GY ENDGAME POST
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.

They're still better off than we are, so we'll just have to put our trust in them! After all, they at least still have their bodies, unlike everyone else here.

[Rika finds that interesting—-‘everyone else here’, rather than ‘you guys’.]
Hm! Your hair’s really soft and pretty, Ferry...how’d it get like that?
no subject
Um... it's just like that? Magic can be really convenient when keeping up your appearance, though.

It was from this place, actually. I was given some magic so I could play my role in this game.
no subject
Who gave you that magic, Ferry?
no subject
Huh? The one who's in charge of this place, obviously.

[Rika pretends to be surprised. And she is a little bit surprised that Ferry would admit it easily.]
So then were you...not a fairy before this?
no subject
I was still a fairy, but I didn't have this kind of magic before. I could do this, though!
[And they start glowing a pale bluish color and letting off sparkles similar to the ones seen in the glitter trail that led to the store.]

[Rika gives a tiny little clap at Ferry’s trick. Clap clap clap!]
So what was your world like, if there are fairies there?
no subject
Hmm, I already talked about it a little before, but it's similar to this one! I know some people found this place kind of weird when they got here, but this isn't that far from what I know. ...Well, I'm still not sure what some of those weird machines in the kitchens are, actually.
no subject
Though, I can’t help wondering how you met that monster in the mirror in the first place...and how you ended up in the situation you’re in with it.
