The sphinx leaned forward, smiling.

All of them.

Thanks for the insight

With nothing left to do here, I fly through the opened door.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

"I don't feel like going through the same door as everyone else. Let's use a different one."

Mayumi: "Understood. Kiki, it's your choice."

Kiki: "All right then, let's go with Death (four)!"

The door opens, letting out a frosty blast of mist.

The door seems to vanish as soon as you enter, though Mik Hael and Shadow appear soon afterwards.

Oppressive heat beams down from all sides, with water dripping from tall trees and vines. Plants are everywhere, so many that you can hardly see more than three feet in any direction.

Animal cries echo through the rain forest, some familiar.. others less so.

The door seems to vanish behind them, leaving them alone in a frigid hallway. The only way out seems to be a single metal door at the end. It's covered with frost.

We start walking down the hallway, alert and ready for traps or sneak attacks.

Nothing happens, though it grows colder as you approach the door.

The door opens to show rolling short hills, waving grass and a long stone pathway winding forward. Where it leads is obscured by a curve around a hill.

Mayumi: "Hey, Kiki. You fought a pyromancer before right?"

Kiki nods, "Yeah, why?"

Mayumi: "Good. Did his flames touch either of your gems?"

Kiki: "Yup. Though I'm not as good as controlling my flames as that guy was, so you two might wish to protect your clothes."

"Forget about that. Just heat up the corridor."

Kiki closes her eyes and slowly a flame forms around her right hand before traveling up her arm, without burning her, "Alright then, let's see how this works on frost on the door."

Kiki sends some of the flames at the door to lick at the frost.

The frost seems to melt at first, then the door simply opens.

A clear female voice calls out, "Enter."

I glance at Mayumi and Kiki as they quickly look towards me before we walk forward and go through the door to see...

I fly forward, heading for what I expect to be the other side of the "room" or perhaps towards a path.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
