bixby grabs the pink shard. bixby: i mean really guys it took you guys forever to figure that thing out. DM: Bixby reaches in and takes hold of the pink shard, but his arm is now stuck in the mirror and the shard won't free itself. The shard continues to shimmer in the mirror of the opposite chamber.

Summary / Last Time on Monastery Here is the summary of where things stand for today (these events run from page 14 to 17): 1. Bixby places the wrong things in the statue's hand, even when the statue clicks when it's holding a shield. 2. Milkmire picks up the gold rings. He puts them on the statue, and the giant rug pulls away to reveal an alphabet puzzle on the floor. 3. Oliver thinks about stepping on a random letter, but he fears a terrible fate could come by stepping on the wrong one. He stares at a glass box in the corner of the chamber. 4. Tim finds a ghost mouse. It shows him something stuck under a letter "U". It's a skull. 5. Milkmire wanders through both rooms and solves the puzzle: 6. The crew stare in disbelief as Milkmire casually walks away. 7. The glass box swings open and a foreign text is revealed in two parts. 8. Tim combines the two documents and determines that they read as follows: I heard tell That warriors met in single combat Hildebrand and Hadubrand between two armies son and father prepared their armour made ready their battle garments girded on their swords the warriors, over their ring mail when they rode to battle. 9. Jif, upon hearing the tale, places a shield in both statues' hands. Both statues click and the wall that separates both rooms drops and reveals a two-sided mirror, reflecting the opposite chamber. In the mirror, both chambers can see a pink shard. 10. Bixby reaches for the shard, but the mirror grabs a hold of his arm and he is stuck. His fingers continue to grasp at the pink shard.

*Oliver grabs Bixby and tries to pull him out* Oliver: I'll save ya, little fella! DM: After trying really hard for about 4 seconds, Oliver gives up. Oliver: "You're stuck!" Bixby stares at Oliver. Oliver: "Did you know you're stuck?" Bixby rolls his eyes at Oliver. Oliver: "Stuck like a stuck thing." Oliver then wanders over to the statue. Bixby glares at him as Oliver leaves him there. *Oliver looks at the statue* Oliver: Don't ya know who I am!? Me name's Oliver James, bitch! Fookin do somethin!!! *Oliver punches the statue in the face* DM: Oliver barely punches the statue. He fears he might break his hand and while the wind up looked threatening, the land was a soft glance, at best. Oliver turned, red faced, and stared at the group. Oliver: "Take that! Statueeeeee!" Oliver held the end of the word for an unnecessarily long time. The group stops paying attention to Oliver. Oliver lets out an exhale and caresses his right hand with his left. Despite the soft, glancing blow, he still managed to bruise his knuckles. Oliver whispers to himself: "Why do I do these things?"

DM: Bixby tries to let go of the shard, but it seems to have gripped him. He feels a strange pull, and soon his body is being sucked in. Head to toes, Bixby has been pulled toward the shard, and onlookers outside see a strange wind in the mirror stirring up around him. Bixby: "Help me, you ninnyhammer stookies!" The mirror in the other chamber shows Bixby grasping strongly to the shard, but no wind. It just looks like a psychopath pretending he's getting annihilated by wind, while he just casually and quietly grips a hold of a pink rock.

*Oliver attempts to push Bixby completely in, and then jump in after him.* DM: Oliver sees Bixby falling into the mirror, and rushes to push him in. Except Oliver doesn't understand how mirrors work, and rushes at the mirror from the opposite side, effectively throwing himself into the very same mirror room that Bixby occupies. He turns to leave, but soon the wind too picks up and he is also swept up into the cyclone. He and Bixby scream in horror as Oliver reaches down for the shard to grab hold of and anchor himself as his legs are sucked into the cyclone. He and Bixby continue to stare at each other and scream.

Ooc: I'm so confused on where I am at in this story. You're standing in a chamber staring at a mirror, and inside that mirror are people holding on to a shard and swinging around in the wind.

*Albert attempts to punch the mirror as hard as he can. DM: Albert forgot that mirrors suck you in, and as he winds up a massive haymaker, he swings and gets pulled right into the chaos. Bixby lets go of the shard and begins to float. Oliver lets go and allows the wind to take him. Albert grabs the shard, sees the others have let go, and punches it, which sends him flying backward into the floating chaos. A dark cloud forms overhead, and lightning begins to cast through the room. Strike after strike, the thunderous roar blasting all around them as they continue to float in circles in the cyclone. A bolt strikes Oliver and carries its current through the others. The shard begins to glow.
