And then all that time, with the surviving cubs just forced to wait. Some cue, perhaps knowing that the others were reaching the end of their little extra trial, or an instruction from above, or both...

*Minerva made her way back to the camp-proper, returning to the fire on foot rather than using any magical way of shortening the little trip.

"Everyone? I have been told to show you how the others are doing."

That somewhat withdrawn manner was back, and while her voice was as inescapable as ever she did not blip the other cubs back to the fireside.

There was hardly any need, anyway. Most were milling about and would have to pass by to return to their tents, and the way she had been told to word her alert was clearly meant to pique curiosity rather than inspire foreboding.

So a gesture - no using the 'magic powder' this time - and the fire was simply showing the scenes as if the flames had become a hole in the world that pointed straight into the audience's perspective on the hapless trio had been captured in by the tentacles.

Even rushing by would be no real relief; not only did the fire show a different victim depending on the angle viewed, but the sound was bell-clear and the fabric of the tents much too thing to drown out those sounds.

\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPetal, receiving the same and yet somehow worse, as if the plant that had gotten her (in place of all Jake's lovingly camouflaged choices before his own) was somehow far more an experienced hand at drawing out the rape, torture, and consumption of helpless cubs.
And at yet another angle was \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPity, who must have found a subspecies all her own. The way that that view lurched fitfully between the precociously sexy little tweenager's brutal, skull-invading tentacle rape and the memories it seemed to be very literally stirring up for all to enjoy.

*Minerva had that look again: the one of an artificial goddess who would be crying, or even being sick, were it not for the control she was allowed to have over her avatar. And Cybele, of course, just smiling and rocking on her heels, the monstrous scenes reflected in those cheerful golden eyes.

                                                                                                                                                    


Only once the horror show was finally over did *Minerva actually blip anyone: including the unfortunate victims of the challenge.

All at the same time. Daniel, Connie, and Poly were moved to the fire, while on the other side appeared Pity, Jake, and Petal. All three stark naked and lain out on the dusty, flattened-carpet ground to lurch back to life simultaneously, the group once more trapped (but not paralyzed) in the circle in front of their tents (and the empty seventh) as *Minerva began to speak.

"It is time for the results of your most recent challenge," *Minerva said, making a little gesture so that Cybele could step up beside her. Someone had clearly decided that a cheerful sheep was far better for delivering the numbers than a sympathetic fox girl.

"Daniel won!" Cybele announced, without any preamble. "It was super close, but at the last, Poly met a tentacle monster and ever so nearly got eaten, and that set her back a tiny bit!"

Cybele looked from one to the other as she spoke, before addressing Connie: "And Connie came second!"

And then it was onto the unfortunates.

"Oh but Pity, Jake, and Petal all got caught, and the trap-plants kept them until they had to be revived... that means they lose a Life Point. While Daniel wins one!"

With that declaration, the numbers appear; the shining white +1 for Daniel and the three, black -1s for Petal, Jake, and Pity.

"I think the decision, come the day after tomorrow, is going to be super close!"


Cybele was still smiling brightly when *Minerva gestured her sister back, a gentle, but somewhat awkward, "Thank you Cybele," accompanying that got the happiest face out of the slightly smaller lamb.

"Everyone... the two symbols between which you must choose next are here."

Another little gesture, and the dust of their campground scattered close by the fire. The flattened carpet exposed formed the two symbols, and seemed to repel any motes and transported cavern dust that tried to stray back in to obscure them.

"Finally... Petal, Pity? The two of you have the chance to open an orb. The following are your questions..."

Because of course it would be from among the most traumatized that would have that chance.

(Summary/Key points:
 - *Minerva eventually used the fire to display the unfortunates' experiences with the
   tentacle trap plants.
 - The three who made it through were not forced to watch (unless you feel like being
   paralyzed with horror or whatever other reason) but it was not possible to avoid seeing
   at least part of each cub's fate, in passing. Nor did tents block any of the sounds.
 - Cybele read off the results, with Daniel winning a Life Point and Pity, Jake, and Petal losing one.
 - Symbol vote is, of course, up. Please indicate your choices!
 - Jake's tentacle experience: https://inkbunny.net/s/3589246#commentid_9067848
 - Petal's tentacle experience: https://inkbunny.net/s/3594622
