unfortunately, when damien hears the voice he immediately wrenches away from the daisy chain. which is a very painful thing to do with his shoulder. and then he makes it worse, turning back around and slamming his hands up against where the door used to be.

[the third door opens. and you head through. behind you, the amber shivers, and dissipates.
it is... dark, here. endlessly. like the white space, there are no walls. there is no floor. just inky, black darkness, the absence of color, and the sound of a soft, ticking clock.

We can make it, there's only one more.
[As long as they stay together.
