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.

Twice for me.

[ just said casually while they're hacking away at the barrier with their weapons like you know, nbd. honestly maybe jack's laughter is infectious but he also affords himself a laugh at that??? ]

I agree, having a third death by falling into nothingness would be terribly anticlimatic.

[heroicact]

Oh? Is that counting the deaths here or are you counting in deaths back home?

[I guess this is the type of banter we're going for while weedwhacking a terribly annoying fairy barrier keeping us from running away from the void into... quite possibly the rest of the world collapsing into the void. But that's neither here nor there!

Jack's smile and raised eyebrow flashes over for a moment before he focuses back on the task.]

[ another laugh, hopefully while they're widening the barrier even more? is it large enough yet for them to slip through... ]

Counting my deaths here? Four or five. Including the one from Tuesday.

[ you know. the one in the ice maze. ]

I do hope the horses have been unaffected by [ gestures ] all this.

[Well, hopefully at least big enough to allow an adult or two through -- do they have time to stand here playing THIS HOLE WAS MADE FOR ME with a fairy wall. Do they. My meta is losing control of its life here.]

Ah! Then I believe you have me beat -- I am at a mere four or so, so far, though I am truly surprised that today did not herald more.

[Well, one could go contemplate the jello again or one could deal with whatever is happening behind them (the kids seem to be having fun though, and isn't that the important part??), so.]

It would be a shame to lose the horses after all this...

[He was so looking forward to a ride. Even if he has no actual idea where they're going after this!! Surely it's fine.]
