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.]]
no subject
...Two?
[no.]
no subject
But on the other hand...he'll look at the gathering of charred marshmellows. He has eyes, so he thinks that's more than two just by a glance. ]
...I'm guessing you actually lost count, right?
no subject
[And speaking of the charred marshmallow corpses... this one falls to its death. Press F to pay respects.]
"I've lost count" plus one, apparently!
no subject
...Wow. Well, it can't hurt to try one before the night ends, assuming you haven't already.
[ In retrospect, he's definitely accidentally dropped a marshmallow or two into a bonfire earlier when he first attempted to try to cook one by the fire. ]
Did you get a chance to see that weird thing Jack had by the cabins, by the way?
no subject
Weird thing? No, I haven't seen it. What is Jack up to?
no subject
You can check it out anytime...
[ It's...a sight for certain. ]
no subject
[Is he going to set it on fire??? That's a lot of work just to set something on fire but like. what is the point of it. This is going to drive him mad.]
I'll be sure to do that at some point, then! Thank you for letting me know; it sounds like Jack's been having fun, I suppose!
[is that what the kids these days do for fun........]
no subject
Huaisang wonders vaguely what it'd taste like if someone heated it up. ]
Yep. Though, it also seems like everyone else's been able to kind of settle in and kind of enjoy themselves at the party? Or something.
[ Even Yeager with the marshmallows (?) He's not sure what to call it, honestly, but it's all good here. ]
I guess I'd take that as something in our favor, that we can even still do this sort of gathering successfully.
no subject
I do think it would have been better if we weren't all the way out here in the freezing cold... but I won't complain too much!
[There's something kind of nice about these gatherings, even though every week we'll end up having to deal with at least a few more deaths.]
no subject
In that moment, he understands Yeager wholeheartedly now. ]
That's fair, honestly.
I'll take that as constructive criticism anyway for the next time I help with this sort of thing.
[ Granted, he hopes they all take an escape route and bail before all of that because the note said things are ending, but you know. ]
no subject
[...........maybe he shouldn't have been so rude—]
My apologies, I'm just not very fond of the cold!
[whoops???]
no subject
It's alright, I don't mind.
I think if it's something like complaining about doing it out in an area like this, I won't get offended, I promise.
no subject
[Mostly. He's rude to everyone when he's teasing!!!]
I think Raven's probably suffering even more than I am with the cold, though.
[rip that poor old man]
no subject
[ These two... ]
...Is he going to be complaining about how terribly the cold's soaking into his old bones or something?
[ Rip Raven indeed. Not like he should be talking about him being old because he's like, just two years younger than him. ]
no subject
[guys.......]
Can you imagine? I would hate to be that old.
[yeager is one year younger.]
no subject
Oh, same! I'm glad the both of us are so young?
We're not even close to the age he is.
[ .... they are both ridiculous.
Luckily Raven probably doesn't hear their nonsense right now smh. ]
no subject
Precisely! It truly would be quite horrible to have to deal with all the pains of being such an old man...
