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.]

[Zack is getting restless.

At least the last time he was dead he might have probably haunted the living. Here? No clue what the hell the others are doing or anything.

Surely, there must be some way to figure out what the hell is going on without waiting for anyone else to die...

So he figures he may as well check out the nearby pointed structure (the obelisk, not that he'd know the name) first.

But it turns out, the black stuff surrounding the carnival is a dark ocean of some kind. He only took one step, true, but he had to pull his foot out as soon as he realized it's not solid ground.]


DAMNIT! [He groans, stepping back towards dry land for a moment... Guess he needs help again. So off he goes, back to the carnival with a wet leg.]

Hey! Anyone got a boat or something? I wanted to check out the pointed thing over there!
