now let's skip the tears and start on the whole-

[stagemanagers]

[You remember dying. Maybe the memory is clear and bright and your body still aches from the cause. Maybe it was fast enough that you didn't feel it and don't remember what you went through. But no matter how you went out you're still trapped here.

When you open your eyes it might take you a minute to recognize your surroundings. For the executed, it's your dressing room. For the victims, you startle awake in the place your body was discovered. But no matter where you are nothing is where you remember it. It's like everything has been picked up and moved to the other side of the room. The entire room has been perfectly mirrored from what it used to be and, upon leaving, it seems the rest of the opera house is just the same. If you remember one room being in the east wing, it's now in the west. If it was in the west, it's now in the east.


Welcome back to the Opera House, friends. Even in death you're still in the woods.]


WEEK 1 | WEEK 2 | WEEK 3 | WEEK 4 | WEEK 5


[ooc: Welcome to deadland, darlings! It's a perfectly mirrored version of the Opera House and each week, as new people die after new floors have been revealed, the stairwell doors will unlock and allow you to reach them. For example, week 3 victims will unlock floor 2 and so on and so forth. Also, all dead characters will wake up at their actual canon point.

Have fun because we have some fun things planned for you.]

[They get to the top of the stairs and Sigyn just looks down the hall]

Why is this here at all? Did someone build it just for this sick game?

[37773972]

Something else I should have asked. [But he didn't want to push it. Instead, he glances down at the other wing] If I had to guess, though, based on what I was told...I think the Wizard more or less just found out about this sort of thing, and decided to set it up himself? But it makes you wonder-

[He looks back at her]

-where'd he get the idea from?

[reassuranceandrevolution]

From what you told me we aren't the first group this has happened to. Perhaps someone else built it and then abandoned the space?

[37773972]

That's what he told me. He just closed off so much, I was...afraid to push for more, in case I made him mad. [And then he did already]

[reassuranceandrevolution]

Even if you did ask, I don't know if he would answer.

If we could find a way to perhaps contact someone who has been here before perhaps they could help us figure out how to escape. I was writing letters to someone the first week Jonny and I were here. After we met BJ, I though it was him, or maybe Evan, but now we're pretty sure it was someone else.

[37773972]

Maybe. [And that's why he was willing to risk trying again. Sigh. But then...]

...someone else? Are you still writing them?

[reassuranceandrevolution]

[She shakes her head]

After people started showing up, I'm ashamed to say I forgot for a while. I was going to try again when the trial doors opened. Probably drop one in this evening.

[37773972]

It may be the only thing we can do, at this point. I just hope it does something.

[reassuranceandrevolution]

I just hope whoever it is can still answer. And that they want to help us.
