AVISPA: Cease puzzling nightmares, yes.
All things considered, things are going great! You've successfully prototyped your sprite once, your lusus is still alive and protected in your hive, you have more puzzles than you could ever ask for, and you'd finally decided to rest. After some planning, you'd decided that some exploration of LOSAR was in order and after plotting out a path, a plan, and preparing back-up plans for your plan the only remaining thing to do was to sleep.
So you slept. That was your first mistake.
Your eyes opened to neither the golden, bright moon you'd heard about nor the darkened, twilight moon. Instead, you are somewhere you'd never imagined even in your wildest dreams. Bright, blue skies with fluffy white clouds. You stand before an endless, clean landscape of white and black with green trees. You've never, ever laid eyes on living trees, though as awing as they are the skies above draw your eyes to them and don't allow you to look away.
That was your second mistake.
You'd only seen clear, blue skies for only a few moments twice before, when the darkened clouds you were so familiar with parted for only a moment. But the clouds here were fascinating, amazing, and... there... was something in them. You couldn't tear your eyes away, especially when the blur of a troll appeared.
That was your third mistake.
The troll hopped around, making short work of what you assumed to be Imps. She was using her arms, no, her sleeves as weapons to utterly decimate her foes. There was something familiar, something that made you think you knew her but you just couldn't place it. Sleeves for weapons, crescent horns, no glasses, and a very, very rage-driven fighting style. As you watched, you were paying so much attention to the clouds that you don't watch where you're going...
That was your fourth mistake.
You sit bolt upright, woken pre-emptively from your slumber, and the very first thing you do is open a memo. This was puzzling.
-- apiaryCryptonaut [AC] RIGHT NOW opened memo that dream was scary! --
AC: I h4d 4 very... puzzling 4nd confusing dre4m!
AC: It w4sn't on the... um, wh4t were the... n4mes of the moons.

AC: OH! 4nd I s4w... 4 troll, but I... don't know who it... w4s, not 4t 4ll.

4nd they smell better... th4n 4 lot of... things 4round, they do.
They're 4 little sticky... though, 4nd th4t's icky.
But otherwise they're just... honeycombs, they 4re, yes.
Sometimes the bees used... to live in them... but now they're gone.
But oh, yes, skulls!
The skulls 4re 4ll... kinds, they are, yes!
You start grabbing holding up the skulls to yourself as you explain, making sure to remember their little intricacies and details that you don't want to miss.

no subject
They're like, um, gu4rdi4ns?
Mine took c4re of... me since I w4s... re4lly sm4ll, she did!
She's protected me, yes.
Every troll h4s 4... different lusus th4t c4res... for them when they're... young, until they're older.
I don't know how... they're chosen though, no.
Or m4ybe how we're... chosen, possibly, m4ybe, yes?
4nd um, the bees... don't re4lly like 4nyone... except for me 4nd... my lusus 4t 4ll.
But when I entered... the g4me they stopped... liking me or 4nyone.
So now they're locked... 4w4y so they don't... hurt 4nyone 4g4in, no.
They're the size of... um, well, my puzzle... cubes, they 4re, yes.
Still 4 little sm4ll... but when there 4re... 4 lot of them, m4ybe.
It's not re4lly s4fe.
They weren't very nice... 4ctu4lly now th4t I... think 4bout it, no.
My lusus is nice... but the bees weren't.
no subject
lIke fAmIly
oh I.. see..
thAt seems very problemAtIc
but At leAst you mAnAged to lock them AwAy, then..
It's A shAme they stopped lIkIng you though
they would hAve been very helpful
no subject
So um, like th4t!
They could h4ve been.
Except they didn't ever... re4lly t4lk much, no.
I think I like... my sprite more, yes.
He t4lks 4nd sometimes... even puzzles with me.
But um, the bees... prob4bly couldn't do th4t.
no subject
uhm, we're functIonAlly mAmmAls If thAt meAns AnythIng to you..??
whIch meAns It tAkes A mAle And A femAle Adult humAn to produce offsprIngs
And the most common scenArIo Is thAt they rAIse these offsprIngs together even If It doesn't AlwAys turn out lIke thAt
