cover your mouth if you cough or sneeze.
Sorry about the lateness, but here's the next post!
The museum fire was put out, but not before considerable damage was left: some of the collapsed wings that haven't been explored much and documented, the Furniture Of The Ages wing is completely gone, and the room full of weapons and maps? A section of the floor collapsed.
Which is weird, because it was on the ground floor.
But, check it out: the part that collapsed actually covered a hidden trapdoor, revealing a staircase. It's concrete and still intact (and stable). Check that out-it goes down two flights. At the bottom is a door. It's not locked.
Open it.
It's a bunker.
The lights still work after a few seconds, so feel free to use them-there are no windows, after all, and you're underground. The entrance leads to a small airlock type room with nothing in it. After that is a small hallway-to the left and to the right. If you go left, you'll see a flight of narrow stairs going up, and opposite them, a storage room. The room contains the bunker's generator and some gas, medical supplies, cans of food, and has posters taped up to all the walls telling you what to do if you get chemicals in your eye, have to bandage a wound, how to sterilize water, and other informational things. They're illustrated with cartoons of smiling people.
We'll get back to the stairs in a moment.
If you go right down the hallway, you'll find a bathroom-three dirty shower stalls, a row of toilet stalls, sinks, cracked mirrors, dried blood, some cleaning supplies and a box of rubber gloves-and more posters telling you how to wash your hands and keep germs from spreading-and the bunker's main room: a few metal desks and chairs, a couple of ratty sofas, a television, and a bookshelf with musty paperback novels and a couple of board games, a dining table that can seat six. The other half of the room contains a dozen bunkbeds (so 24 beds in all).
You will also find thirteen corpses.
They're long rotted, mostly skeletons with dried flesh, eight men and five women. Those of you who can tell such things will be able to tell that they ages fall between preteen and around sixty: all different types of clothing and appearances. From what's left to tell about them. Nine of the bodies are in the beds; the youngest two (girls, preteen and teenage) are tucked in. An older man lies on one of the couches, on his stomach. One woman is hunched over a desk. One man is lying on the floor.
The last body is at the bottom of the stairs. Unlike the other bodies, which don't appear to have any injuries in particular, this one has had his throat cut, deep enough to almost take off his head. This might explain the blood in the bathroom. He's shoved under the stairwell, curled up unnaturally, as though no one knew what to do with the body and just stuck it somewhere out of the way.
Anyone and everyone is allowed to explore, loot, and check out this bunker. It's dusty and smells, but there's nothing lurking in it. The five people who signed up for the event, however, have items to discover in the bunker!
England gets to find a stack of posters in the corner of the storeroom. They were clearly meant to be hung along with all the other safety posters, but never were-half of them show what look like headshots of beautiful models with lovely skin and tops, and bloody stumps for necks. They are headless.
The other half are simpler black on yellow background warning posters:
THE FIGHT WON'T END WITHOUT YOUR HELP!
IF YOU SEE SOMEONE COUGH, REPORT THEM IMMEDIATELY!
ATROPOS IS DEADLY! REMEMBER THE WARNING SIGNS! REPORT TO THE HOSPITAL IMMEDIATELY!
DON'T LET ACCIDO WIN!
Chihiro gets to discover a video camera. It's an absolutely normal digital model with a little battery remaining. Play back the film and you'll watch the following:░░░░░░░░░░░
The camera is shaky. The bunker is fresh, new, and inhabited by people. The voice of a young girl starts narrating.
"-okay got it. So this is our fortress of solitude. Home sweet home, right? Cozy concrete."
The view spans over the bunker. The camera moves closer to a teenaged couple kissing.
"Here's my sister, Hannah. Right now she's trying to single-handedly repopulate the world."
Hannah flips off the camera.
The girl speaking now whispers loudly: "She lets her boyfriend touch her boobs when nobody's looking-"
Her sister gets up, putting a hand over the camera: "Get out here you stupid little-!"
░░░░░░░░░░░
It's darker. Only a few lights are on. A woman who appears to be in her thirties writing at a steel desk. The view moves to another man writing in a journal by flashlight. His hair is gray, but he still appears relatively young. It then turns to her own face, dimly illuminated by the other lights.
"I really miss television, even though all the good shows started airing reruns after everyone started freaking out about contamination. It's been a week and I've got nothing to do. Nothing. And now the battery is running low. Great."
░░░░░░░░░░░
A few people are clustered around a board game. Others are playing cards. The camera shakily moves to a woman with dark hair.
"Hey Mom, what time is it?"
"My watch stopped working yesterday, I have no idea, honey."
"Actually I was gonna say, it's time for you to check the bathroom because I saw Matthias follow Hannah in like two minutes ago."
The woman angrily gets to her feet. The young girl laughs herself silly while chaos ensues. Everyone goes quiet as air raid sirens start. They shuffle around the room, grumbling and packing things away.
"Not again. This is like the third drill this--"
A dull roar is heard in the background. Suddenly a deafening boom shakes the room. The camera is dropped. The lights go out. Everyone is screaming.
…After that, nothing.
Dante gets to find a letter, on the desk that the one woman's body is draped over. On one side of the paper is an letter written in black in; on the other is a smudged note written in dull pencil.Emily,
It's getting worse isn't it? Don't try and deny it it isn't a question, I can hear the sirens every day and the planes more often than not you need to get out of there. Come here. It's safe here, most of the city doesn't even know about the farm and Accido DEFINITELY doesn't.
You'll be safe here. I don't care about your job and those other excuses, this is a WAR Emily and you have to face reality. It's bad and it's going to get worse. I promised your sister I'd take care of you and you promised her you'd stay safe. We all make sacrifices and you need to get out of Discedo while you still have the chance.
- Klaus
The reverse:Klaus I'm sorry I can't leave it's too late I tried to but it's too late we're in the bunker it's bad. No I'm sure it'll be fine don't you worry I'll finish this letter and mail it out in a day or two when things get better but someone died and the sickness is
Koide will find a diary on the bookshelf, mixed in with the other novels:( Much of the diary is worn away. These are the few pages that can be read in there entirety. Should you browse through the other pages, all you'll catch are small glimpses into his life. His wife is named Anisha, he plays the piano, and he could "drink apple cider until the end of days. Which, it appears, is upon us." )
Day 5:
It's almost impossible to believe that it has been less than a week since any of us have seen sunlight. We have all fallen into our own routines that make it seem as though we've spent our whole lives in here. I suppose the constant reminders of our impending demise and the utter anarchy above. Compared to that, this is a welcomed normalcy.
Day 15:
An airstrike has knocked out our power. Flashlights are plentiful, but the main worry is the air. We have the generator too, but the gas shouldn't last long. I don't what would be worse: to die of the disease, or to die of slow suffocation. Emily is trying to keep us all positive, but the possibilities are bleak.
Day 16:
We have run out of apple cider.
There is a hell worse than war, and this is it.
Day 23:
( A fingerprint in blood marks this page )
My hand is shaking. I don't think I can recount what has happened in the past few days. Matthias got sick. People began to panic and argue what to do about it.
Someone killed him during the last air raid. It may have been Dorothy, given the risk her daughter takes for him, but I have a feeling it may have been more than just her. I can't think about it. It makes me sick because I am relieved that he's dead. What have we become in here?
They're trying to figure out what to do with the body.
Hannah hasn't stopped crying.
Day 28:
I coughed blood this morning. I hope there's cider in heaven.
( The next page is an amateur sketch of a penguin. )
The remaining pages are blank.
Finally, Sho gets to climb the stairs and open the door at the top. It's locked, so… have fun picking it or breaking it open. There's another storage space, with more food supplies-clearly picked and taken from, not fully stocked-some blankets and towels, and a second doorway, with NO ADMITTANCE painted on it.
Go on in anyway.
It's a television studio.
There's a desk with two chairs on a raised platform, there's a section off to the side with a greenscreen, there are television cameras and spotlights, folding chairs, evidence of a trash can fire in the middle of the room, with scraps of burnt paper around it, two dressing rooms (one of them with a star reading MOLLY), a janitor's closet, and-over the desk-a familiar sign reading CHANNEL 8 NEWS: DISCEDO.
There's no one in it, no bodies, no power, but everyone should be easily able to recognize it as the location that spectavi is filmed from.
Other than that, it's empty. There's another staircase at the opposite end of the room, but it's broken. Going by the location, it leads to another hidden trapdoor in the collapsed part of the museum.
And that's it.
Oh. Well. There's is one other thing in the bunker-but we'll be telling you about that later. In the meanwhile, explore, clean up the fires, notice that you're missing one Hollislander, talk to Rainer, and ask as many questions as you like!
