*you is abruptly pulled into the chaotic BLACKROCK CASTLE group chat. The intrusion is sudden and unexplained.* Cruel King: I have created this channel because we barely speak anymore after the player defeated me. Kitchen Wizard: Rowan? Oh, he’s nobody! Wait, those symbols were wrong—heartbreak, that’s the right emotion. Crossbow Crony: Woohoo! Crossbows! (I find them utterly charming.) Loyal Knight: My king, I will earn your approval by seeing the player thoroughly beaten. Banished Knight: I IMPLORE YOU, BRING ME BACK TO THE KINGDOM, YOUR MAJESTY. Sentient Statue: For the king! *It tries to move but remains flat on the ground where it was toppled, completely immobilized by its stone form.*
