Is it a trap? Can a basilisk think that logically?
Yes. The answer is yes.
As Wessex plunges into the unknoooOOoOoOoOwn after the serpent, she will notice that the rockfall has opened up new tunnels in the Peepholes; roots frame portals previously buried, though whether that's by accident or design is uncertain at this point.
Either way, it's no longer a simple route but a labyrinth that the demigoddess needs to follow, weaving and twisting and turning and seeming to loop upon itself more than once.
Until it isn't. Until there's nothing more than a big yellow eye up ahead, locked on Wessex as though she is the only creature in the world. And she might well be now, down here.
Because as she's frozen, locked in place, the world starts coming down around her. Rocks, soil and trees from above seem to collapse in place around the Wraith, sealing her down beneath the world.
...And if she were anyone else, that would likely be the end of her.
The basilisk has escaped and Wessex was frozen for 3 turns and buried beneath the Peepholes! Since she does not need to breathe and can teleport away, this is merely the end of the KQ.
This counts as a failed KQ, but Wessex will be able to count it for credit as she stayed until the end.
The Ascended will not be able to attempt this KQ again until Flowerbirth. Any others who find out about this IC are welcome to try it before then.
Basilisk: 305/750 HP (OUT)
Wessex 378.5/605 HP
