Final Chapter

Like the secrets that spilled out into the open, the night sky above Aira Niluc also seems to be running free; whatever part of the land you find yourself in at night, you'll find that the night sky has been painted with shooting stars. Watching them brings a certain comfort, the feeling of chicken soup on a cold winter day, the nostalgia of meeting an old friend again, a warm fuzzy feeling from your core.

A boost to your spirits is likely welcome at this point, and it seems be the only thing Aira Niluc has to offer you at this as no new locations open up to you this week. There's a certain energy in the air, but not all of that can be blamed on the shooting stars, given the explosion that happened this weekend. For now the chasm in what was once the fountain remains impassable, but who knows when that will change?

[[Welcome to Week 6! Feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. However, please try to keep investigations to Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday! You can also privately contact Hamelin at your leisure through Wednesday of this week.

Also, please note the shop's discount on magnifying glasses! ]]

What do you know about them? These superiors of his.

Unfortunately, I do not know about them directly. He's very vague about the conditions behind his role and I suspect he has to be. But there are clearly powers at play that keep him where he is and that is what I choose to call them for the time being.

I do however know that he calls the mirror creature 'B'. B feeds off people's essence. You might have to face her, at the end of this.

She seems to have a very particular liking for children.

Oh, really? Of course she does.

[ Not that he had any fondness of the mirror creature before, but this is truly the icing on the cake. ]

Do you know why?

“If only you were a child... then perhaps you’d come and allow me to give you a happier life,” is what she told me. She was also rather fond of calling me “dear” and acting sympathetic and caring - like a mother scolding her child for misbehaving.

[Hey what the fuck.]

A happier life...? Sounds like a bad joke to me.

...That seems to be the case.

Back then, when I spent that time as that girl and saw what I did, that monster had seemed eager to drain the energy of those children. Even though there were other people around.

Yes... Even though we’ve lost so many to her game, she says she is starving still.

...I don't suppose you would happen to know more about it's abilities?

I don't.

But I do know it's related to the mirrors. The void that took Lucifer at that dreadful failed execution? That was her.

Hamelin advised us to never be in front of a mirror alone. I assume that is when she can suck somebody into the mirror like she has done for a number of us.
