It really is you!” You’d recognize that sheer exhaustion and irritation anywhere! You breathe a sigh of relief. “I’m relieved to see your head wasn’t chopped off, but.. What’s going on..? Where are we?”
“We’re in my head.” Sigrid sighs, returning to rooting through the toy chest. “It’s a beheading game, Snuff–Leshy chops your head off and drags you into your own memories. You have to escape by passing through memories–<span class="mu-i">lapsing</span> them, as it were, by breaking the sequen–HEY.”
Your master suddenly snaps at you as you reach out to pinch her cheeks, biting down onto your hand <span class="mu-i">hard</span>. You wince in pain as you shrivel back. “Achk–”
“Ahem. E-..excuse the outburst.” Your lady clears her throat. “I remember you–everything, of course–but.. the magic of the memory influences how you act. And at this age, I tended toward biting people. So please refrain from doing anything strange. I’d rather you not influence my head in weird ways.”
“..My apologies.” You bow your head, making a mental note not to pinch her cheeks in this memory. “Then in that case, Lady Bertilak.. what are you doing?”
“Like I said, we have to try to break out of the memory by lapsing it–doing something in this memory I couldn’t possibly fathom and passing into another memory. Unfortunately, that’s a lot harder than just going somewhere I never went or doing something I never did. My fantastic intellect means that I can imagine innumerable scenarios and fill in lots of gaps myself.. so I have to try and be creative about this. I’m looking for anything that might help.” Your master grimaces. “And Snuff?”
“Yes, Lady Bertilak?” You ask her. “Or.. would you prefer Bertie, or..?”
“If you ever call me Lady Bertilak or Bertie again, I’ll renounce your apprenticeship.” She hisses. “Never, ever call me that again. My name is Sigrid de Hautdesert.”
