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.

You might as well just accept it

Either way, I'll be all right. We've spoken somewhat about fixing things; we'll just have to see what can be enacted and what can't.

For now, there's the more immediate concern of trying to get as many of us as we can through this alive.
gemuinemanagement: (people come and people go I know)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-08 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
For better or for worse, it seems like we don't have much time left in this game
ideismo: (17. Among the thoughts and tears)

[personal profile] ideismo 2021-07-08 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
It seems so.

...We should likely try to enjoy ourselves tonight, then. While the lot of us are still here.
gemuinemanagement: (where is the dream)

We should

Yeager taught me how to play poker
ideismo: (18. Of those I've served)

[personal profile] ideismo 2021-07-08 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
...I don't see why not.

[He hasn't played poker in so goddamn long, Suga, but yes, sure, let's do that.]
gemuinemanagement: (she makes the sound)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-08 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[that's okay, Suga has no poker face, they can both struggle and fail at it!!]
ideismo: (17. Among the thoughts and tears)

[personal profile] ideismo 2021-07-08 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[an entire round of suffering later...]

...My luck remains abysmal as ever, I see.
gemuinemanagement: (to calm me down)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-08 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Mine's not much better
I guess it just has to be better than the other player's though
ideismo: (20. Behind the faces I've assumed)

[personal profile] ideismo 2021-07-08 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose that's true.

[......]

Thank you. For the game, and for coming over.
gemuinemanagement: (when you're not here)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-08 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course
I'm always happy to hang out with you


[It doesn't need to be anything important, and they don't need to talk about serious matters if they don't want to.]
