the mark of those who cannot be saved

[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, that's no excuse for truancy! Which is to say: you are still in the school.

For those executed, you will wake up in your beds. The dormitories look exactly as they did when you first arrived, without any of the changes or personal effects you and your dormmates might have made. The only real difference is that the little cot in Ambassador isn't there.

For those who were victims, you will wake where your body was discovered. All of your injuries are gone, and you feel fine. It's almost like you're still alive - but you remember what happened to you. It couldn't have just been a dream, could it?

The school looks much as you remember it, save perhaps for a few key differences. For one, there's no groundhog murals anywhere. Where things were green on the other side, like banners or paint, you'll find that here they're blood red.

The doors, for the moment, are still locked. Looks like even death couldn't free you.]


Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4
| Week 5

(( ooc: Welcome to deadland, everyone! It mostly resembles the school here, and new floors will be revealed after new people die. For example, the second area will unlock after the week 3 dead arrive, and so on. Also, all dead characters will wake up at their actual canonpoint, with all lost memories restored. Have fun being dead! ))
voicerights: (where do you think this will lead?)

Partly.

[Well, isn't that informative. But it goes on a moment later;]

Did Nana reach you?

[ she finally takes a sip of the tea. a few moments later: ]

She did. You trust her?
voicerights: (do you feel the commotion?)

It would make sense, for me to be manipulated so effortlessly, that the Wizard had dealt with me before. [beat] Two 'me's.

[Arms fold behind its back]

In addition, Nana showed no signs of deceit. So, I trust that she believes in what she says. However, I am uncertain if she alone is capable of rescuing us from this place, but that is why we have another plan.
howtheworldwas: (annoyed)

[ Oh there are more SQUIPs....great.......Eurydice does not seem especially happy about this, but then the SQUIP mentions another plan, and that catches her attention immediately. ]

What other plan?
voicerights: (you don't know where it came from)

[A look skywards, and then...softly. As though to itself.]

They say music can alter moods and talk to you
Well, we think it be harnessed to save us, too
And if it can, then as soon as we finish review


[A glance back towards her]

Are you willing to stand with us to begin a coup?

[ If it's not too late
Can I change this fate of mine?


But it is too late. She couldn't survive the winter. She couldn't survive the school. Orpheus tried to walk her out of hell, and that was impossible, too. Eurydice is dead, and right now, she's sick and tired of doing everything she can to change that and failing.

She stares down at that mug, and her shoulders tense up a little, like she's closing in on herself, bit by bit. She closes her eyes, then opens. They're a little damp. ]


Why should it work this time?
