End Game

The world is black. And then you blink at your plate.

A portion of your favorite dish greets your eyes, albeit in a form you may never have seen it in before. Encased in a thick, wobbling layer of multi-colored gelatin, the food you know and love now sits suspended in its protein-based enclosure as an eccentric re-imagining of the dish. Furthermore, it only takes a glance to see that the rest of the dining table's spread shares this same theme, as every single dish, sweet or savory, finds itself victim to a jiggling Jell-o jail.

Still, you won't have much time to take this all in before a quiet, high-pitched giggling makes its way to your ears, only crescendoing in volume the longer you sit in this oh-so-familiar dining room. It doesn't take much to find the source of the sound either; unlike the other side, this place is absolutely teeming with fairies to the point where the fluttering of their iridescent wings is clearly audible behind the din of their laughter. As you come to your senses, dozens and dozens of beady eyes watch with their tiny faces stretched out in a wide grin, before speaking in unison.

"Welcome, we can't wait to serve you!"

As the fairies erupt in raucous laughter all around you, at least one more thing is readily apparent: however you met your end, your body is completely whole again. You also have company at the table with you, although whether it's desirable company or not may depend on the circumstances surrounding your death.

In any case, there's nothing stopping anyone from leaving the dining room and roaming freely as usual, and most of the same areas that were available to you on the other side are still present here, albeit with some differences. And though your life may have been stolen from you, it still looks like you have a part in this tale, somehow, someway.

So, will you let your story finish here, or will you write your own ending?

Eh, I think you're givin' 'em way too much credit ta be that bloodthirsty. We'd been speculatin' traitors fer weeks but I don't think any actual accusations got thrown around, did they?

[That might've changed this week but. Shrugs in graveyard.]

As embarrassin' as it was fer Alexei, he probably welcomed that distraction, though.

[It took some of the heat off of Raven for a time.]

Oh, it is not out of bloodthirst, but simply expediency and a desire for survival. We have been voting others to be killed all this time -- it's a perfectly acceptable model through which to get rid of anyone undesirable.

With Edelgard and Tenn leading them about, I've no doubt they will do whatever is deemed necessary.

[You'd think it would be bitter or even ironic, but it's perfectly matter-of-fact, if said with a slightly sharper smile.]

As for Alexei, I will say that he seemed to bear no grudge. An interesting fellow to the last.

[reallyfishy]

[Okay he can't speak for Edelgard, but he's absolutely going to get a little prickly on Tenn's behalf.]

Then ya don't know Tenn at all. If that was the case, then he wouldn't have pursued the truth behind what I did.

[He knows Tenn ultimately had a hard time with that, but it was the right thing to do and Raven doesn't fault him for it. That's why Jack's little dig is annoying to him.]

[heroicact]

[He gives Raven a confused little glance; it seems to be sincerely asking why he’s offended, really.]

I was speaking principally of Edelgard, but…

Blindly pursuing truths will not always move you forward, either.
