[0004]: You Must Really Love Testing [video]

[redacted_error]

[The feed flickers, showing stone, no doubt the exterior wall surrounding the mansion. It would seem fairly ordinary, if not entirely uninteresting, except for the white stone was bordering a view of the sky with the town below. A painting maybe? But it is far too realistic. An orange rim surrounds the picture.

It worked. [The utterance is quick and soft, but there is no hiding the excitement creeping into her voice. 

She backs up several steps, showing an electric blue frame, also depicting the sky and town--albeit a different part of it. She throws a rock towards the orange frame, and the viewer might expect the picture inside to break, vanish, or simply reject the projectile. Instead, it comes flying out of the blue frame. She repeats again, aiming for the blue frame, and it flies from the orange.]

The portal gun still works.

It’s a possibility, but I wouldn’t venture in there without good reason. We might try it on the rocky sides of the river bank, perhaps, or in the foothills?

I hear there is a very unpleasant bard that lives inside. Is that why?

Unpleasant bards aside, [he begins with a sharp smile, something that eases as he continues] it's known to be dangerous within.

[All these statements but never any reasoning behind it.] Why?

I have not ventured in myself, but those who have been in have given some troubling reports... The fae's influence is felt there even if there seem to be few corporeal foes at first. The place has a habit of... confusing those within it. Hallucinations both auditory and visual, changes in the circumstances, a strange, anchoring feeling that makes one want to stay. And there are corporeal foes, as well.
