So Afraid: Ragecraft 2 Episode 124

  • Published on

The deaths sidebar opens at Scoti_Garbidis 144 and BasketMC 107. Team B.S. is still in the last of the three nightmares, the dark one with void fog, where they have to hide whenever the screams start. They begin by stashing what they found last time. "I put the emerald in this chest," one of them says, on the theory that they "probably won't come back up after we go through."

Dead end, dead end

The plan is simple: check every doorway, every hallway, every gravel patch. Almost all of them go nowhere. "It is just a dead end like you called it." "Found a spawner." One chest gives up a diamond pick, and Basket is soon swinging a Diamond Pickaxe. They wall off stretches of void as they go, and the mobs keep turning up behind them anyway. "These guys really are confusing me. They block us off."

The status effects don't help. Basket's inventory screen keeps showing Speed, Absorption and Blindness, and the darkness flickers off and on. "I just have my inventory open and I watch for when the blindness is actually gone and doesn't come back."

A chest of odd loot

One chest holds an Enchanted Book with Unbreaking III. Another has a sword called Demonslayer (Sharpness III, Smite I, +6 Attack Damage), a Diamond Helmet, a Ghast Tear, and a Light-Bending Potion that gives Invisibility but also Mining Fatigue III and Slowness II. "That's kind of neat," one of them says, "except we can't do anything and you move slow."

Try the beds

After enough rooms they start marking them off. "Alright, we can mark this as like done." "Been there, done that." Then a new idea: "You think we have to go and get in the beds and like then we'll just wake up like this is all a dream?" The beds are back in the very first room. They try one, and the game answers "You can only sleep at night." Nearby are the same signs from last time about the fog and the screams of terror.

Into the void fog

Digging around, one of them finds a room they hadn't seen. "I found another room, over this way, by accident." There is more void fog in it, and an Enderman. "Oh, get off my friend, you jerk." Chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was slain by Enderman," and the sidebar goes to 145.

Basket isn't far behind. Cobwebs fill Basket's screen as the mobs close in ("I'm stuck on a web"), and then comes the death screen and the line "BasketMC was slain by Psychopath." The sidebar reads 108. Basket comes back in the stone respawn room with the SCOTI and BASKET signs and a sign that says "Put pressure plates down before we start playing."

There's a bit of bad news on top. "I had a emerald on me," one of them says. "We can get back there," comes the answer. The credits roll and nothing plays after them.
