So I guess we know now what happens when you sacrifice three corpses to the tower.

Everyone might just want to stay out of the tower in the arena until this is cleared up. If you go in, you wind up in a mirror boss fight with a shadow version of yourself.

If you leave and go back in, it keeps happening. I wound up fighting mine four times just to make sure. But on the plus side, if you beat it there's a chance it'll drop a memory charm. I got three of them, all from, like, alternate universe mes. I don't know if that's universal or not. Anyone else have data they'd like to submit?

Something I need to run by you, bro.


((OOC: After consulting with the mods: A memory charm definitely drops after the first fight; on each subsequent fight, there's a 50% chance of a charm dropping.))

i beat minr. Fought my own shadows befre. Sry, jsut, it freaked me out pretu bady.

It was srta esier ti fight it handto-had, instead in mt head, while it's plling out my wort emotings, forcing thm on me.

((Translation: I beat mine. I've fought my own shadows before. Sorry, it just really freaked me out pretty badly.

It was actually sorta easier to fight it hand-to-hand, instead of in my head, while it's pulling out all of my worst emotions and forcing them on me.))

[fracturedsoul]

((I've had to fight my own shadows before. I fight shadows to eat normaly. But it's a bit different. The shadows I mean are negative emotions.

It's just, coming here, not having to see them? Deal with them? Best thing ever. It coming bak? Even nearly? Nightmare.

[fracturedsoul]

Oh. I see, I guess.

Try not to worry about it? These probably aren't the same as what you had to deal with back home. They're more likely some special-made baddies just for Rakuen.

I thought it ws my doubt moking me. But, in my world, if i'm fihting my own emotions in my hed, then I could be hurting everyone I jnow, it'll be controllling my body.

((I thought it was my doubt mocking me. But, in my world, if I'm fighting my own emotions in my head, then I could be hurting everyone I know, it'll be controlling my body.

But yeah, I should just chill.))

[fracturedsoul]

That sounds pretty intense. You must appreciate this little vacation from that shit.

And if it really bothers you that much, at least this only seems to happen inside the towers.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

Yeah, I hated home. almost lodt my cool in the towr, but wasn't hard to beat it a least. Can be syre I'm avoidng the tower.
