Urban Legend: Train to Who-Knows-Where
Out in the wild, an urban legend takes shape. A Midnight Train, said to be packed with "ghosts," races endlessly through the night, toward who knows where... Is it truly as Mayo claimed? Gather your courage and go take a look!
Quest List
You contact Mayo.
Mayo:
…Rover? Ahh, there we go! Signal's clear now!
Mayo:
Uh... pushing midnight? Why? What's up?
Mayo:
But you're not "most people," are you? Besides! Midnight is when the spiritual energy is at its strongest! It's prime time for the paranormal! Half the best urban legends begin at this exact hour!
Mayo:
Midnight chills, heartbeat thrills… Hmm? Did I just hear wind and the screech of metal on your end?
Mayo:
Perfect! Right time, right place! Ta-dah, time for a super authentic urban legend investigation!
Mayo:
Ever heard of the "Midnight Train That Never Stops and Heads to Who-Knows-Where"?
Mayo:
Right at the stroke of twelve, it glides silently into the station, cabins full of "ghosts." If you board it, you might be carried straight into the underworld...
Mayo:
Or so they say, because no living passenger has ever come back to tell the tale.
Mayo:
Nope! This urban legend is different. It's real. Absolutely, totally legit... I've seen it with my own eyes.
Mayo:
I was investigating another case when I stumbled across it... The fog was so thick, but through it, I saw this pale, blue light. It was like the train was calling to me.
Mayo:
And then? Well, I only saw it from afar! It pulled out before I could get any closer!
Mayo:
I was this close! It's been haunting me ever since... Which is why, Rover, you...
Mayo:
Mm-hmm! Since you're asking, I'll take that as a yes!
Mayo:
Don't worry! As leader of the Paranormal Fan Club, I'll be there to give you remote support the entire time!
Mayo:
Well, you know, that's kind of what our club is about, and our guiding purpose, after all!
Mayo:
Come on, I'll guide you to the exact spot! Oh, and if anything shocking happens, take a picture! I need material for recruiting new members!
The midnight air smells of rust and the damp. Far down the tracks, something flickers. An eerie, pale blue glow pulses in the dark.
Rover:
Mayo, I think I just saw that "Midnight Train."
Mayo:
Rover, how's it going over there? ...Can you hear me?
Rover:
I'm going after it—!
Mayo:
Wait, what!? Hey! Hello!? Your signal's... cutting... Don't do anything reckless! You hear me—?!
Rover:
Mayo, hello? Did the line cut? Where is this place?
Rover:
...Guess this counts as something shocking. I should snap a picture for her.
Rover:
This rift… Is it because of the Voidmatter? Or something else?
Rover:
Either way, I'll clear it out first.
Mayo:
—Rover? Are you okay!? Can you hear me? You lost signal just now!
Mayo:
Oh dear, no response at all... If something happened to {Male=him;Female=her}… I-I should've called backup...
Mayo:
Hmm, ah! You… you scared me half to death!
Mayo:
So you did see that train, right? Closer and clearer than I ever did.
You send Mayo the photo and recount everything that happened while the comms were down.
Mayo:
So the train was shuttling between that monster-spawning rift… and our world?
Mayo:
But why? Why that train? Who's operating it?
Mayo:
I'll need to raise its classification level and investigation priority. We'll need deeper research and thorough verification for a conclusion.
Mayo:
Maybe it isn't ferrying departed souls. Maybe it's carrying something else… to a "gate" elsewhere.
A chilled, night breeze blows, and far down the tracks, that faint blue glow flickers. You suddenly realize the train might still be continuing its journey.
Mayo:
Helloooo! Rover, can you hear me?
Mayo:
Huh? You're breaking up. Anyway, forget it. Call me again once you're near the station. Maybe the connection will be better there!
