7th Song

[A lovely voice drifts in singing this. She sings it for awhile and then eventually falls quiet.]

That last curse was so unpleasant. A part of me wonders if... it was some kind of punishment.

[Soft shuffling of her clothes as she moves.] I suppose I didn't die... so I should be thankful.

So why do I feel... [Soft sigh.]... What is

What's this about not dying?

[jewelofhou]

I'm thankful I didn't...

[child_radical]

I wasn't paying attention that day when people started to leave their pocket dimensions. What happened exactly?

[jewelofhou]

Oh...

There was another place... If you opened the door to the room you were in, you entered into this odd place. And then... it filled with dirt. We were buried alive.

[child_radical]

So you became trapped only to nearly die. Gotta love the insanity of this month.

[jewelofhou]

So it seems. Luckily we were able to dig ourselves out, but... it was a bit... frightening.

This month has been particularly bad.

[child_radical]

At least there hasn't been an invasion by aliens or killer reindeer yet.

[jewelofhou]

... Aliens? Killer what?

This place was invaded by aliens last year based on what I've heard. And reindeer are just animals that wouldn't surprise me being made to crave human flesh some day here.

Also, who are you exactly. I don't know your name, only that you were stubborn as Hell when you first came here.

[jewelofhou]

Oh. I'm... not really sure what 'aliens' are referring to. And I would hope the City wouldn't be that silly...

O-Oh... [She sounds a little ashamed that he knows her from before.] My name is Shoukei. I deeply apologize for never introducing myself. And you are?

[child_radical]

Huey Freeman.

[jewelofhou]

It's, uh... nice to meet you properly, Huey.

[child_radical]

Likewise, Shoukei.

[jewelofhou]

And I apologize for my behavior when we first met. For what it's worth.
