Chapter 3 - Turned to Stone
I was very frightened at first: I thought I might have had a stroke and couldn't move my jaw. I frantically tried to move the rest of my body but it too didn't budge. Even my eyes were dead-locked straight forward. The woman finished her inspection of me and stood before me.
"You're perfect...among the best of any of them. Here, have a look."
She walked out of my sight. Again, I strained to follow her with my eyes but to no avail. You have no idea what an odd feeling it is to not be able to move any part of your body even slightly. Whether you realize it or not, you are constantly moving in some way. Ju

Chapter 7 - Good Advice
I continued the one sided conversation with the statue across from me in the darkness, telling her all about my life: birthday parties, school, friends, family, and the events that lead me to where I was. I talked about television and my favorite foods and anything I could do to take my mind off of things. I made sure to keep my mind flowing like a river, not giving myself a single second to stop and reflect again. After a few hours, I had run out of things to talk about. As I struggled to come up with another topic, I realized it was becoming hard to keep any sort of thought straight.

Chapter 1 - A (not so) Brief Introduction
My name is Sarah Marcel. For the past few...well, I'm unsure of how long it's been actually. Let's just say for quite a while now, I've been living an extremely unusual life. Actually, I guess I haven't really been "living" very much of it. You see, for a great deal of my life, I've been a stone statue. I know it sounds unreal. After all, people turning to stone is the stuff of myth and movies, right? You couldn't be more wrong. I figured after all these years, someone out there should know what I've been through, and I've finally decided to put it all on paper. Now, I'm no writer by any mea

First half: Statue Survivor: Episode 2A
Previous Episode: Statue Survivor: Episode 01
Welcome to Statue Survivor, where you in the audience help decide the victims' fate! In the comments below, please cast your votes in the following categories. You get three votes in each category, divided however you choose.
1. Vote in a new character.
2. Vote for which character fails in the next episode*
3. Vote for which door the contestants choose**
4. Answer the trivia question.
SPECIAL: Cast a revival vote
Full rules here: Introducing: Statue Survivor
Current vote tally and list of current contestants here: Statue Survivor Vote Tallies
* Remember, you're allowed to preemptively vote to doom a character that has not yet been officially voted in.
**The Mystery Door, if chosen, will randomly pick a peril from previous episodes that was unused.
Special Vote:
Since we ended up with a full party wipe, you all get the chance to save one of the episode's victims. You may cast one vote for either Mint, Chloe, Honami, Adelicia, or Palutena. The character with the most votes will be revived for the next episode. However, if no one character gets a minimum of five votes, the results stand and no one is saved. Of course, if you are happy with the results, you don't need to cast any vote at all.
Trivia Question of the Week: Magic of Restoration
The first person who posts the correct answer gets two additional reivival votes, OR, can take two votes AWAY from the character(s) of their choice.
Question: Due to the unusual update time, the question will be posted at a later time in the interest of fairness. Please stay tuned to know the time.

So, those of you who read the detailed rules about the randomness mechanics may have learned that with the way I structure the probablity, there is only a 1% chance of there being a full party wipe. And yet, when I rolled the proverbial dice, it was a perfect 100 staring back at me. So it would seem the Harpy's Nest would be the end of the road for our whole team. Of course, doing it like this makes me feel a bit guilty, since your elimination votes have no meaning when the whole team gets frozen anyway. Thus, I give one last chance for participation, to revive a character if you so choose. Of course, you can also leave them be, to suffer their frozen fate forever.
As for the content, I tried my best to make the plot and perils worthy of a party wipe. I varied up the methods of freezing, and the types of harpies, to hopefully keep thngs interesting enough. If freezing peril isn't your thing, well, I do apologize, but that's how the votes landed. There's plenty more episodes to come, and plenty more victims to vote in, so hopefully you'll find something you like in future episodes if this one was unsatifactory.
