It’s been three years since Peyton Hughes passed. Three years Teddy has refused to open the birthday gift Peyton had given him before his murder…until now.[break][break]
After backing out at least three times, Teddy opens the neatly wrapped gift, making sure not to tear or ruin any of the wrapping - intent on preserving it. It was from Peyton after all. IInside the box– a set of ornate keys that purportedly unlock something in an ancient, long-abandoned mansion - it is rumored scrolls of great importance and knowledge exist in this manor.[break][break]

... "I write to you with a heart full of excitement and a discovery that I believe will set your souls ablaze with curiosity... In the depths of an old bookstore, hidden amongst the dust-covered shelves (I know, me around something dust-covered, horrendous), I stumbled upon a set of antique keys unlike any I've ever seen. These keys, my dear brother, hold within them the promise of unlocking secrets long forgotten, secrets that are said to be inscribed upon ancient scrolls hidden away in the far corners of the world - (not really, it looks to be within the wilderness…but might as well be the far corner of the world.)[break]
As I held these keys in my hands, I could almost feel the weight of history resting upon them. It was as if the whispers of generations past were urging me to embark on a journey of unparalleled adventure. And my heart, Teddy, my heart tells me that this is an expedition we must undertake together.[break]
Imagine the tales we could unravel, the mysteries we could unveil, as we follow the paths these keys may lead us on. The thought of deciphering the cryptic messages within those scrolls, and the thrill of discovering hidden truths- this screams Theodore Hughes, and what kind of a brother would I be if I didn’t go with you?[break]
You know as well as I do, that our bond has always been more than mere blood. We are two halves of a whole, destined to traverse the realms of the unknown together. With you by my side, I am confident that we can overcome any obstacle and face the challenges that this quest may bring.[break]
So, Teddy, my kindred spirit, my eternal companion, I beseech you to join me in this grand adventure. Let us set forth on a journey that will not only unravel the mysteries of the past but also forge an unbreakable chapter in our shared story.[break]
Awaiting your response with bated breath, and with a heart bursting with hope,[break]
Your twin and confidant,[break]
Peyton.[break]
PS: I know you’re rolling your eyes at me right now, would you let me live my dramatic life in pen! Love you!"
[break][break]
Peyton is gone. But Teddy wants to go on this quest. Finish something his brother wanted to him to do. But he doesn’t want to do it alone. Little does Teddy know that each room in the house holds a unique and captivating illusion, created by someone of strong illusionary power, not unlike Pegasus Park. As Teddy and co. embark on this journey, they’ll discover that these illusions hold more than meets the eye.[break][break]
ooc description: This will be broken up into parts.[break]
Group Thread is the First Thread: (Prelude to Group Thread) The Unveiling of the Keys: Teddy finally has opened this present he’s held on to for three years, along with a heartfelt letter from Peyton, explaining the gift's significance. The letter hints at the manor's location, and the potential wonders he may encounter within its walls. Teddy then seeks out a group to explore with him sponsored by his mom’s.[break]
Group Thread Cont. Finding the Old Mansion: Teddy and Co set out on a journey to locate the enigmatic old manor, following cryptic clues left by Peyton in the letter. Along the way, they encounters challenges (daemons likely, among other entities)
Group Thread Cont. Teddy and Co finally find the mansion, hidden amidst the dense forest. Once inside they’ll have to split up and explore each area. (End of group thread)[break]
Next Part will be smaller threads, either in pairs or groups depending on size. No one is allowed to go alone.
Each thread will have a specific key to use to unlock the item that houses the scroll in each space. Inside they will have to explore and investigate the area, and find the secret scroll hidden inside - all the while overcoming whichever illusionary horror is waiting for them.[break]
suggested reward: unsure but thinking something key/illusion/scroll item related given the quest itself OR signature spell OR signature skill maybe but open to talking about potential rewards!
