GRAVEYARD - END GAME

It's been a long stay.

Seven weeks have elapsed since the gates to Aira Niluc were opened to guests of various worlds, and for seven weeks a game of trust and betrayal have whittled the living's numbers down until only a mere third remained on that side. And in exchange, the population of the dead grew as they continued their story on this side.

But the story is coming to a close, almost as if the world itself demands it.

Because sometime Friday morning, oddities start to become apparent within the fabric of this space: buildings starting to deteriorate as their colors start to fade, foods beginning to molder and rot, trees and mountains far in the background flickering briefly show sketch-like outlines before reverting back to normal. While most of the main locations remain fairly intact, there is no area on this side that lays untouched by the sense that this place is starting to unravel, bit-by-bit.

Still, the walls that separate you all from the living hold fast even now, not allowing any of the dead to cross through into the other side.

Perhaps that's not the point here, though. After all, you all still have your own ending to write, here and now.

[Sometime on Friday after riftwatch has concluded, residents of the dead side might notice a faint glittering trail left suspended in the air. Though it meanders about the residential area, those who follow it will find that it eventually leads to the General Store's front door, which has been left slightly open.

Venturing inside, there's the familiar sight of Ferry just sitting on edge of the store's back counter, swinging their legs idly as they watch the front entrance with a disgruntled expression. Once enough people have filtered in and assuming no one tries to shank them or something, they'll finally get up and speak.]

I'm sure you've all noticed by now, but this game isn't going to last much longer. And since everyone failed at retrieving the crystal during that last mission, that means we're all just stuck here now!

[A pause as they tilt their head slightly.]

Well, maybe there's one thing we can still do. I can set up a way for us to observe the living. That way, we can see when they've weakened or beaten the void monster. Since this place seems to be collapsing anyways, there's a chance that we can still break through once that monster is defeated.

I know it's not that reassuring to say we just need to sit and wait for a chance, but that's our only choice now! So who's with me?

[Will your character go along with Ferry's plan or not?

If not, please note what the character would do instead.

In addition, the final deadline for the votes are Saturday at 12:00 PM EST/9:00 AM PST, but please try to get them in earlier if possible.]

[ +1 for ferry's plan

LIKE FUCKING HELL HE WILL YOU DUMB UGLY CATERPILLAR ASS BITCH ]

ON SECOND THOUGHT HE'LL BE RUNNING AWAY. ]
