Secret Log: PurgatoryCongrats on your untimely death! After you die, you will awaken in a very drab waiting room. The only other people in the waiting area seems to be the others who also died back at the cabin. On the wall, there is a sign that reads: Welcome to Purgatory! Please take a number and wait while your soul is processed for its next destination. Thank you. Sure enough, under the sign there is one of those old number ticket machines.
From there, there is nothing to do but... wait! There are plenty of old chairs to sit in (some are even comfortable), along with stacks of magazines that are all discontinued. If you get hungry, there is a cabinet and fridge that is full of various discontinued snacks and drinks. Fancy yourself a New Coke or Pepsi Blue?
Finally, there is an old fashioned tv and antennae. You can use this either to watch some cancelled shows or watch a feed of what's going on back at the cabin. You'll have to deal with adjusting the antenna regularly and bad reception though.
That's about it for purgatory though! Enjoy your stay.
[OOC: This is the log for all the characters that die during the October Horror plot! It's up to you if your character is still affected by the roles given to them by the plot. Please do not discuss or link this log anywhere outside the Purgatory chat until October 15th. After October 15th, this log will be shown to everyone else. ]

[Rose frowns. She didn't understand Emet Selch when he was alive, and she's sure she understands him even less now.]
[But she can try, for Blade's sake, at least.]
I think he held regrets when he was alive. There were people he missed that he couldn't see again. When he died, he feared that he--his people, would be forgotten. If he were assured that wouldn't be the case, I think--I think he would have moved on peacefully.
[She was there, she met him after the fact, and she still isn't sure.]
As for me, I'm terrified. I don't want it to be over. But we're here, and we can't change that.

[He can understand that.
He's quiet for a moment, watching her quietly from behind his fringe. Then, a touch softer:]
Come here, then.
[And he holds out his hand.]

[She's not sure why. Maybe it just helps to feel less alone.]
[It does make her feel better though, at least a bit.]
I appreciate what you did for me. Even if I still ended up here in the end, it was worth something, I think. So thank you.

I thought you'd be angry still.
[He did lock her in the cellar or whatever.]
You got to live through the night, and help the others. That's enough for me.
