From: The Violant Threshold
Up, into the forbidden halls of the High Sancta, where Apocrypha bathe in light. Disregard your vision altogether. Focus on the sounds; the smells; the textures beneath your fingertips.
Unlocked with Counterlight (You have some measure of protection.)
Success
Protected
Your breath is loud and close. The blindfold chafes against your skin, the knot tight at the back of your head. […]
One step. Two. Which way is forwards? You cannot say. The halls of Zenith swallow you, a maze of carved walls and waxy dripstone.Description summary:
The end of the first paragraph changes based on Counterlight Source.
Source | Effect |
---|---|
1 | An anticandle does not gutter, and does not die. In that lack, violant trickles inwards. |
2 | You lose hold on a memory of forgetfulness. In that lapse, violant trickles inwards. |
3 | A filament gutters and dies. In that failure, violant trickles inwards. |
