Week 3.
Another week has passed; two more Survivors are gone. Pearl and Caren both had someone to fight for, someone worth killing for; perhaps it's for the best to hope that somehow they've found peace despite not being able to collect on the Kingmaker's incentive. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; there aren't any bodies to be found on Sunday morning. That doesn't mean the night passed easily, though - it seems another piece of your personal puzzle may have fallen into place while you slept... Following that spiral staircase up to the second floor will reveal something strange; those stairs definitely lead far higher than you remember, up to a previously inaccessible third floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; consider it your reward for a job well done. |

[It's gonna go so well.
Also wow, that next bit was a little alarming. Colress can help but raise his eyebrows.]
Sacrifices for black magic? This is the second time I've heard you talk about something along those lines... Magic used for evil, I mean. The first concerned zombies. Do you do all of this research for your novels? Or is it an actual common practice in your world...?

It's kind of a long story.
no subject
You...witnessed black magic rituals firsthand. I trust you...weren't actually involved?
[He does acknowledge the long story part, it's just...please don't leave him hanging with that, Gabriel!]
can you really say spoiler warning for a game that's 23 years old
It's... complicated. I was dating a woman, see. Her name was Malia. [that past tense there probably isn't good] She was the leader of this cartel, as it happens. I sure can pick 'em.
Anyway... she was possessed, somehow. By this ancient witch named Tetelo who put a curse on my bloodline. I don't know what the ritual was for, but she warned me to leave town after a friend of mine was kidnapped-- I interrupted it, but in order to save me, Malia killed herself to prevent Tetelo from ritually killing anyone else.
WHY NOT
That's rough, buddy.
Seriously though, he's not even sure what to say to any of that. He just...can tell that Gabriel has probably told him something pretty deep?]
Ah...I am sorry about Malia. [He's supposed to be sorry about that, right? HE HOPES.] Spiritual possession though, that is truly something astonishing. I can see why you would fear anything black magic-related happening here...
Did that sacrifice in turn break the curse as well?
no subject
But talking about it helps, honestly.]
....Yeah. It broke the curse, gettin' rid of Tetelo.
no subject
[It's really difficult for him to imagine a situation like that. What a tricky spot for Gabriel.]
I apologize that this conversation has appeared to dredge up some bad memories, Mr. Knight. But I do appreciate the story.

Sometimes people are forced to make terrible decisions.
....I guess it's no different than what we've been forced to do twice already.
