene that plays out between the player and her Parasite is both real and not-real. Literal and metaphorical. A dream within a dream, a game within a game. At what point does it circle all the way around and become reality?

If a tree falls in a forest and nobody is around to hear it, does it still make a sound?

Seta's mask reveals nothing.

Color fades from the watercolor world as if M'foxy's joy is seeping it away, the small body of the Pidove cupped safe against her body.

"You are unbound," says Seta simply. "You have passed the Trial of Flight."

The gray pushes close, engulfing M'Foxy, Pidove, and perhaps even the specter of Theron, and then a flash of vermillion as you find yourself back in the hall you started in. Back at the crossroads.

Red gates fill the sky, and Seta is nowhere to be found, though his words echo in your mind long after you leave the halls.

"Nothing leaves the Everworld unchanged."
