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?

[He smiles a little softly.]

You've just... really come a long way is all. I thought that about Richie, too. When we first spoke, he was just this terrified kid who was getting pushed around by these dumb kids at school. I told him a while ago that he needed to be more confident - to believe in himself some more, but he kinda brushed that off. But he's grown a lot since then.

I guess I haven't really thought much about how much scarier camp must've been for you younger kids.... and on the one hand, I guess it's sad that this place forced you guys to grow up faster, but...

[Moving one arm to ruffle Boa's hair again.]

It's pretty cool to see, too.

[ This somehow manages to be far more embarrassing than any teasing that Boa expected and he's glad he hasn't let go just yet because that means his face isn't fully in view for Lance...

... but then what Lance says also makes him think. For a moment he's silent, then he pulls back properly to answer. ]


Weird... it feels more like the opposite. I've played so many games here that I never tried before. I think I was more grown-up before coming.

[ And yet, it's been fun. Video games, swimming, building sand castles, experiencing fireworks... Boa has never really done any of it before, he's never had fun like that before and now... now it's a cherished memory of a life that's already over. Strange how it goes. ]

There's differen't kinds of growing up though.

[Following suit, Lance lets go of Boa and gives his face a wipe.]

You've learned a lot about friendship and what it means to be close to people. I think I've grown a bit too.

[And not necessarily in a way he likes, but that's neither here nor there.]

[ Friendship sounds pretty childish to Boa, but that is what he was always taught to believe. Ashram said that. Boa doesn't even like or trust Ashram.... so why did he believe in that for so long? That's questions he can puzzle out for himself another day. ]

I never really considered it like that...

[ But anyway... ]

Anyway, back to the point. Take care of yourself. That's what i'm trying to say.

[Kneejerk reactionary tease of "you don't consider a lot of things, Boa" goes unstated. It doesn't feel like the time or place.]

I am. I'lk feel a lot better after the trial, I think. It's just... hard not knowing why she had to die like that.

[He sighs, going quiet for a moment.]

And I guess... I'll get over feeling like I should have never told her to try and help Sol. I don't know if that's what she was doing at the chapel, but...I kinda feel like it is.

... it would explain her clothes for sure.

[ Probably not what Lance wants to hear here, but Boa's too blunt to lie to make someone feel better. Especially not a lie that would make him look dense. ]

But she might have still died another way, elsewhere. It's not like we can rely on anyone to not be a potential killer at this point.
