GRAVEYARD PT. II

GRAVEYARD


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?

Life-sized dolls!

[ he'll let go of rika if she can keep up with them, but if not she's basically getting dragged. ]

It fucking moved when I did! This fucking thing made dolls out of the dead!

What? That's...is that what's going to happen to us?

[She's a little disturbed by that idea, but she manages to run decently once she's got it together.]

Was that...its workshop, then?

If it is, we need to be extra careful to stay away from it!

Right. Then that place is bad news...and our little fairy friend might be too.

[Rika takes the paper out of her pocket.]

"She'll handle her appearance herself." I hate to give him any credit, but Jack might have been onto something saying Ferry is more crafty than she lets on.

Did he say something about her?

When I...asked him some questions, it sounded like he was familiar with Ferry—-makes sense, since they’ve spoken to Hamelin. I’m not about to consider Hamelin our true ally, but it’s likely that Ferry hasn’t been as honest with us as we thought. Especially about her true relationship with the creature.

...Maybe she should be the one we're interrogating. Samidare did say those seals were children too, didn't she...?

[In hindsight, that. Does seem like kind of a red flag, huh?]
