CHAPTER 6

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

The dead now outnumber the living.

There's only one area that stayed a mystery until now. A new path revealed itself, leading to another town, surrounded by sturdy stone walls. Even from some distance away you can see the tower, rising high towards the skies. The path that leads to the city turns into gold before long, and the sky itself seems to take a beautiful tone, like it's painted with watercolors. It's such a peaceful-looking town, welcoming you with open gates. It must be nice to have another urban setting, after living in the same place for so long.

But no matter what you find it doesn't change the situation you're in. Now that your numbers are dwindling that's impossible to forget.

The story is nearing its end. There still are a handful of pages left. What will they bring?

[[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.

Most people aren't allowed to have weapons

[biyishuangfei]

...But why?

[ He doesn't like to touch weapons, but the idea of not being able to use one if you have to is scary. ]

[gemuinemanagement]

Well
You could hurt someone?

[That seems self-explanatory...]

[biyishuangfei]

I think I should be the last person to be so confused about this sort of thing...but here I am.

[ He doesn't wield a saber but he's grown up surrounded by people who use them. ]

Maybe because my world is different. And it sounds like it'd be hard if someone got weapons when they weren't supposed to, and attacked someone else...

[gemuinemanagement]

Right
It's easier to keep people from having weapons in the first place

[biyishuangfei]

By the way, how many forms are you going to go for? I imagine it'll be more difficult the more you add...

[gemuinemanagement]

I think just two
It's already really difficult

[biyishuangfei]

That's fair. What are the two forms going to look like when done?

[gemuinemanagement]

A sword and a briefcase
Not very creative, I know

[Doing what Yeager did seems easiest...]

[biyishuangfei]

Hmm...well, it could be worse. Like for example, having all the forms just be different sized swords.

A briefcase sounds a little fun.

[ Even if Yeager already came up with it. ]

[gemuinemanagement]

I'm not like Yeager
I can't use a weapon that's as big as me

[How does he do that... that's so anime...]

[biyishuangfei]

I...think Yeager is really one of a kind. Or at least close to one.

[ He can think of like two people who can manage that. ]

It doesn't even look like he breaks a sweat when he whips all of those things out.

[ It's a wonder how long that took to master... ]

[gemuinemanagement]

I'm kind of jealous
I wish I was that strong...

[biyishuangfei]

...Well, I think sometimes even raw power isn't always enough.

That's why it's good for other people to have strength in other areas. But, I understand why you would say that.

[gemuinemanagement]

I know
Yor was strong
But she wasn't able to protect everyone she wanted to

[biyishuangfei]

[ He'll nod ]

I do remember that, yes.

[gemuinemanagement]

If she couldn't do it
I wouldn't be able to either

[biyishuangfei]

...I don't know if you'd be able to or not for sure.

I do know it'd be best not to try how she did. But, if you don't try at all in some other way, you'll never really know.

[ ... ]

I just don't think her failing means you're doomed to fail yourself, that's all.

[gemuinemanagement]

I wouldn't be able to protect through raw strength
But if I can protect through convincing people not to kill
That would be better, I think

[biyishuangfei]

I think so as well. We really can't afford to lose too many people, as far as I'm concerned.

[ It goes without saying there needs to be caution in doing that but they both know that, so!! ]

[gemuinemanagement]

The dead outnumber us now

[It's a sobering realization.]
