    >> Proceed to the Foyer||

    You proceed to the foyer of the central hall. Much of it is still drenched in shadow.
    In the light of the flashlight, you notice the reflections of the enormous chandelier that hangs above you. It appears to be swaying gently, from left to right. Two statues below it seem to guard the entire room - identical, cast-iron Thinkers that are missing their heads, but they seem to just reach the chandelier. What unsettles you and the party, however, is the amount of blood that is on the cracked marble floor, also filled with dark holes. You hear a few drips. Looking up, it seems that the chandelier, as well, is dripping blood. Some blood falls down on Neku and he lets out a yelp. Even Vivi looks unsettled by this. Saxima asks what in the world could have caused this.

    The statues also bear a few drops of blood. On closer inspection, the left statue contains a few words written in the blood.

    ILLumiNaTE heaVEn
    the clouD of blood hangs above YOU to diE

    You shiver. Slowly glancing upward, all you can see is the swaying, dripping chandelier. There also appears to be no ceiling - just a dark space.

    The foyer seems to contain no other doors - only a few arched windows and more strange paintings. You hear a thundercrack outside. The mist in this room seems particularly thick, and you hear Vivi coughing near you. The movement of the chandelier seems to sway with the motion of that strange, whispering wind.

    You inch your way closer to the left statue, feeling an eerie chill run up your spine. Your flashlight illuminates the bloody letters and you peer back behind you at the others.

    || You ||

    「What do you think this means?

    Everyone leans in closer around you, forming a small huddle.

    You decide to listen to what Krowley has to say.


    || Krowley ||

    「...

    He is too busy deeply contemplating the patch of floor below the chandelier. It contains no holes.
