Mafia Game XXXII: Egypt's Sleepers

I believe I'm going to be voting for Miss Reep as well. Sorry, and I sincerely hope you aren't one of the lovers.

Given my interactions with Lossy earlier in the game, I really don't believe that she is mafia, so I'm going to have to vote on principle against Rainshadow.

MissReep and Lossy were arguing again. Their loud voices reverberated in the passage. Finally Rainshadow spoke sternly, “We’ll separate. MissReep, go your way and I will follow Lossy.”

“No” snarled MissReep. “You’ll have a trap in there for me! Is that why you are so adamant?”

“Then you have decided against that path?” inquired Rainshadow deliberately.

“Yes,” MissReep snapped. “I feel better if I keep a murderer in sight! Come on Lossy, let’s go.”

“Wait!” thundered Rainshadow. “You seemed mighty set on us going in the adjacent path. Perhaps you are mafia.”

MissReep laughed harshly. “I am the main reason we are alive. I shared my food, even with you! While you,” she sneered, “You sat and supposedly mourned for your sister. Where were you really?”

Lossy stared at the two enraged girls.

“How dare you,” Rainshadow choked angrily, her eyes livid. She pulled the dagger from her bag. “My sister was dear to me, and I WILL avenger her!”

MissReep paled and turned to flee down the tunnel. Lossy blocked her. Frantically MissReep spun to face Rainshadow. “Stop,” she shrieked, “You’re making a mistake!”

“Am I?” glared Rainshadow. MissReep desperately tried to thrust past Lossy, but the Tree planted herself firmly to the ground. Rainshadow moved swiftly, and MissReep died instantly.

Rainshadow and Lossy stared at each other. “Are you going to kill me too?” asked Lossy quietly.

Rainshadow dropped the dagger. “No, are you?”

Lossy glanced at the dagger and then scrutinized Rainshadow. “No,” she replied. “The mafia are dead.”

“Are they? Who were the helicopter pilots? Who contacted them? Who was the van driver?” Rainshadow shook her head. “I wonder.”

The questions lingered as they trod wearily foreword. After a few hours walking, they came to the passage’s end. It had led them to a door. They shoved it open and staggered out into muddy ground surrounding a hill. This they climbed and realized they were on the outskirts of the city. There, somewhere in all those twinkling lights a building had witnessed a gruesome tale. Now it had ended and they were free.

Lossy breathed deeply. “The sky!” It was beautiful, the gray clouds and falling rain. They lifted their heads allowing the drops to stream down their faces.

“We’re alive!” Lossy laughed, shaking her leafy crown. Rainshadow’s rich laugh melded with the Tree’s silvery one. All night saw them upon that hill. And when night ended, morning began. In the east the sun peeked brightly at them, the storm clouds having dispersed during the night. Soaked but happy the two girls trudged down the hill to the road below, eager to find means of transportation. Soon they would leave this place. Forever, each girl vowed.

The police had been inquiring since the strange discovery of an abandoned boat found by fishermen. Slowly they located the deceased bodies of its crew. All were accounted for except two, Rainshadow and Lossy. Their families yielded no information. Either they honestly knew nothing or, as some of the police suspected, they were willfully withholding news of the girls. However, they discovered no evidence to support this theory. After months of fruitless searching, the two girls were added to a missing list. What had happened they wondered? Would they ever know?

As for the girls, were they dead? Or perhaps they feared a return to the land of the living could spell their deaths.

Game 32 is now over—THE CIVILIANS WIN.

We survived! Congrats, Lossy!

Oh, and sorry, Miss Reep. Didn't wanna stab you, but... y'know, I didn't wanna die either.

@Elsesta: Are we allowed to reveal what role we played?

Elsesta will probably post the roles pretty soon, so yes, you're free to share. Good game, everybody.

I have the roles posted on the first page of this thread.

I knew it!! I thought it was suspicious that you contacted me, Glen! Obviously you were my murderer!!!

An excellent game, Elsesta, well done! And well done everybody involved for playing their part!

Great game, everyone. I really, really enjoyed it. Also learned a few more things, such as who to trust and distrust in future games. Sorry again for hanging you, Glen. I'll try not to next time.

Why didn't you and loverble vote for someone else on the day we hanged Corin?


But Eustace, I contacted you as well, and I'm no murderer. Not this game anyway.

Now I'm afraid of what might happen to me if you are mafia next time...

Good game all! And especially good job Elsesta!!

Good game, everyone! Apologies to all those who died at the hands of me and my compatriots.

Yeah, Lossy's right. I PM when I'm a civilian, too--half the game happens in the PMs. Otherwise it's all random acts of violence.

Good game, y'all! I had a lot of fun with this, and I'll definitely be joining the next one!

@Glen: Funny how the mafia and the healer formed an alliance...

You were a great healer. Sometimes no one gets saved. You didn't know that the matchmaker had picked you and Lossiful, did you? There were so many twists, or potential twists, in this game….

I had no idea that I was Lossy's lover. (Kinda creepy, as both of us are girls... lol.) But I'm glad I didn't decide to vote her off, 'cause then I woulda died! And I woulda been wrong, too.

Oh, and also, I'll have you know that I was terrified for my life ('cause of how crazy Elsesta was making me out to be ), so I healed myself every round.

That was really fun. I enjoyed reading about my sister becoming crazy. It was hilarious! Can't wait for the next game!

So that explains it. I don't think the healer was ever named a lover before--at least in my mafia experience.

Well, Corin, I am not sorry to be the cause of your demise anymore. I had guessed everyone except the healer but then too I had a ghostie tell me he was it, when he was actually the mafia I had him pegged for. That was an amazing game guys...whose up for the next one? *Runs to revive Sign-up thread*
