GRAVEYARD - END GAME

GY FAQ

Weeks 2-5

Weeks 6-7

Friday

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.

You know what, I give up. This is way above whatever I signed up for.

[gemuinemanagement]

[Reaches over and pulls on his cheek.]

[mearry]

Let go of me!!!

[ he’s hissy and anxious, sorry suga. ]

Did you see that fucking thing!? Tell me you did, because it doesn’t seem like any of you realized that we’re fighting some fucked up bug like it’s a video game boss!!!!

[gemuinemanagement]

[He lets go, but he doesn't look any more impressed.]

OK
You don't have to do anything
You can hide behind me and I'll fight it for you

[mearry]

You’ll get yourself KILLED! [ wait. wait wait wait wait wait ]

God, can we even get killed in this place again?

[ does it matter? ]

Now we have NOTHING! If we even DO manage to get back to the living side, what are we going to do!? HAUNT THEM?

[gemuinemanagement]

It's better than sitting around and waiting for this place to fall apart
Panicking isn't going to help, Yuuta

[mearry]

Fine! FINE!

[ he laughs, manic. ]

What do you want to do!? Try to grab the bottles of alcohol and set her fucking store on fire with her inside!? You think that’s a fucking good idea!?

[gemuinemanagement]

That's not a bad idea actually
'Death by conflagration'
Thank you for helping

[mearry]

What.

[gemuinemanagement]

The riddle we found in the ice maze
Death by conflagration
'Then seek comfort in pitch dark'
Like that rift?

[mearry]

[ he huffs. ]

I don’t think she’d fit through there. But I don’t think caterpillars are known for their eyesight either.

[laytorest]

We will handle her, C-ta.

[She reaches out - if he allows it, she will place a hand on his shoulder, giving it a brief, light squeeze.]

This isn't exactly what we had in mind, but we trained for this, remember? We have combatants. If you need to, you know a few things about fighting to protect yourself long enough to escape.

I promise you, I will protect you this time. All of you will make it out of this.

[mearry]

[ mom yor is good. at least she gets c-ta to see some reason but…

still frustrating. he genuinely feels lost on what to do…but maybe he has no choice but to take it one step at a time. ]

[laytorest]

Ferry lied to us, but everyone is working hard now to find a way out. There are still people you can rely on, so please leave this to us.

[warmthbringer]

C-ta...

We'll get through this. I know we will. It's a lot, even I feel overwhelmed... and I don't like burdening people. Especially people I care about. But it's okay to lean on others.

[ He holds his fist out... ]

So.... lean on us. I know we can do this.
