A Reckoning...

[You are dead.

Where you awaken is not of your cabin on the train but rather firm earth, the skies above you being nothing but an inky blackness as for as you can see. And yet throughout the darkness, you are surrounded by soft lighting and peculiar music playing all around you. When your senses become less muddled, you will notice that the music playing is upbeat and joyful almost. But let's face it, you are probably thinking this is some sort of creepy hell that you got yourself into after biting the bullet.

It all depends if you find circuses to be such a place because that is where you find yourself. The setting feels more antique than what you may assume a circus to look like, more Victorian themed than what one can be called. First the sound picks up and then you can smell something delectable in the air, catching popped corn and fried sweets and maybe something to drink? It's more than likely here.

Going down the main way, you can see some classic carnival games such as skee ball, ring toss, balloon popping if you are inclined to try and take your mind of the fact that you didn't have a choice in coming here. But despite the joyous air of the circus, there are not many people here that can help you out...or are there?


Lost souls just like yourself who met with the same horrible fate...perhaps an accord can be struck. After all, it looks like you will be here for awhile.]

Oh, I'm not going to count on that. I'm not sure whether you can kill a "ghost".

But it's nice to know he's getting what he deserves.

Well, he... kind of got eaten by a monster. And he hasn't shown up again since.

I will hold out hope for you, at least. Not that I'm all for gruesome deaths, but... he did seem to be a nasty fellow.

I'm just happy to know Clown Purgatory has some sense of divine justice, even if it's accidental or impermanent.

[...Okay, Emma can't help it, she's giggling a little at "Clown Purgatory."]

Y-yes... I suppose that is one way to look at it.

[And then something occurs to her.]

Oh! I haven't introduced myself, yet, have I? Sorry about that.

My name is Emma Millstein. Circumstances aside, it's a pleasure to meet you.

And I am Beatrice the...well, I suppose I handed off all the titles except the one the Conductor gave me, didn't I? That would make me Beatrice The Rose.

Hm...let's just leave it at Beatrice, I think.

Beatrice it is, then! That'll be easy enough to remember.

[Have a smile. This girl is 100% too sweet and genuine. How is she a witch, again?]

[Hey, Beatrice didn't start as a casually murderous hypertroll either.]

So, Emma, is there anything to do around here besides be mildly unnerved?

Ahaha. I wish I had a concrete answer to that, but unfortunately, not really.

Things do happen sometimes. The monster that ate Eddie, for example. Before I arrived, Yotsuyu apparently hit a clown with a car... so I suppose it's a matter of watching and waiting?
