DEADLAND

[Some time after your character dies, they will wake up in their bunk in camp. But something is wrong here, so very wrong.

Venture outside, and you will see that you're still in camp, but it's trapped in a foggy twilight. Time doesn't seem to pass, and it's quiet. Too quiet. No animals, no breeze, nothing.

The only sign of anything living is in the trees, where dozens and dozens of ghostly figures roam. Sometimes they might come into camp, but you'll probably have to go out to meet them if you want to talk to them. They all seem to be watching camp, but are shy and might flicker away if they're approached.

Finally, in the chapel in the lodge, there is a shadowy figure. It looks like a preteen, perhaps? Maybe 11 or 12 or so. But that's about all you can get from it at a glance.

But you're here now, and there are things to do. Where will you start?

[ Oh, that's good. Boa actually smiles in relief. Having any hope at all is already amazing.]

It won't be an issue this week, but next week... If Red tries to make Ichigo or Mitsuru, the boy one, do something to harm the others... That's what we want to prevent.

Okay! I don't think she'll make Mitsuru do anything though. He's one of her favorites.

She's been lying to him the whole time anyway.

[ Spoken with some pretty obvious bitterness.]

She's not saying wrong words. Is that really lying?

[Help this poor child understand 'lying by omission'.]

She knew while she was saying it that it would be impossible for Mitsuru to understand correctly. She wanted him to get it wrong. It amounts to the same thing.

It is. Saying something in order to make someone else assume the wrong thing is a lie. It doesn't matter if it's 'technically true' then.

A lot of you guys do that all the time though. If it's bad, why do you all do it?

[ That gets a thoughtful pause. Always with the hard questions...]

Human beings aren't necessarily only good. Serving your own interests isn't necessarily good.

Sometimes you have to do bad things to protect yourself. But that doesn't mean others have to forgive you for it. It's... just not that easy.

So what's the right thing to do?

[Sorry Boa, they're bitty and still trying to learn the grey areas of morality.]

Uh... Being honest is what 'good people' do, even if it harms them.

[ Boa thinks this is BS but...]
