Mark decides this is what’s right for him. Grimble pulls a scythe out of thin air and does a complicated maneuver before slicing it through him. You and Murphy wince, but it passes through him like light. Afterwards, he floats into the air and begins to hum with energy. He seems quite surprised, then he starts to shout in pain. His body is shimmering between a human-state and a liquid state. He drops back to the ground. Somehow he’s in one piece and splashing all around you at the same time.
Something’s wrong. You don’t know how you know, but you can tell. The process isn’t working correctly. Mark’s young body is contorting in odd ways, his teeth are gritted in pain. You realize at this moment that you forgot to ask about the Key. It doesn’t matter now though, you know just what to do with it. You pull it out and point it at Mark. A needle shoots out of it at him. Grimble says, “What are you doing?! Where did you get that?”
Mark recovers from the pain. You turn the Key as if it were in a lock. He raises up to his feet. Liquid swirls around him. His body is continuously dissolving into silver liquid and then reforming itself. His eyes are silver.
Grimble is shocked. “That’s- but- how are you doing that?!” Her voice changes to anger. “That’s not how it was supposed to work!!”
She attacks you suddenly, but the key remains in place. Murphy acts quickly, stabbing her with his bayonet. She screams, “HE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BROKEN TOO!” and then she runs away into another dark hallway. The building around you begins to crumble as soon as she leaves. Mark forms the crumbling pieces into a liquid platform. “Haha, this is amazing!” he shouts. You see a rocky desert where the building is crumbling away, racing past at unbelievable speed. Mark yells, “Come on! Let’s get out of here!”
[You think for a moment about what the Key might be able to do to you…]
