I stand in the dark, it surrounds me completely.
I can see nothing but a black void stretching in every direction.
The light has been stolen, sucked away.
Without it I am lost.
I need to get the light back!

I cannot see in the darkness, but I know where I stand. The rough stone presses against my feet. It is cold. Ever since my light was stolen, a chill has settled in the air.

Hmm, and something above this angular entrance seems to be radiating heat, I don't think I want to get too close.

I could probably squeeze through the opening if I wanted to. It's pretty tight though, and there is more of this strange dry powdery coating travelling down the passage.
>>510430
I follow the powdery substance further along the floor, it seems to travel parallel to a wall. At the end of a trail is another wall.

The ticking seems to be echoing from a metal grate low down on the wall.

there seems to be some sort of console embedded in the wall here as well. There is some sort of thin slot along one side. Since all light has been stolen I cannot see the screen. Maybe I have something in my pockets that can help?

As i get closer I notice the ticking isn't uniform. Sometimes it repeats rapidly, and sometimes it just stops. Occasionaly an odd click or clank echoes up from the vent.

I travel along the right wall until I reach the end.

I stub my toe on some sort of pedastal. Its surface is some sort of stone like the wall. The top contains a circle of a cold metalic material. There seems to be another one diectly above it but I can't quite reach...

There is a damaged portion of the pillar. It crumbles a bit under my touch and it smells like smoke.

I backtrack to the strnage powdery substance on the floor.

If it spells anything It must be in another language because it just feels like splatter marks to me.

I follow the trail until it mysteriously stops beneath the wall. I feel further up along the wall but cannot find any further sign of the substance. I do however find some interesting engravings upon the wall.

I examine the engravings further. they apear to be some sort of spiralling pattern and a strange twisting symbol.

It apears to be some similar substance to that on the floor maybe paint? It's coating some sort of engraving, obscuring it. I can't quite reach high enough to know how far up it goes.
>>510458
I examine the northe wall. I find two more pillars.

The walls in this room are very oddly slanted, except for this back wall, which seems to be the only surface besides the floor that isn't curved somehow.

I drag the table (Curse its name) over to the north wall. It feels pretty stable, I stand on top of it and feel at the engraving above me.

Most of it is covered by some sort of paint, it is very hard to make anything out. Its some sort of...eye?...symbol in the center a thick oval of stone.

I can sense the curve of the cieling just out of my reach.

I carefully feel around the dark room.

The east wall is covered in little cracks, and the crevice. The hot round thing above the crevice is spherical. I believe it must have been a lightbulb before all the light was taken away.

The north wall is covered in engravings. I can make niether head nor tales of them, but one part looks like a little sun? It gives me hope.
MIRANDA is written on the bottom left of the wall. I think I vaguely remember someone named Miranda...She was a hyperactive little kid, always laughing and jumping around. God she annoyed me.
There is a button high up on the wall. I haven't pressed it yet, I have no idea what it might do.

along the west wall I found a lanyard with a little card attatched. The engraving on the wall next to it says For U and is surrounded by hearts...
There is also an odd splatter of something I can't quite identify, it's not paint...but it smells terrible.

The south wall is fairly unremarkable.

While I was looking around there were some strange sounds in the other room. Im not sure what they were, they were pretty faint. I am fairly sure I heard metal hitting stone at one point though...

I leaned the table against the corner when I was done with it so it wouldn't get in the way.

The card on the end of the lanyard appears to be an ID card like the one Dad wore to work. If I remember that my dad used to use his to open the front door and he would always put it in his computer when he worked.

I can feel some raised letters on it

Maybe, but there are some things to consider.

All the light was stolen away. No light means no sight. Mostly I've been picturing the world through feeling about.

I could see the monster. Even though most of the time it was just a fuzzy blob I could SEE IT. Unless the place Im in makes very odd security devices...

Ugh, I just hope there aren't any more of them.

I just put the ID card into the computer. It seemed to work fine, don't know why it would activate a security device, not sure what it would activate at all. It really sounded like a starting screen, I haven't heard of the ID cards being used to store programs or functions, but I never did pay attention when my dad was working.

The new thing...Im not sure about it. I remember it got really loud when the creature was closing in that first time. I ignored it then because I was about to get eaten...but...Im not sure if it's connected to the computer. I'd have to examine it to find out.

Wait. There's no light. But the miniature Ur-quan thing you killed was luminescent? Are the remains still glowing? If so, you could use the corpse as a light source! At least to read the computer or something.

not quite, it was seeable, but it didn't light up the surroundings.

I think you have misunderstood me.

ALL light was stolen, even things that normally emit light, like lightbulbs and computer screens, darkness. It's like being blind.

That thing wasn't luminescent, it was defying the nature of the universe, or at least this small bit of it that has lost its light...

As a general rule, If it's glowing it's something felt beyond just touch.

For example the strange feeling I got when the monster appeared in the room, or the odd pull of the thing in the vent.

Or the heat of the lightbulb in room 1

So, with that out of the way, should I be fiddling around with this computer or do you have another idea?

"Hello?" I ask, no response

I feel around inside the vent, there seems to be some sort of ring, and a sharp knife in here.

That knife would have been useful a couple minutes ago...

Well....that was interesting. That sounded alot like Dad, but it didn't seem to come from the computer...or anywhere really. It was like I was hearing his voice in my head.

What did he say again...something about sealing the chambers?
