CHAPTER 5

CHAPTER 5




Almost half of the non-fairy population of Aira Niluc is gone.

Some may be feeling the absence of their fellow participants in this story. Others will stay focused on the wish they want to get. What never changes is that the story goes on, bringing you closer to the end -- and to another chapter. What will it bring this time?

Snow!

Snow as far as the eye can see, a cold blanket covering the new area. Some winter amenities are now available, ready for perusal! But that's not all there's to find: everyone also will find reminders of their homes, of people they know, of happier times.

Of their wishes.

Who will try to reach their wish this time?

[[Welcome to Week 5! 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.

In addition, a reminder that any Murder Proposals for this week are due by Tuesday 3:00 PM EST/12:00 PM PST! However, please note that you have the option of submitting murder proposals for a later week as well.]]

[His smile brightens a bit at that, the traces of sadness gone for the briefest of moments.]

Good. If I could give ya that much, then I'm glad I asked.

["He knows now, Casey. Maybe...maybe things might get better from here on out." He inwardly says as he looks back down at her smiling reflection.

...

Then, in the truest of Raven fashion, he claps a hand on Yeager's shoulder and sighs.]


Can ya believe it, Yeager? Another thing we hafta give Hamelin the barest of minimum credit for.

[And just like that, it's like a switch has been flipped. Raven's back to being aggressively Raven, and he's back to being aggressively Yeager. So he sighs before waving a hand dramatically.]

How truly awful of him! As though this whole situation weren't dreadful enough, he's even forced us to confront such things after a decade of avoiding them! I can certainly never thank him for that - can you imagine the look on his face?

Nope, and I don't even wanna try. But on the other hand, he might be pissed ta find out we actually had a bondin' moment over it instead of givin' inta despair.

[...that sounds so cheesy when he says it aloud, and Yeager can see on his face that he can't believe he even said it.]

[Oh, it's absolutely cheesy. But it's remarkably hilarious right now and the laugh it gets from Yeager is as startled as it is genuine.]

Oh dear, this place really is starting to get to you. Careful, next you'll be going on about writing a better end to our stories, ja?

[Ohhh boy. And all of this in front of Casey...]

Please gimme a good gut punch if I do. I ain't cut out fer bein' the dauntless optimist.

It's true, you really aren't cut out to be the plucky protagonist!

[We've still got some people left who can do optimism everlasting, but at least he doesn't say it!!]

I'll let it go just this once, though~ But don't think I'll take pity on you like this again in the future!
