I commanded the team to be silent in the fog, discovering that naming enemies caused them to manifest. After navigating a treacherous trail and bridging gaps, the team's internal tensions peaked. As Peter defended his friends reputations, the fog manifested dark, evil versions of every Guardian based on their pasts.
Rocket and Gamora were assuming which monsters would be next. I chose to command them to be silent, and it seemed like nothing happened at all as the fog momentarily thinned around us.
We moved forward as the crew understood the fog's power to make named enemies appear. I found some equipment by shooting through debris on my way, keeping my eyes peeled for threats.
There was a steep way to move ahead. This was the first time someone else worked on the risky trail before me, thanks to Mantis leading the way with her unique intuition.
I had to use the power of my gun to destroy the floral plants to clear a path. Once the obstruction was gone, Groot made a bridge so we could pass the gap.
The team fell into another steep slide. I hit several rocks on the way down, struggling to maintain my balance as we reached deeper into the unknown part of the cave.
After reaching the bottom, Mantis mentioned she did not remember this specific part of the path. Her confusion added to the growing tension and sense of unease within the group.
Rocket appreciated what the crew did for him with the water earlier, but he mentioned that following Mantis was officially stupid. His patience with the mission was clearly reaching its breaking point.
Peter started convincing the team to stay together. As he mentioned the team's names, mysterious forms started coming out of the walls, reacting to the mention of the Guardians' identities.
Rocket called Peter a two-bit pirate, and an evil version of Peter was made. Peter countered by calling Rocket a broke bounty hunter, causing an evil version of Rocket to appear.
Peter mentioned Drax was not just a destroyer or a criminal, but a friend. An evil, rampaging version of Drax appeared from the fog as the manifest grew more dangerous.
Peter named Gamora next, speaking of her past hunting and hurting people for revenge. An evil version of Gamora appeared immediately, wielding a massive and terrifying sword against us.
Peter did not forget about Groot, and an evil version of Groot appeared as well. The new version of Peter was shown again as the fog finished creating our worst selves.
I'll show what happens next later.
I personally took all the screenshots from my play and I used a logo of the game from online to use in the thumbnail.
