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.]]

There's only so much we can do here. I'm sure they would appreciate being remembered, at the very least.

[ She purses her lips. ]

I would just rather there be something more we can do. I don't like sitting here powerless, like this.

Likewise. Though the only option we have that may be close at hand is asking Hamelin for an intercession, assuming he would permit us to use a wish on that. Even so, that seems more insulting than anything, and involves trust that frankly hasn't been earned.

I doubt it would be that easy. [ Not that killing and avoiding getting caught is easy, but like. Relatively speaking. ] He said it himself at the beginning that the wishes would only be granted at the end of all of this. And given what happened to Nageki...

I don't expect anything about this to be easy, bluntly put. That said, we've already lost so many here...

[He doesn't finish wherever he was going with that; this whole thing seems to be a lot.]

...I noticed that your hand seems to be better.

[ She nods, letting him change the subject. She holds up the fingernail-less appendage in question, looking at the banding on her fingers. ]

... I figured it would be best not to let it incapacitate me any further than it already has, in the event something happens tonight.

[ and look where it got her! ]

[alas, poor morgan.]

That seems for the best. Hopefully it won't come up during any trial that may ensue, but I'll be sure to mention it if it does.

[ smfh ]

I appreciate it. I would rather it not create any unnecessary problems, with as close as things have been as of late.

[ looks to tomorrow and sweats ]
