"Oh?" Daedalus sounds fairly amused.

"Oh, well I'm glad you felt the need to share that with me." Daedalus sounds either unconvinced or completely apathetic, it's hard to tell which.

"Simon," James said, fixing his gaze on him. "Let's not."

Whatever was going on behind the scenes of the maze was critical to them escaping, and James didn't want to let Daedalus know that they knew.

"Your lean beggar is but variable service, two dishes, but to one table," he muttered.

"Hamlet? Didn't think of you as a thespian, James. I suppose you all feel the sting of the arrows of outrageous misfortune yourselves, but in any case, it is time for you to seek the exit. There is no time limit, but if I think you're deliberately dawdling, I won't hesitate to punish you."

"Well, then we should go now." Simon said as he exited the shack

Violet skims the terminal's text one last time before exiting the shack, carrying the crowbar.

"Very well," James said, following Violet. "Let's think about what this place can give us. Food, supplies, water, maybe? Daedalus can't punish us for exploiting this place as much as possible, as long as we don't stall here for too long—so we might as well simultaneously look for the door."

"Anything is better than just sitting on our bums," Violet says. "So, should we split up? Take a partner?"

Jay glanced at the forest. "Place seems rather large," he said. "Without any means of communication between us, if any of us becomes lost or falls into some danger..."

"All together, then." Violet picks a random direction and sets off.

"And on we go," James said, keeping an eye out for anything useful.

As he began to follow Violet, James forced his business smile onto his face. "Well, Mrs. Geier, seeing as we may very well be stuck in here with each other for some time, we might as well get to know each other. The name, as you know, is James Bernard, head of Jayen's marketing department. Sounds exciting, doesn't it?"

That's the smile Percy always had when he was looking at stocks. Blegh. "I have no idea what that entails, really. I'm a freelance architect. That sounds exciting, doesn't it?"

"It does," James said. His smile grew wider. "You design the roof that goes over somebody's head, while simultaneously creating a work of art. It sounds like an admirable occupation."

One of the trees near you has some low-hanging fruit. It rather resembles large, bulbous apples. Though they are orange and yellow, rather than red.

There are little spits of machinery all over the place, but none look terribly important, and most of it is broken. Occasionally, you can see parts of the original, white floor through the forest foliage.

James picked a fruit off the tree.

"Think that it's poisonous?"

"I can most definitely assure you that it is not, or at least, not to humans."

The voice is not Daedalus', nor does it seem to come from above, as his does, rather coming from somewhere behind you. It's much less deep, and much more cheery.

Violet opens her mouth to reply to James, but she frowns at the unfamiliar voice.

"I suppose this is that .183% that Daedalus mentioned he wasn't in control of."

"Oh not at all."

A small metallic construct—one might say a robot—comes floating out of the foliage. It's teardrop-shaped, with a pair of violet lights on the center of the round end that function as "eyes". Daedalus' Delta symbol is stamped on its side.

"It is quite nice to see wanderers in here again, though! I do hope you'll stay."

James blinked at the robot.

"Good morning, sir," he said. "A pleasure to meet you. I assume you're under Daedalus' service, Mr..."

As long as I treat it like I would anybody else, and ignore the fact that it is a floating robot, I may continue to retain my sanity.

A floating robot.

Why the hell not. Violet smiles politely at it. "Hello there," she says cheerfully.

"Epsilon-86-7k. Good day to you as well, wanderer! I am indeed in the service of The God of the Labyrinth, though not directly. As we have never spoken, I only sometimes hear His voice echoing in the Maze."

"I...see," James said, nodding. "Well, might as well trust you and risk poisoning than discard the only friendly advice I've been given and stay hungry."

James took a bite out of the fruit.

The fruit is surprisingly dry, and can almost be compared to a dried-out orange. But you feel no ill effects from eating it.

"These plants have evolved over many, many years of natural selection. They predate my existence."
