As you grip your spoon tightly and the last spots of magic fade from your eyes, you remembered what you did. Your name is James Calaca, once wanted by the High Magistrate of the Eternal Empire, for crimes you did commit. Hey, you might have deserved a stint in jail, but your crime's not bad enough to have you thrown in the Gaol, right? ...Right?

Violence it is.
>+ Violent
>+ Rebel
>+ Stubborn

So, turns out you've always got a disdain for authority, which really rubs the wrong way with the Eternal Empire. I mean, who are they to tell you what or what not to do? It makes your blood boil, really. But you've kept your volatile temper in check, and joined a group of similar-minded people. You've participated in rallies, defaced your share of posters of the Eternal Empress, incited a few riots, even brawled against the Enforcers this one time. But every time, your bullheadedness and your group of malcontents managed to save you from capture - that is, until that one time when you stubbornly tried to stop an Enforcer dyno-truck containing your rebel friends, despite the odds. While you managed to overturn the truck, you failed to withstand the Enforcers' zap-wands. You get captured, and got a swift trial. The rest is history.

Ah well, it's in the past now. No time like the present. As you take in your surroundings, you notice you're sitting on a rusted catwalk bridging what looks like cell blocks. The room goes up seemingly forever, you can't see the ceiling. There's sounds of dripping water from below, a flicker of light in one of the cells to your right, and a faint presence to your far left.

You just can't shake the feeling off. It's like being watched. Your body tingles with alarm, and you whip your head left - only to see a tall, gangly person slowly walking towards you from the other end of the walkway. You can't hear their footsteps, but you can definitely hear their exhalation - the sound trembling with anticipation. They've stopped when they've reached about ten paces from you, at which point you recognize them as female.
"F-finally, some new blood!" A barely audible, creepily excited whisper from the lanky woman. "H-hey there h-handsome. You c-come here often?" there is a hint of artifice in the stutters. "Come with me, we'll h-have lots of... fun... hehehe" her smile creeps you out.

You shift into a relaxed but tense stance, one that radiates confidence. It is clear in your mind that this woman is an inmate like you, and she's going to control you one way or another. So you prepare to flip the script on her. You smirk and wink, "No way, hag."
Upon seeing your stance, she clicks her tongue in mock disapproval. "Could've chosen the easy path, but then again I like the feisty ones... hehehe" she wields her spoon like a bat. "This should be more fun than those ones from the youth academy..."

Swiftly, you charge towards the woman, both hands raised. "Your dick is MINE, handsome!" She swings, but her spoon hits wind as you dodged deeper into her space. Just as you are within fisticuff range, you stop right in front of her face, wink, and say confidently,
"I want you! ...to follow me instead, how 'bout it, sweety?"
Somehow, you managed to say it without snickering at all. It was the cheesiest line you could think up at the moment.
To your surprise, she freezes in her track. Then suddenly, two lines of red trickle down her nose, as her entire being trembled from her very core. "Mmnnnhhh! Yes! Yeees! I've always wanted to hear those words! Take me, handsome!"
She fell into a shuddering mess, panting and exhaling heavily. "I've... nobody has ever said that to me... it's always either 'no way', 'you're ugly', or 'I need an adult'... ohh handsome, I-i-i, I thank you for this!"
She looks like she's very, very happy.

You take a quick look at your surroundings, and it soon became clear that this section of the Gaol is quite uninhabited. Despite the ruckus you and the woman made, you feel no other presence nearby. The flickering light you saw earlier had dimmed out, but that dripping noise from below still echo through the prison wing. You wonder if you could find anything in the individual cells.
Satisfied with your scouting, you pick up the quivering mess in your arms, and another excited sigh escapes her. The warmth of another almost reminds you of something long ago...
Now then, on to business.

Disregarding the way she sharply sniffs on your hair right now, you set off to one side of the walkway and onto the rows upon rows of prison cells. A lot of them have rusted bars, and seem to contain only dilapidated matresses - some are even barren. You'd need a closer look at the ones nearest to you, which is the five cells on this side of the block.

>VERITABLE HAUL
You have a feeling that the real treasure is hidden from sight. Knocking on the mattresses and surrounding floors and checking crevices, you eventually find a prisoner's treasure trove. Five such caches, as it seems every cell you checked has something in them.

You managed to gain:
Three blocks of... bread? Cheese? Nutrient bars? with mushrooms growing on them.
A mitochondria. The reasons why it fits in your palm is beyond you.
A spoon, wrapped with a cloth strip.
Two bars of soap. Do not drop them.
A lewd hand-drawn magazine, too bad most of its content had been torn out. Based on its cover picture, though, you're not missing much.
An effigy of a horned, tailed thing, carved out of solid concrete.
A strange polygonal shape that is more an idea rather than a thing, as if an idea can be carried in your hand. You think it might be a container of some sort.

After making off with your haul, you noticed that the woman seemed to be calmer now. Even if she still wears that happy teethy grin all the time.
"Hey, you." You speak, prompting her to turn her head towards you.
"Yes, handsome?"
"Uh, I have a name, you know. It's James Calaca."
"James... Calaca..." she savors each word as if it is a delicious meal.
Seeing as she seem to be stuck in a daze after a couple of seconds, you continued. "Hey, you must have one too, don't you?"
"Hm?" She tilts her head slightly, broken from her fugue.
"A name. What's yours? I can't keep referring to you as 'you', you know."
"Ah, oh! It-it's Petunia Karachova. Not the best of names, eh? Ehehehe."
Well, at least this woman's got a name, and you've sorta broken the ice. You feel like a conversation is now possible.

"So, Petunia," you start, eliciting a trembled whisper from her that sounds like 'he said my name'. "How did you end up here?"
"Well, you see... I can't help it, when I see the vigour of adolescence! Maybe it started after one too many rejections. But my job as a nurse-medic at one of the youth academies has offered, uh, many, MANY opportunities. Suffice to say, I've since graduated my tastes... or lowered my standards considerably, some say."
"So, you're a... serial non-consensualist."
"Yes... let's just say I have loads of libido and no legal way to satiate my tastes, handsome."
"And here I thought vandalizing posters were cool. I used to run with some revolutionaries."
"Just drawing moustaches on posters? Really?"
"Well, there's also that time with the East End worker riots, the Enforcer brawl at the docks, and oh, the time when I tipped over an Enforcer truck..."
"Ahh, so powerful! Quite the indomitable spirit."
"So yeah... you've been here for longer than I am, right?" You pet the mitochondria absent-mindedly. It hums with ATP.
"The Gongalla Gaol... I've been here for a couple of years now, and most of it is still a puzzle. The place just sprawls out in every direction. Things get real strange in the fluxy parts."
"I'm sorry, the what now?"

>>4824407
"The places where magic is twisted. Where reality is not as stable as it should. That's why most of the inmates started to move out of the blocks, parts of it fluxed in the past. Some colonies remain, though."
"Those fluxes might explain this mitochondria and this polygon, then." You show her the items, of which the mitochondria she stroked once.
"More or less, there's also the contrabands some have smuggled when they got in. Or thoughtforms. That's a thing too. When there's not much to do, thinking's a way to make things."
"How do we even survive in this place?"
"Well, every day there's two of those bland nutri-blocks teleported from... somewhere. Pro tip: they taste nasty, it's way better to use them to grow mushrooms. Last longer, and mushrooms at least got some taste."
Well, that certainly didn't help your outlook for the future. What now?

"So what's the deal with the spoons?" You say as you walk towards the dark.
"Beats me. Makes for a good tool and a makeshift weapon, though."
As you check another random cell, you notice that the matress is not bolted to the floor like the others. "Hey, Petunia, check this out." Using your strength, you easily shift the heavy mattress aside to reveal... a hole. Someone, or something, had tried to escape before.
"You thinking what I'm thinking, handsome?"
"Pondering where it leads? Then yes."
"I can hear faint wind, this might connect to another chamber. Or... outside."

>>4824919
I'm going to guess it has drawbacks, otherwise the prisoners would be waging wholesale wars to acquire it.

Which brings me to another question, just how well guarded is the Gongalla Gaol? Like, is it just an big prison with guards doing patrols and stuff, or is it completely anarchic prison world where they just drop the prisoners and let them do whatever?

>>4825065
I mean if it's the size of a fucking continent, I doubt there would be much worry of people escaping considering the sheer scale of things. They probably just leave us in there to rot.

>>4825579
I was in some dumb quest I forgot the name to and it was supposed to be a multi-player game no votes just cause and effect, but it's also an easier way for qms to keep up with who I am since I'm a dynamic ip phoneposter

"Well, a hole's a hole, let's get in." You say, eliciting a snigger from Petunia. "Oh, you know what I mean."
You gingerly step in, using the uneven walls of the tunnel as footholds. It feels like the hole is too big for a single person to climb down safely, you feel you could fall on your back.
"I'll go balls deep just for you, handsome." Petunia offers a solution, back-to-back climbing.
So, carefully, you and Petunia crawled down, each pressing on the other to provide balance. After a while the entrance seem like a small dim dot above.
"This is quite a deep tunnel. You tired yet?"
Petunia replies, "Just being this close to you makes me energetic. Or maybe it's that Mitochondria of yours- oh, found a floor."
Indeed, soon after, your feet landed on something hard and smooth.

Too bad you can't see a thing. Only the occasional glint off of Petunia's glasses lets you know where she is.
"It's dark as hell. You okay?" You ask Petunia.
"I can see you somewhat, handsome. This isn't the first time I'm alone with another male in the dark, you know."
"Well, can you see a light switch or something?"
"Maybe you could, I dunno, rub the Mitochondria? Or the polygon. Might do something."
Yeeah you gotta do something, anyways.

You fumble about with your inventory in the darkness, bumping against what feels like the two soaps before you get your hands on the Mitochondria. It is a soft, slightly rubbery thing, quivering slightly under your touch. Wait, why are there two- "PETUNIA! Not now, you perv!"
"Ehehehe, sorry, but really, that was an accident." She replied just as you find the real Mitochondria, which is just as soft, rubbery, and slightly quivering.
You slowly rub the organelle and feel energetic - Petunia's right, this might do something. You rub it faster, and soon the Mitochondria emits a visible glow.
"Do actual Mitochondria do that?" You ask, astonished.
"Only when there's plenty of magic stuff around. At least the small ones. We might be standing on some sort of leyline."
"You seem like you know your magics."
She sheepishly shrugs. "Had to learn basic healing spells before, ah, the Gaol."
You look around in the scarce light, it seems that the hole under the mattress leads to some sort of well-made tunnel. To one side you hear faint wind howling - or rather, wheezing its way around a possible room. On the other side, you catch a glint of something, being reflected behind Petunia.

You thought about heading towards the wind, but on second thought it sounds too regukar to be just wind. So you head towards the glittering things - which turns out to be crystals. Small, big, they encrust the entirety of what used to be a room. Some of the crystals are even floating in the air, like motes of dust suspended in the dim light of your Mitochondria.
"Crystals? What the hell?"
"Ooh, yeah, we're on a leyline alright. A flux must've realigned the magics... grab some of the crystals, they're good for focusing magic. Really helps charging you up."
>+3 magic shards
As you pick up some of the bigger floating pieces, you notice that the room has another exit further back, heavily encrusted by crystals but seem to be passable. Oh, and Petunia's hand feeling your butt. You shoot her a knowing glance.
"Hey, I am nothing if not opportunistic. You have nice muscle tone, by the way."

"We really need to talk about your wandering hands later. Now come on, let's check the next room."
Moving carefully so your clothes doesn't get ripped up by errant crystals, the two of you entered another chamber. You noticed the Mitochondria glowing brighter as it nears a floating crystal, so you laid the crystal on its top. It immediately shone, illuminating the thing right in the middle of what used to be a bathroom.
"That's a huuuge crystal."
"Looks like someone's in it. Never seen something like that before. Maybe a spell gone wrong?"
"I bet it's not as sturdy as it looks like."
"Then feel free to whack at it, handsome."

"Oh, is that a challenge? Hold Mighty for a sec."
"Mighty? Oh, you mean the Mitochondria?"
"Yeah, and keep this crystal on. Use your hairband maybe?" You say as you grab a spoon from your inventory, the one with the grip; you recall the sharp heat and rebellious power boiling within and take a stance. A moment in silence. "How was it supposed to go again? Oh yeah. REACH HEAVEN THROUGH VIOLENCE!"
A shatter that resounds through the crystallized room later, and you realized that either you have some strength beyond strength, or the crystal was really, really weak. It was shattered entirely, along with the person inside!

To your relief, and then your annoyance, you found out that the person inside was actually a robot, an Enforcer most likely. Its severed head bounced a bit before it came to a halt near your feet.
"Hello there, inmates! I am a junior wardenbot, designation Frank-11. I say, thank you from freeing me from that bit of bother, myes. Although I'll definitely have to cite the partial dismemberment of a junior wardenbot."
Ugh, Enforcers. Still, three heads might be better than two.

"Yep, that's a wardenbot all right, they used to monitor the prisoners and keep the place running... in theory. I guess fluxes lay beyond their programming." Petunia commented on the decapitated thing.
Ugh, one of the Eternal Empire's lackeys, eh? You have no sympathy for them, and you've considered just kicking this tin can out of its misery, but then again...
"Hey Petunia, how about I give you a head?" You toss her the disembodied wardenbot.
"Ooh, I could have some fun with this!" She immediately tried to fondle it between her breasts, which due to a lack of mass, resulted in cranial dislodgement.
"Please, cease your assault of the bosom, madam! I should also report this, but unfortunately there was a... connection problem." Frank noted.
With a sigh, you picked the head up. "Well, what else can you do?"
It seemed to mull some thoughts. "Provided there are intact power sources, I could interact with the magitek circuits, myes. Like turning on the lights here, just like that."
Well, what do you know, this junk can still work. You set about looking around in the crystallized bathroom, finding little. Even Frank's old body was of little use, most of it rusted over and/or destroyed during your rescue attempt. Even the stun-wand he has on his hip was crushed beyond functionality.
There's nothing else here, except for maybe a safe place to rest, if you don't mind the crystals growing on the floor.

"Let's go, then. Let's check that place where we heard some wind."
Letting Petunia carry Frank's head, you lead them both to the other end of the tunnel, the regular breezy sound slowly growing more noticable. As you approach the end of the hallway, you notice a door, open by just a crack. A defiant sliver of orange invites you to open it, so open it you did... and you see a sunset.
"What in the name of revolution?!"
Not just that, but you start to notice the inherent impossibility of it: the entire horizon, the whole sunset, is enclosed within an impossibly huge chamber. The door led to some kind of rooftop or viewing platform, and you can see other buildings bathed in the bruised golden light. It's as if the world is set ablaze, and the maroon curtains are slowly closing on this stage play called existence.
"Looks like a primo makeout spot. Uou know, where teens get their first kisses and such." Gotta leave it to Petunia to break you out of your awe.
"I see that this sunset is still safely contained. A word of advice: please don't stare directly at it for too long. The nostalgia might be contagious." Frank speaks, from the depths of Petunia's armpits. You do feel like something is tugging at your heartstrings.

The growing ache in your heart makes you want to either kiss someone, or to run, and get out of here. You take a side-glance to Petunia, who is currently picking her nose, and quickly considered the latter option. "There's gotta be a way off this roof."
After a cursory search, you find two holes in the safety nets of the building you're on. One has a rusted walkway similar to the ones on the prison blocks bridging the gap to another rooftop, while the other has a more challenging route that involves shimmying down some pipes, that leads to a different rooftop. Or perhaps you could reach that observation window thing below.
With each moment, the aching passion grows. Where to, picasso boy?

While it seems easy, you are not sure that the walkway is structurally sound. "C'mon, let's go here."
Sliding down the pipes is the easy part. Getting off safely, however, requires timing. That's why you chose to carefully shimmy down to the rectangular room jutting out the back side of the building. The strange feeling tugging on your heartstrings seem to subside, now you're in the shadow of the building. You briefly considered to carry Petunia on your back as you get on the pipe, but it soon becomes apparent that she is more athletic than she seem to be. And with one hand carrying the robot head!
"Hmm, is that some magitek I detect?" Frank pipes up, soon after both of you landed. "Functioning ones too, but... not again, connection error. At least I think I can open doors and the like."
"Hey handsome, think you can open up that hatch there? There's a strange feeling in my heart, that grows more erect the more time we spend out here."
