Sabastian Saw: I say we run and don't stop
Pam Shawcross: I know what to do
Clau: What?
Pam Shawcross: They look like Sphinxes and the history book said that Sphinxes would ask you riddles and if you got it wrong you died but if you got it right you live. So maybe if we get it right we can run away.
Clau: Psst!
Pam Shawcross: [while walking toward the Sphinxes] What?
Clau: Where are you going?
Pam Shawcross: To answer the riddle.
Clau: I'm coming with you.
Pam Shawcross: Fine by me
Clau: What else do you know about these things?
Pam Shawcross: Nothing, the history books didn't tell me much.
Sphinx: Answer this riddle right and you shall pass but if you fail you'll be ash.
Sphinx: What goes on four feet in the morning, two feet at noon, and three feet in the evening?
Clau: Do you know the answer?
Pam Shawcross: Yeah
Pam Shawcross: Man, he crawls on all fours when he's baby, he walks upright as an adult, and uses a cane when he's old.
Sphinx: You may pass.
Clau: How'd you know that?
Pam Shawcross: I read
Pam Shawcross: Guys we can go now!
Benjamin Donovan: Ok!
Unknown Woman: They're over there!
Sabastian Saw: Time to go.
Clau: Run!
Brielle Bassett: Didn't expect to be doing this during the adventure!
Clau: Pretty Sure no one did!
Unknown Woman (Whistles)
Unknown Woman: Go get 'em!
Clau: [Looks back while running] They sent dogs after us?
Pam Shawcross: Looks like it
Texcean Gacy: How are we gonna get out of this?
Clau: I don't know
Pam Shawcross: There's supposed to be some kind of line we can cross over that they won't.
Clau: Why won't they cross over it?
Pam Shawcross: Because it leads to the outside world.
Clau: How do we know when we're over the line?
Pam Shawcross: You'll feel a force on your body but only for a few seconds.
Clau: Ok
Clau
We continued to run then I felt the force that Pam was talking about. I looked back and saw that the dogs stopped running after us.
Clau: I'm guessing that we're in the outside world.
Pam Shawcross: Yep
Texcean Gacy: That was thrilling.
Clau: I know right
Texcean Gacy: I was being Sarcastic
Clau: Oh
Brielle Bassett: What now?
