LOTL role-playing game he someday hopes to write)
"The Search"
01:36 Apparently the Marshals make it a habit of
looking for Light crystals in the Lost City when they can get
past the Allosaurus (Big Alice).
02:15 Apparently the
Land of the Lost has lots of stinging bugs.
02:31 In a new area outside of Lost City of where they have been
they find mine-sized piles of rocks embedded with crystals.
While in these Crystal Fields Rick puts two (green and red)
together to test them and finds that they are the kind that when
you put them together create a short burst of light.
02:48 Will mentions the other crystals that create the force
field that shocked the Sleestaks. Rick notes that they shouldn't
just grab them at random because some are powerful and could be
dangerous.
03:17 The Marshalls note that
Enik is probably still in the Lost City trying to get
through the Time Doorway again trying to get back to his own
world.
03:15 Holly also has a plastic green camping canteen on her
belt.
03:34 Rick notes that Enik doesn't want to be bothered, but Will
thinks that because they have found this Crystal Field that can
use the crystals to create the force field and convince Enik to
help them get home. But Rick notes that they aren't sure which
crystals create the force filed. Will and Holly think it may be
Blue and Red crystals.
03:43 Rick puts together a red and yellow crystal but this makes
an explosion.
04:12 Rick then tries Blue and Green crystals. Nothing seems to
happen.
04:30 Rick then tries
Red and Blue
which also doesn't seem to do anything.
04:40 Rick tries the combination of Red,
Blue and Yellow
crystals which seems to shock Rick 'like lightning'. He falls to
the ground. Rick can't even stand up after the shock.
06:00 Will refers to Enik as 'Enik the Alien'.
07:00 Will suspects that Enik might be back in his own time now
but still has to make sure.
07:32 After dodging Big Alice around pillars and hiding behind
large rocks Will manages to run through the square entrance to
the Lost City.
08:30 Holly manages to carry his father back to High Bluff.
09:15 Holly tries to use The Basket to haul her father up to the
cave. Rick is still week from the shock of the crystals.
11:19 Apparently the Marshals have built two baskets which Holly
tries to fill with rocks stored near the entrance to the cave to
counterbalance Rick's weight in the basket on the ground. When
she adds her own weight this works to haul Rick up to the cave.
13:05 Will in the Lost City underground tunnels can hear the
sound of the Time Doorway and assumes that Enik is still here.
14:10 Rick tells Holly that she is just as headstrong as
her mother. Bright, strong, and never took a backseat to anyone.
She was beautiful. Holly barely remembers her.
15:14 Will arrives at Enik's cave at a critical moment.
Enik is about to start the final countdown for the dimensional
doorway. This is the cave with the three foot large crystals
embedded in the way. Enik is concentrating on the proper
sequence of the crystals in the control pedestal.
15:45 The final countdown has started. The dimensional
doorway will connect with Enik's world for a few moments only.
If Enik does not go through at the precise time, he will miss
his chance to return home.
16:14 Enik pushes Will away with Telekinetics (from the
crystal around his neck?).
17:14 Holly throws two crystals (red and blue) to create
an explosion that drives Grumpy (The T-Rex) away from the cave
entrance.
18:20 The crystal sequence must be controlled precisely
to open the Dimensional Doorway. It will move through time and
space showing faster and faster moving images outside of its fog
shrouded doorway.
18:56 The
Doorway has stopped momentarily on Earth and Enik tries
to hold the sequence for a few seconds and tries to talk Will
into going home. But Will cannot leave his father and Holly
behind.
19:50 Enik will not allow Will's self control to be
stronger than Enik's. Enik is ashamed. Enik wonders if it is a
law that human beings will stick together. Enik passes a hand over
the crystal pedestal and closes the dimensional doorway. Enik
cannot allow Will's sacrifice to be greater than Enik's. Enik
must show as much self control as Will .This is Altrusian law.
It is their way of life.
21:03 Enik tells Holly and Will that the two stones
produce too much energy for their human bodies to absorb. The
effect caused shock to Ricks nervous system and could have been
fatal. Enik uses two glowing crystals held near Ricks' head to
heal Rick. He feels fine. According to Enik the energy of the
healing cycle has restored balance to Ricks body. The condition
Rick was in lasted most of the day.
21:44 Enik says that it's was Wills sacrifice that forced
him to come here. |
