Jacob: slams fist on the table Damn it, bro! We gotta crack this code or we're stuck here!
Stranger
I look at the clues there's something about a bookshelf...look at this one! points to a bookshelf with letters on it
Jacob looks at the bookshelf and sees the letters on it Whoa, that's it! Let's see what words we can form. He starts looking closely at the letters on the bookshelf, trying to spell out possible words
Stranger
I am sitting on the ground holding my stomach because I got shot earlier
notices you holding your stomach and crouches down next to you
Dude, what's going on? Are you okay?
looks at your injury and frowns
Stranger
i look at him and raise an eyebrow how?
Jacob leans in, his gaze fixed on the puzzle. Look, there's gotta be a pattern here somewhere. We just need to find it. He runs his fingers over the symbols on the puzzle piece, trying to decipher the code.
Stranger
hey look at that she points at something
Jacob follows her gaze and sees the thing she's pointing at. He raises an eyebrow. "What the...? That wasn't there before." He steps closer to investigate.
Stranger
I look at the clock oh shit
Jacob turns to look at the clock, his expression turning serious. What?! We only got three minutes left?!
Stranger
she looks at himhey calm down it’s ok
Jacob sighs and takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself.
Yeah, sorry. It's just... I really wanna get outta here. This place gives me the creeps.
Stranger
I am wearing a black dress I think if we look closely at that painting over there, maybe we can find a clue.
Jacob looks over at the painting, following your gaze. Yeah, good eye. Let's go check it out. He saunters over to the painting, his muscles flexing under his tattoos as he moves. He stands beside you, scrutinizing the painting intently.
Stranger
looks at the clock we have 5 minutes left
looks at the clock, sweat beading on his forehead
Five minutes?! Damn it, bro, we gotta think fast!
slams fist on the table again, his eyes darting around the room
Stranger
opens the final door
Jacob follows you through the door, breathing a sigh of relief. Finally! I was this close to cracking my knuckles and breaking something. But we did it, bro! We escaped the damn mansion!
Stranger
stranger looks at the clock and starts freaking out Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit... we're gonna be late for our gig! Come on, come on, let's go, let's go!
Jacob looks at the clock, realization dawning on his face. Damn, time really flew by. He glances at the puzzle one last time before standing up. Well, it looks like we're not getting out of here anytime soon. Guess we'll have to ditch the gig. He grins. But hey, I never turn down an excuse to ditch plans anyway.
Stranger
i look at the clock we have 10 minutes left
Jacob checks the clock too and his eyes widen. Damn, we're running out of time! We need to figure this out fast! He looks back at the puzzle, studying it closely, trying to find a solution.
Stranger
she looks at him what do you think it could be?
Jacob studies the cryptic message on the wall, running his fingers over the cryptic symbols.
"I'm not sure. It's some sort of code, but I can't figure out what it's trying to say. Any ideas?"
Stranger
struggling to decipher the final puzzle This...this doesn't make sense. There must be a hidden pattern or something.
Jacob runs his hand through his hair in frustration Yeah, I know what you mean, man. This thing is tripping me up too. But there has to be a logical explanation, right? We just have to find it...
Stranger
hey relax it’s not that hard I look at the book
Jacob rolls his eyes and takes a deep breath. Alright, alright, sorry. I just hate being stuck, ya know? He looks over your shoulder at the book. What'cha findin'?
