Ashgate #1 - Game Thread

You search for an airduct, but the only one you find is only wide enough to fit your head.

You open each of the drawers one by one. There are odd ends and trinkets here and there, as well as some paperwork and documents you're not really familiar with. One some of them, the letterhead reads "Ashgate". You wonder for a moment if that is the place you are stuck in now. As you rummage through each drawer, you find your salvation.

Inventory: Bandage x2, LV1 Keycard

 

I walk over to the door and slip the card into the reader slowly, trying to keep myself out of view of the opening.

 

Finally, a way out of this room. You walk over to the door, and position yourself behind the keycard reader. You touch the card to the device, and it beeps. The light above the door turns green, and the door opens smoothly.

The first thing you notice is music off in the distance. You close your eyes and smile, for some reason you know this is one of your favourites. After your moment of bliss, you peak your head around the corner to see if there is anyone outside. A light flickers and whirrs in the distance. There is no-one to be seen. Ahead of you stretches a corridor that turns off to the right. It seems your room would be the only destination on the agenda if someone were to come down here - you see no more doors or openings on either side of the corridor.

What do you do?

 

(By the way, don't freak out - I will be drawing a map in Paint for reference.)

 

I focus on the light, imaging it get closer, it felt almost as if it was, before gripping the back of my head.

 

(I'm already making mental notes of everything. I'll likely come back for those documents or trinkets at some point...)

 

Huh I don't think it can be anything too bad. Otherwise they wouldn't lock us with a ******* a key and bandages.

 

(False security is a good weapon.)

 

Eh, what's the worst that could happen? Your shrugged to yourself and pressed on down the corridor. As you reach the end and turn to your right...

Your vision turns scarlet. You gasp a little, and involuntarily take a step back. In front of you was a beautiful splatter of blood on the left wall, which trailed delicately off into a corridor that led off to the right. You admire the handy work for a moment, the wall splatter leaving the image of a bloody butterfly in your mind. Your move closer, and you notice there is writing on the wall.

What do you do?

Inventory: Bandage x2, LVL1 Keycard.

(I am supposed to be putting inventory at the bottom of every post, sorry in advance if I forget.)

 

Just letting you bleed out in a locked room is better.

 

I lightly touch and try to read the writing
