"You are imprisoned in the Gargoyle King's fortress. Trapped in pens, you live in fear, never knowing when his legion of Gargoyleswill descend from the sky to feed. But his guards are arrogant. You've been able to observe and study their movements,and you've planned an escape."

"Roll the dice to decide your fate. Remember. It's only a game. It's not life or death.... Unless, of course, it is." Spoke sapphire

"Your mission was unsuccessful. Everyone dies."

"Juggy? Jug? You won't believe the story my mom told me last night. Jug. Saph. What are you doing?"

"Betty. It's all making sense, all of this is becoming clear."

"The game, the Gargoyle King, I'm a Level Three, but it's only a matter of time until I ascend..." I said honestly

"And we're get to beat him." So when the others leave Betty told us the truth

"So you've confirmed... So my dad played G&G in high school, huh? Of course, it makes so much sense."

"All of our parents did. And they swore each other to secrecy, but, Jug, Saph while they were playing, one of them killed their principal back then, Felix Featherhead, either accidentally or on purpose, but, he had blue lips. Just like Ben and Dilton, which is why all of this has to stop..."

"Betty, the fact that our parents played G&G just corroborates what I've come to believe, that we have been playing this game for a lot longer than we know. And off-board. Think about it, the Hot Dog rescue, what was that, if not a quest?"

"The Serpents, the Ghoulies, what are they? If not warring tribes, might as well call us orcs and goblins." I said

"Okay, you're both not making any sense and you're also not listening to anything that I'm saying."

"We have ten suspects that are all real, tangible leads. One of our parents could be a murderer, so let's go investigate them."

"You're not seeing the big picture. "Eldervair," the realm of Gryphons and Gargoyles is an anagram for Riverdale. The whole game is an analog for Riverdale. The game only exists in Riverdale. That's why we couldn't find it on the web."

"Okay, well, that is a weird coincidence."

"It's not a coincidence, it's all connected. It's all one big narrative that's still being written and played." I said honestly

"Okay, you need to calm down, Jug. Saph Who's telling you this?"

"The game. The more we play, the more familiar we become with Eldervair and its rules, the more we see the patterns. The more we understand him or her, and how we'll catch the Gargoyle King. This game is their psychology. It's their imagination. It's how they view Riverdale."

"My mom was right, this game messes with your head."

"No, no. This is the clarity I needed, this is the truth. G&G's myths, they are our stories. They're our parents' stories. Simple logic, Betty. How do you catch a Game Master? You become a Game Master yourself. That's what I'm doing. And in the end, when I prove that I'm at his level, I'll come face to face with him."

"Fine. As long as you're safe down here, that's one less thing for me to worry about. So you keep playing. I'm going to go figure this out, starting with our ten suspects."

"Good luck." I told her while the mean time with Fangs and Sweetpea we three were doing archery. We wanted to play off board while laughing then we heard

"Oh, next time I'll get it."

"What's going on here, fellas? Saph?"

"Toni and I were in her tent having a rendezvous..."
