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.

[ideismo]

Things are going well enough.

[He has nothing to complain about tonight, other than the usual...everything worth complaining about. The party is nice.]

I've found myself becoming partial to these gatherings we've been having.

[sempiternel]

Any particular reason why?

[ She's curious! He doesn't say a lot, but when he does speak, he's always very thoughtful about his words, which she appreciates. ]

[ideismo]

[He hasn't really had a way to express this; he isn't really sure he can now. But it is what it is, and Yuri is a good enough person to take a shot at expressing it to.]

...It reminds me of before I had my current station. I was very dedicated to saving people then, as I am now, but it felt different at the time.

I suppose it reminds me of what it was like to see others as more than an obligation.

[sempiternel]

Ah. While you may care for all of your people as a whole, it is impossible to assign affection and importance to each individual. Thus, they become more of... a concept you have to protect.

Whereas here, the numbers are few. Something like that?

[ideismo]

Something like that, yes.

[...Not really at all like that, but he's willing to deem it close enough.]

The whole process is overcomplicated; sometimes it's nice to not have to consider things too deeply. That's also a part of it.

[sempiternel]

Oh, yes, to be sure! This may seem frivolous, but I think it still serves an important purpose.

[ideismo]

We all do seem to need something like this once in a while, don't we? Whether it's the unity or the simplicity of it.

[sempiternel]

I'm grateful for it. I really appreciate Lord Jack stepping up and organizing this.

[ideismo]

He's been in charge of organizing this a few times now hasn't he?
