Leather creaked, as Syndella buckled the armor on...It hadn't been in good shape before, and it<em>definently</em>hadn't been improved by her well-time dildo blow. It didn't even cover her full breasts - Or maybe it'd been designed that way, left to jiggle with each breath, with each step she took...But then again, it was better than being entirely naked. The silver-haired beauty tensed, instinctively, as the door slammed shut behind her...A little gasp teased from her lips, her violet eyes going wide!<br/><br/>She shielded her gaze against the glow of the portal, the virtual vixen hefting her new sword - that, at least, seemed entirely serviceable...And an incredibly wicked weapon. She drew a deep, steeling breath and stepped forward, ready to face whatever horrors might lurk beyond...<br/><br/>And<em>then</em>Syndella was floating in the void - the message unfurling before her, on a stylized scroll. She'd made it past the first level...This wasn't the game she'd expected to be playing, but she was making progress! "<em>Second</em>fastest~?" she echoed, a slim eyebrow arching - Well, she could've done better...But now she was wondering *exactly* who'd beat her to the end.<br/><br/>The void didn't answer her - her form drifting towards the beckoning window of light, swelling to fill her world...<br/><br/>-----------------------------<br/><br/>The world shimmered back into existence around Syndella - A soft gasp teased from her lips, her eyes widening minutely as she took in the chamber around her. Her lips curved in a little smile, a soft chuckle teased from her silky throat...Now, this was more like it. A bathhouse, hmmmm? There were worse places to be...The fragrant warmth of the air caressing her skin, even as she blinked once - reaching down to her full bosom, lifting the hourglass on it's chain.<br/><br/>"-What's this?" she mused aloud...Her brow furrowing, ever-so-slightly. She didn't remember picking<em>that</em>up. Was it some kind of...<br/><br/>And *then* her attention was drawn to the lovely platinum blonde before her...Syndella's gaze going to the stained-glass window, then back. My, but it was a *very* fetching likeness, indeed. "Cirilia, hmmmm~?" she mused aloud, laying a finger against her cheek - "Please, call me Syndella...It seems we're ahead of the others..."<br/><br/>Her slim fingers went to the clasps of her armor, unfastening them s-l-o-w-l-y...Letting the broken plate-mail vanish back into her inventory, her sword dissolving to motes of light, then to nothing. A little sigh purred from her lips, her shapely form on display at last - Syndella's bare feet padding lightly against the tiles, moving with a dancer's easy grace.<br/><br/>"I really<em>could</em>use a bath~" she agreed, easing herself into the bubbling waters...A low, long sigh of relief pealing from her lips. "Mmmmm - That *does* feel much better..." The delicious heat coursed through her, as Syndella sank into the bath's embrace - she didn't know how long she'd been hanging in chains in the dungeon, but she could feel the heat relaxing muscles she didn't even *know* were knotted! Her long, long lashes fluttered, a happy whimper coaxed from deep within...Her gaze resting on Cirilia, as she asked the obvious question-<br/><br/>"...So, what do you make of - Well, all this?" she inquired, canting her head to the side. "It seems that someone wasn't *entirely* truthful about the kind of game we signed up to play...Though it's certainly been<em>interesting</em>, so far~!"
