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.

We don't have actual balloons, but there are plastic bags from the goldfish scooping game at Onigashima.

Yeah! When in doubt, use what we can, right? I can't fight as well as we probably need, so... I'll get a bunch of those together.

I'm in a similar boat, so I can help with that... It's just too bad our salt hoard won't work with this plan.

Mm! I'm counting on you, Nageki--let's make as many as possible and show Ferry-san she shouldn't mess with us!

Right, it doesn't change what we set out to do: to leave with everybirdie here. Let's do our best.

[ Ah, actually, considering where they are right now... ]

...I just had a strange thought. Mister Nanase, how do you feel about making snowballs?

Ah...!!

[ His eyes light up, which is strange, considering the situation. ]

Aha, to be honest... I never got to play in the snow as a kid because of my asthma. So, I'm definitely in! Let's make my first snowball fight one to remember!

I think we can do that and more. I've only been in a snowball fight once, but Miss Furude showed me how to make better snowballs. We can set up our ammo here and there to use whenever Ferry shows up.

Heh, I believe in us, Nageki. Let's make lots of snowballs, and not give Ferry-san a chance to recover!
