[ Of all the discoveries she could have made, that isn't something Verso ever would have guessed at. It's a strange sense, this light-headedness, as needing to consider what this place may actually be. A proper afterlife. One where the ghosts of his past truly are prepared to haunt him, whether or not they're fully aware of the crimes they're seeking vengeance for.
Is he going to bump into Julie next?
Despite her attempt to dissuade the possibility that she's been tricked, how can Maelle actually know? Alicia had seemed so real, and her being dead like that seems just as unlikely as Gustave being alive.
Swallowing against the dryness in his throat, he looks beyond her again, as though expecting to see Gustave pop up from behind a passerby. ]
You're...sure? It was really him? How can that be possible?
[ It's one thing for them to be here. That should also be an impossibility, true, but Gustave can't be here. He didn't merely Gommage, he was slaughtered.
So how...?
If these fae have tricked Maelle with a hallucination as terrible as this, lifted her spirits just to dash them, more violence may be necessary before the night's over. ]
