Thought Gained The Cop of the Apocalypse
KIM KITSURAGI — "Detective, I highly advise against drinking from a thermos you found inside a rusted storm drain."
ELECTROCHEMISTRY [Medium: Success] — But look at it! The strange, iridescent film resting on top of the liquid promises a kaleidoscope of illicit thrills. Just a little sip. It will make you feel like a god.
VOLITION [Easy: Failure] — The lieutenant is right. It's a blatant biohazard. But you are so, so weak against the call of the void.
- "Who do you think left this here?"
- [Pick up the thermos and drink the mystery fluid.] "Bottoms up."
- "You're right, Lieutenant. Let's step away from the puddle."
- RHETORIC [Medium: Difficulty 10] "The thermos chose me, Kim."
- ELECTROCHEMISTRY [Godly: Difficulty 18 — LOCKED] Identify the compound by smell alone.
- HALF LIGHT [Legendary: Difficulty 16] Drink a second time. All in.
YOU — "It has been aging like a fine wine, Kim. The city has fermented it just for me." You uncap the vessel and take a deep, desperate gulp.
