Ten toys
Puppeteer: Don’t waste your time. Each step you take should lead you to freedom, one way or another. Will you be able to catch ten toys?
Task: Find nets, use them to catch 10 black ravens and get 10 sparrow feathers from them.
Watching the toys bustle about the layout, for the first time you notice the mechanism of the painting. It’s three-dimensional and multitier, it’s sunken into the wall deep enough for the toys to fly around towers of the house or hide behind cardboard bushes and fences. You try to take a peek inside, but the toy theatre isn’t deep enough for your head. Then you shove your hand in, you touch...
At the top of the painting there is railing hidden behind the frame and cracks, marking the edges of boxes. Something tiny and sharp stings the palm of your hand, so you have to jerk it away.
A rat runs over the house plan.
You completed the task and received some points of freedom and some tokens.
Puppeteer: Play by the rules, Feather. These puppets can stand up for themselves. But you were agile enough. The reward is yours. Don’t forget to catch my toys, when you run out of blood for the tests.
