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.]

She reaches for her sword, subconsciously, but finds no scabbard to her side. It feels naked, the same sort of unease one would expect in those dreams where you have to take a test you didn't study for.
Without much else to expect, she starts walking toward the horizon. ]
no subject
I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY, YOU JACKASS!
[Yes. He is yelling as you walk off.]
no subject
She didn't want to have to face you again. But if the whole reason she proposed that duel in the first place was because just straight-up murder would be dishonorable, then running away from the guy she killed probably also fits that description.
She turns to Zack, but cannot bring herself to look him in the eye.
Regret's a hell of a thing, ain't it? ]
no subject
She is lucky he just got murdered and is now unarmed somehow.]
no subject
There's not a whole lot she can say that wouldn't immediately make the situation worse, is there? ]
...I might have fucked up.
[Just the tiniest whisper, but congratulations, Zack: you got Tali to say a swear.]
no subject
He's crossing his arms and glaring daggers.] Yeah, I'm pretty sure you did fuck up!
no subject
[That's not going to change anything and she knows that, but it needs to be said.]
...I'm not sure what comes next.

...Eliza?!
[frankly she's just surprised to see you at all-
wait shit]

But I challenged Zack because I saw the chance to liberate all of us.

[She manages to avoid being hit in the face, but the punch still catches her shoulders as she dodges.]
Did he tell you about our agreement.
