[Fin] Murder in the Mountains (End)

[Caret]

Was that bear automation actually another lost soul? ... OK? Anyways...

"Nellie" waves his hands, and suddenly, rays of golden right surround him and condense into a set of armor and a cape, with an owl-shaped mask now covering the upper half of his face.

"It's time to for me to leave this place. Hopefully, I'll find a better place to spend my exile in. It better be better, because I don't want to go to another place just like this."

"As for you entities... ermmm... with the obvious exceptions of Malakhiri and Red, you were a decent-enough group to be stuck in a cabin with. Ummmm... by the way, my real name is Xerndak Nel'ren, but... everyone's gone. Goodbye, I guess?"

With that, the angel heads out of the cabin and into parts unknown.

". .I'll see you all somewhere, I suppose."

[Konny packs up his belongings, which weren't much to begin with, and goes outside. Perhaps to the site he's from? Perhaps home? Not even I, the narrator, knows. The trail of butterflies he's brought along follows soon after.]

[Magolor]

"...there's always so many answers left unknown. What's real, what isn't? ...I'd better catch up with them." Lotus thinks these things before grabbing her light luggage and appropriate-for-winter clothing.

[Zanreo]

"Well, no point in staying here much longer. I got stuff to do..." Bonus Boss Z finishes packing, and leaves the cabin to go somewhere else.

With all the hikers gone and the cabin empty, Life's avatar fades away.

"This was a mess... but at least I stopped things before they could escalate out of control.

"... I should prepare. I don't know where Vince went, but I don't think he's just planning to sip coconut drinks on the beach somewhere."

A beach somewhere
Vince Ruiz sips a coconut drink. "You ever make a single mistake that seems to define your entire life for years to come? Or is that just me?"

"Just you."

Vince frowns. "When'd you get here?"

"I'm death. I'm always around."

"Uh, Vince, who is -"

"Don't worry about it. ... I gotta go."

The game is over. The innocents escaped safely.
