graveyard part five

[gamehead]

hunter's game the graveyard You wake up in an unfamiliar cabin. At first, it almost seems like you're in an entirely different place and that everything had been just a dream. The interior of the cabin looks nothing like the run-down, old-timey shacks that you had been living in before. Everything in here is sleek and modern, from the enormous flat-screen TV mounted on the wall to the fridge and mini-bars stocked with all your favorite foods. There aren't any individual rooms in here, just a common area large enough to house everyone comfortably, no matter how many more people join you...and there will be plenty more people joining you before the week is over. Because if you look outside the window, it quickly becomes clear that not only are you still in Prayer's Pass, but that you are no longer among the realm of the living. Judging from the tombstones directly outside, you're now in what had been the abandoned broken-down cabin in the graveyard. The cabin's not all that changed; the world outside has gone completely grey and everything you see appears to be faded and blurry. The only things that remain sharp and in color are what's inside the cabin, including your fellow ghosts. Occasionally, people who are still alive may enter, but it's clear that what they're seeing is completely different from what you're seeing. The door's unlocked; however, a mysterious force prevents you from stepping beyond the threshold, no matter how hard you may try. After all, this cabin is a cage for the dead - a gilded one, perhaps, but a cage nonetheless. On the flat-screen TV plays everything that is currently happening in the town. It will shut off once night starts...and something else will appear instead. (The graveyard so far)

I've had my turn, unfortunately, or else I'd consider it in a very serious manner.

That was before the incredibly grand gesture that brought you here, in case you're curious. I gave up some memory to unlock the gallery. All I did for you was encourage spreading the burden across multiple people.

[Beat. She throws her mind waaaaaay back and...]

Thank you for finding my diary, by the way.

[vytis]

Oh, you're welcome--it was no trouble, really. What was in the gallery? I suppose you opened that sometime after I died?

[speakveryclearly]

Yes, right after - you've heard by now there were two triple rounds for a total of six? I was part of the first. The gallery functioned almost as a second trophy room... but it was the resting place of several very good other clues.

[vytis]

[Lithuania nods.] Hopefully those remaining will be able to figure things out, then. Thank you for opening one of the buildings.

[Not that he was there to take advantage of it or anything, but still.]

[speakveryclearly]

You should really be thanking Kyouko. Her gloves are associated with the absolute lynchpin therein.

You're one of the only people who has the honor of actually being universally popular here. You did your best for everyone.

[vytis]

I hope it ends up being worth it. As long as I helped a little, though, it's better than doing nothing at all.

[speakveryclearly]

Here's to hope. [Raising her glass.]

Į sveikatą! [Lithuania hasn't had anything to eat or drink yet, but that will not stop his good mood.]
