The Ghost Town

Mageheart · 2018-07-23T21:16:15Z

The Ghost Town There was once a town hidden away from the world. Nestled between sprawling hills, thick forests and a sparkling lake, this town thrived. As the world gradually became more industrialized, the town slowly adjusted to the steady stream of travelers and tourists passing through. This town would have likely blossomed into a bustling city, but something odd happened to its occupants. On one summer day, a family arrived in the town. They were only heading to a vacation resort a few towns over, but ended up discovering a peculiar thing. All occupants of the town had vanished. An investigation was launched, but no information was found. After many years, it was declared that the people had died. No one knew how, but no one cared to learn. It is said that this story is nothing more than a children's tale, told around flickering campfires. But those who live closer to the town have a slightly different version of the tale. If one visits the town on the darkest nights of the year, they will not only find ghosts and demons wandering the streets. They will find beings from other peculiar worlds, and strange individuals that claim to be from places that simply are not on the map. You are one of the night time visitors. You have been brought here against your will, and it is up to you to figure out why you were taken here. But if you want to live to find that out, you must first discover the story behind the disappearance of an entire town. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/59/62/6c/59626c1d54638b6b00913e6ba7e5dd52.jpg

When Thymea noticed Lasan watching her, she turned her gaze to God. He was starting to realize that he really had become the leader of the group - not because he was God, but because he was the only one who had an idea of what someone was supposed to do in a situation like this.

He nodded.

"It shouldn't take long," God said. "I have a knack for annoying people - the Council loves to complain about me. If I can get a group of immortals to want to kill me, I'm sure I can do the same with a handful of partials."

The lizard had his doubts - God had been a friendly and outgoing person so far, rather than annoying. But, God was also very knowledgeable about this whole dead people business, so Lasan trusted his judgment.

"Alright," he said. "You guys better get going."

S'io credesse che mia risposta fosse
a persona che mai tornasse al mondo,
questa fiamma staria senza piu scosse.
Ma per ciò che giammai di questo fondo
non tornò vivo alcun, s'i' odo il vero,
senza tema d'infamia ti rispondo.

Inferno, Canto 27, l 61-66.

she slept with wolves without fear, for the wolves knew there was a lion among them.
