Kina ran toward Lexi and dropped to her knees beside her. She laid one hand on Lexi's shoulder and quietly asked "Are you ok?" She was a little worried for the other woman as she had clearly seen something terrible as although it would be unnoticeable for most people, Kina saw a look of fear about her.

"Something very bad happened here, Kina" Lexi said worriedly as she stood up. "Someone, or something, attacked the people here. They called for this Cupid guy, but he never came. I think he was supposed to save them..." She stared at the fountain a moment. "I'm not sure if there's anyone even left in this city... But I saw the building like no others, it's definitely here somewhere..."

Kina didn't want to press her too much, what Lexi had seen was obviously something terrible, but they needed to find that house. "Can you remember what it looked like? Or what the buildings around it looked like?" Kina had wondered why they hadn't met anyone else since coming into the city, and if something had happened, it would certainly explain why no one had opened the gate for them. She hoped that her questions about the city would be answered if they found that house.

"It was dark around it, like it was in an alleyway or something" Lexi said, trying to remember "I think the buildings around it were the same as all these other ones, just big pink and red hearts everywhere..." It was a struggle to recall, it had all happened so quickly and everything had just been feelings and quick flashes of the surroundings. She looked around her and saw the alley Kina had been in. "I think it was down there" she pointed.

Kina didn't recall seeing any strange buildings down in the alleyway, well.. none stranger than they'd already encountered. But then, she was sure she hadn't reached the end of it, although it may have looked that way. Kina nodded and started back in the direction of the alley. "Will you be ok?" She asked.

"Yeah, I'll be fine" Lexi said, catching up "I'm just not used to that many peoples' memories all at once". The alley was shorter than Lexi had thought, and they seemed to have reached the end of it without so much as an odd colour, let alone a building that was entirely different. "Huh..." she said, staring up at the building right at the end "...That's interesting... I'm sure it was down here somewhere..."

Kina frowned. Something didn't feel quite right, much like it had felt the last time she was in this alley. It was dark but her keen eyesight picked up every little detail of the buildings around them and Lexi was right, none if them were out of the ordinary, for this city. A door of the building right at the very end stood slightly ajar and Kina decided, seeing as there was no one around, that she should take a look inside. She strolled over to it stealthily, and slowly pulled it open the rest of the way. "Uh.. Lexi, I think you should take a look at this..."

Lexi hurried up to the door and peered in. There was nothing there. Literally nothing. No rooms, no hallways, no floors and no walls. Just nothing. On the outside the building was exactly the same as all of the others. But on the inside, nothing. It was just void. "I'd say this was different..." Lexi half-whispered. Something about this place made her feel the need to be very, very quiet, like if she spoke too loud she'd be lost in the void.

"My thoughts exactly" Kina whispered. She turned round and came to realise this is where she was standing when she'd had that bad feeling and had run back to Lexi to make sure she was alright. Now she knew where the bad feeling had come from, though she was sure this door hadn't been open then. She told Lexi to see what she thought of that. The only thing Kina could think of was that someone had to be around here somewhere, there was no other way the door would have been opened. Kina didn't dare take a step into the building, she felt as if somehow she might disappear like the rest of the place. She looked in as far as she could see, but there was nothing. "I don't understand why anyone would send us here, it may be different, but there's nothing. Definitely no sign for the next part of the quest. Unless we have to go in..." She really hoped they didn't.

"Hmm..." Lexi looked around her, thinking carefully about what they could possibly do. She saw a loose heart in the path and went to pick it up. When she came back, Lexi hurled the stone into the void beyond the door. It landed with a thud on an apparent floor inside the doorway and just sat there. Lexi looked confused at Kina. "Well, I wasn't expecting that..."
