👁️🗨️ Prompt 2: The Whispering Kitten 👁️🗨️
While keke from Fliptide and its accompanying isle can go to space like everybody else, the hole in the Effect is more to the west towards Bumpytown and Uptree. As such, it's a bit more out of the way for beach-going residents. Sometimes, the huge cat can be seen in the sky, defending her territory, so that's a little spooky. But there's something possibly spookier affecting the locals: random people at random times are hearing a voice in their heads. The communication feels a lot like using one's cheek pouches, but keke can't seem to communicate back to this little whisperer... If they try, they usually just end up talking to the nearest animal, much to its confusion
"She's looking for me." The unknown creature frequents saying "I don't know where I am..." The statements are sometimes accompanied by the faintest flashes of images. Some keke report seeing the indistinct shape of a kitten with one eye on the right of its face, one in the center of its forehead. Others claim seeing a scene of ancient-looking bricks - some sort of dark, round-walled chamber with clumps of moss and climbing vines. Obviously, following this trail of mysterious clues comes with a degree of danger. What's going on here...? To others, the answer is clear. There's an animal that needs help...!
TL;DR: Some keke in Fliptide/Villa Isle are seeing and hearing things in their heads about a lost kitten seeking help

👁️🗨️ Prompt 3: A Trail of Visions 🌊
With not much else to go on, keke searching for the missing kitten mostly must resort to just sort of... looking around. Areas with known brickwork are checked, including the underwater temple. These don't seem to be the correct answers, but thankfully, some keke are seeing and hearing more. A few people have wandered out at seemingly random and picked up more from the awol kitten. The mental link seems to grow stronger, if only be degrees. These areas of influence seem to be closer to the far west edges of the beach, where the sea turns into river. Near the mouth of the channel, the ground... moves... It's hard to describe. Something about the grass and dirt shivers and trembles. Sometimes it's divots and sometimes it's spikes. "It's an illusion." The voice tells you quietly "You must move past."
The look of the effect gives you reason to hesitate, but those that have the courage to move forward pass through it as if it were water. One second, you're aboveground watching the image and the next, you're in some sort of cave with it rippling over your head. The look is eerie, but the kitten coaxes you onward with flashes of word, image, and emotion. You're closer, keep going
TL;DR: Keke venturing along the westward beach find the mental link growing stronger. They're lead to an illusion in the ground with a cave behind it

👁️🗨️ Prompt 4: One Final Trick 🔆
Some of these weird caves that keke have been lead to in the recent past have had lights left behind. Not so in this case... With the entrance obscured by the illusion, the passage is almost pitch black. This makes navigation difficult, especially since the tunnel rapidly descends. It winds downwards sharply, sometimes even dropping off into small chasms. This is no place to be without caution. What's worse is that there feels like there's... something else in you head now. Aside from the kitten coaxing you on, that is. You feel you see things in the dark. You feel you're being watched... Sometimes, you swear you can see the glint of eyes or a movement in the shadows. Concerningly, the feline has nothing to add about these things like it did for the entrance illusion. It doesn't seem to address them at all...!
The deeper you go, the worse it gets. At one point, you think you hear a growl echoing off the endless walls - something unfamiliar, but distinctly predator-like. Those who forge on find their fear response contentiously poked and prodded at until their composure breaks. You have to get out of here. Now. Suddenly, you feel a presence filling the cave behind you. What you see varies, but you feel that it's so massive, there's no way you could get past it. A terrifying roar and the spark of eyes forces you to rush deeper into the tunnels. But you find you have little time to do so... you've reached the end! Ahead of you is a solid wall with no other way for you to turn
Just as the imperceptible beast is almost upon you, you come in contact with the stone trapping you. It shatters like glass. Time seems to slow as glowing shards of illusion break free and fly about the passage, tossed by an invisible wind. They cut through the spectre chasing you as if it was nothing, dissipating it. At once, the feeling of clawing darkness and watching shadows disappears. You struggle to regain yourself, scarcely realizing that the walls around you are made of a familiar brickwork. The feeling of fur on your scales makes you whirl around only to see the kitten, nearly two feet tall at the shoulder, rubbing against your coils. You feel a little better, as if you have no option but to do so. "Let's go see the sun." It purrs inside your head
TL;DR: The cave makes you feel very afraid... It feels like something's down there with you! The "something" chases you until you hit a dead end, which turns out to be an illusion. You break it by running into it. Past it is the missing kitten who seems to dispel the fearful imagery
