You cannot play as Rupert; you can only play as members of your current party.

You stomp around in the undergrowth, taking out your frustrations on the defenceless weeds at your feet. You feel slightly better for it.

You are now playing as Jack Aaronova. The events of last night have left quite an impression on you, and you feel unable to deal with the endless torrent of existence flowing through you just now. More than anything you'd like a good night's sleep, but you know full well your nightmares were bad enough even before they started bleeding into reality.

You currently possess only the tattered seifuku you are wearing and the bloodied stone dagger in your hand. You have level 7 ailuromancy, and thereby have access to the following skills:

  • Basic ailuromantic weather prediction (active skill): can accurately predict the weather for the next six hours by observing at least one cat's behaviour for a period of at least one minute.
  • Feline communication (passive skill): can understand and employ general methods of cat communication, e.g. hissing, purring, meowing.
  • Cat affinity evaluation (active skill): can tell another sapient being's affinity towards cats. Requires line of sight. Costs 15 mana.
  • Summon cat (active skill): can summon a cat from the nearest interdimensional aperture. Costs 100 mana.
  • Advanced ailuromantic weather prediction (active skill): can accurately predict the weather for the next 24 hours by observing at least one cat's behaviour for a period of at least four minutes. Costs 20 mana.
  • Cat possession (passive skill): cats in the near vicinity are now playable members of your party.
  • Inverse ailuromantic weather prediction (active skill): can, by performing a given action on a cat, cause a corresponding change in future weather (e.g. bringing cat to a warm place makes weather warmer, spinning cat around produces cyclone). Costs 125 mana.

In addition to this, you have two unspent skillpoints - left over from christmas, the night before last - and 210 mana.

The Pentagon 1024SL can't help you. Nobody can help you now.

You find yourself in desperate need of some moral support. Ariadne is very dear and all, but she's a little socially inept, and, frankly, you don't really trust her awfully much.

You tilt back your head, look up to the sky and call out for someone to come save you - some perfect paragon of justice, integrity and truth; of everything that's right with the world. As if on cue, there is a rustling in the undergrowth to the west, in the direction you came from. You and Ariadne stare in silence, breath held. C-could it be?

No, never mind, it's just the reanimated bits of grunt, which, displaying abominable tenacity, have followed you all the way here. There are various limbs, partial corpses, disembodied heads and such, crawling or rolling towards you in a way equal parts disturbing and comical.
