CHAPTER 6
CHAPTER 6
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.
In addition, a reminder that any Murder Proposals for this week are due by Tuesday 3:00 PM EST/12:00 PM PST; this is the last week for murder proposals as week 7 is endgame. Also, please note the shop's discount on magnifying glasses! ]]

[ He still hopes it's something useful rather than nothing...well, he certainly will gain knowledge of something happening, that's for sure. ]
Speaking of wondering, though, there's something I wanted to ask you? There were these blue flower petals I found, and I was wondering if you happen to know anything about them? Or have seen them anywhere? I've come to two others about it, but...
[ He'll take out a bottle to show it filled with these blue flower petals. ]
I do plan on asking everyone else about this too.
no subject
...Where did you find those? As far as I know, they do not grow around here.
no subject
[ ...but judging by that reaction just now maybe she's familiar with them? Or saw them somewhere? Either way he's eager to find out more about 'em. ]
Have you seen these anywhere at all? Do you know anything about them?
no subject
[ Understanding dawns. Yuri touches her collar thoughtfully, taking a moment to recall what she’d read up on the flower. ]
I did look them up once. They’re blue cornflowers and they mean everything from young love to hope. They’re also the flowers that Little Red Riding Hood picked for her grandmother in some editions. Supposedly they have protective properties.
[ That sure didn’t help Raven, yikes. ]
no subject
...I think that does help a lot.
[ Or at least it does in his own personal opinion, so like, maybe it's something for him to think about for later. ]
no subject
Was there anything else in his room?
no subject
Oh...right. I noticed there were no mirrors in his office. If I forget please remind me to mention it at the meeting...
Maybe someone else mentioned it before but I don't think so.
