Day 3
As morning dawn, woman rushes into town, panting. Frantic, rushes through alleys, fleeing from something. In shadow of alley, pauses to catch breath. "Think... he's... ... ...gone... finally." Composed, exits alley and wanders town, replacing clothes, gold from pouch, blending with crowd. The Escaped finds freedom. But the new inspire fear. Will she survive?
Back to politics, calmer now than before. Mob realizes Devil was killed so accepts Advisor's claim to fame. Stability is best, or so they think. But don't know the murdered, poor soul last night. Unless Candidate brings it to light. Then, once again, nothing is for sure...
"See, perfectly fine. What did I tell you? Culprit's dead and gone, and I'll continue protecting the town. You won't even notice the difference!" Villagers murmur and talk, nodding heads until eventually coming to consensus: seems reasonable. Who better to help town recover than man who eliminated one responsible for chaos? Compared to one who lynched an innocent? Appraisal of Advisor as new Mayor, and town begins to set up polling, with Candidate nowhere to be seen.
Midday brings another, this Bookb- er... girl. With books on back, searches town for someone, Bookseller or so. Kindly yet Impassive woman points her on her way. The introduction to village unlike many others. For where else is there death each day? each night? Surely no place they've been, yet none see fit to leave, confident killings will end one night. If not now, then soon.
Searching through town, Candidate looks for clues. What's here? There? Who's doing what? Clueless, careless, but eventually a lead. Locked door, but hints of picking. Pushing slightly, door gives way and scene inside revealed. Young woman, throat cut, dried blood matting papers. Stick together, now unreadable, whatever they meant now gone. Eyes drawn to text, "They're still here!". More importantly, blood drawn in circle round words, making it so much more real. He had to tell someone, everyone, fast...
In alley, the Impassive strides. Suddenly, another, Watcher appears from behind. "Who-" before shes knocked out and dragged away. "No emotion, emotion, can't be, it's not! You'll see, see. See? Hahaha! Heehee! Hehehe..." empty square around gallows beckons, and two head there. Affixing rope on Impassive, Watcher giggles, "Impassive no more. Will this? RESPONSE! none some, what? Pain pain pain. You'll feel, feel. Anything! Hmm? Will you or not, Impassive falls falls falls. Walls walls fall down down down where? Death! HAHAHA!!!" To no response, Watcher pulls trapdoor, watching, cackling, escaping.
Out of breath, Candidate reaches polling place. "What are you... doing? Not... safe. Lex-Kat... dead, last night. They're still... here. We need to discuss who to kill!" Murmuring, confusion, polls are forgotten. Mob moves once more to gallows, finding sad sight. The Impassive, Naera's body, swaying gently in wind. Still no expression, no life. To remain forever free of emotion, a sad life twas not, nor glad. Town holds moment of silence, decides enough death for one day, and heads home for night.
Dusk now, another man enters, this one Furious. "Where is she? She stole my money! And I'm getting it back, no matter what! Hmph... She's not getting away this time..." Thus brings in night on this fair, foul city.
