Elizabeth | Persona

[Phase I]

[ This is such a fascinating new landscape, and one that has such an admirable goal. Elizabeth, unlike many, is entirely too pleased with the broken down surroundings. There is no reason to question the whys and wherefores, as she's happy to embrace whatever comes her way. By the time she's quite nearly scaled an impressive trash heap, the rain makes it all the more treacherous.

One brief stumble on her part leads to the huge pile collapsing without warning. She goes sliding, scrambling to escape. It's a near thing, but she throws herself from the heap to avoid the sinkhole by a slim margin.

How invigorating. [ She stands up, and bends over to try to dust her knees off. ] An irresistible challenge turned pitfall, only the wariest could possibly avoid such an ignominious fate.


[Phase III]

[ For a moment there, Elizabeth was quite impressed with the nature of this challenge. Such a cruel deathtrap! The unstoppable, inexorable movement towards utter annihilation must be how humanity felt all the time, and it would no doubt be such an adventure to try to escape. It's really quite exciting from a certain point of view, particularly from her perch on top of a random jumble of junk. Soon, perhaps, she would need to flee from such a terrible end.

But then it jams.

She waits, kicking her feet idly back and forth.

Oh my, how shamefully embarrassing. [ The comment is calmly said out to the air, but then she looks around to see who else might be just as disappointed as she is. It starts up again, and her face lights up, but... no.

Once more, it jams.

That's just unreasonable. Now who would be able to enjoy the great thrill of attempting and perhaps even succeeding escape?

Do you think that we may have been sent down here to repair this?
