...I don't know why I turned my communicator on the other day. But, uh... sorry. About that.

Thankfully, it looks like I came back good as new. Like nothing happened. Everyone else has, right?

Yes. I believe so.

It likely wasn't something you could control. We were meant to witness the deaths.

[justazombie]

I think I was... looking for help. It was pretty much too late by then, though, and I wasn't even in the city, so in the end it was a pretty stupid move.

[horus_neferti]

Not a stupid move, perhaps only ineffectual. Do you know what killed you?

[justazombie]

A kid. He was crying.

[horus_neferti]

You were torn up by a crying child? He used the tears to get close to you? I'm sorry. This is almost inappropriate, considering you just came back from the dead.

Do you mind if I ask questions or would you rather I stop?

[justazombie]

It's fine. He was crying, but, when I got near, he suddenly turned and bit at my throat.

[horus_neferti]

So it was clearly a trap. Do you remember what he looked like?

[justazombie]

No, I didn't see his face very well. ...Looking back, I think he was one of those ghosts, though.

[horus_neferti]

No. In a panic, from a sudden attack, that's understandable. Are you sure he was a ghost? That could make things very dangerous for us here, given we're surrounded by ghosts.

Ghosts usually have trouble being solid enough for long periods of time, but it's not unheard of.

[justazombie]

I'm not sure, but I have a feeling he was. I don't really know much about ghosts beyond what's been happening here, though.

[horus_neferti]

Fair enough. Well, for what it's worth and considering the place, Welcome Back.
