Quest List
Actor No. 1:
You about done? If you're finishing up, just clock out early.
Actor No. 1:
This tunnel has been off lately...
Actor No. 2:
Huh? You mean… that fog…?
Exhausted Employee:
Yeah. Every night it rolls in thicker, like it's trying to swallow you whole. No one knows where it comes from.
Frustrated Employee:
But they're pushing the schedule next month, right? Even supervisors are getting mandatory overtime… If it's just fog, maybe we can tough it out?
Exhausted Employee:
Heh. You got a death wish, kid?
Exhausted Employee:
It's not the fog. It's the side path in the fog. You can't find or see it during the day, but once night falls… folks who wander down it don't come back.
Exhausted Employee:
Worst part is, when the fog gets that thick, you don't even realize you've started walking down it.
Exhausted Employee:
So quit dawdling. Get your stuff and get home before dark.
Frustrated Employee:
You're giving me chills… Hey, this isn't just some trick you made up to avoid overtime, right?
Exhausted Employee:
Heh. If you wanna be a model worker, be my guest. Me? I'm leaving on time.
Frustrated Employee:
Hey, wait! I'm coming with you! Don't leave me here alone!
Rover:
(This "side path" they talked about… Is this really it? But it looks completely normal…)
Rover:
(Was that my imagination? Did the light just flicker?)
Rover:
(Wait, that figure under the streetlamp... Is that…?)
Rover:
…Mayo? What are you doing here?
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
...
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
You. Have. Arrived... I. Have. Been. Waiting. For. A. Very. Long. Time.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
Stare long enough into the paranormal, and the paranormal... will stare back at you.
Rover:
(Was that really Mayo? I should try calling her. Please pick up… Mayo...)
You try contacting her, but no one answers. Looks like she's busy.
Rover:
(Don't tell me she came to investigate alone… I need to catch up to her.)
Rover:
Mayo? Is that you? Don't go any further! It's dange—!
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
It's alright… I just have to be careful… Can't let it notice me…
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
If it doesn't catch me… I-I can still make it out…
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
I have to… keep running… If I reach the end… maybe I can…
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
Again…? Have I been here before…?
Rover:
Who is it? What just happened?
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
Shh. Don't talk. Listen. It's coming...
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
Run. RUN! There's still time!
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
One lamp, two lamps, three lamps… How many times has it been? I've lost count…
Rover:
So you're trapped here? I'll get you out.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
Out…? No, I think I lost that chance a long time ago.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
Ahaha, so that's how it is… I was never getting out in the first place, was I?
Rover:
Is this it…? We've reached the end.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
The end? No, this is where it begins.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
It's enough now... We're. Only. Just. Getting. Started.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
There's no escape. No escape—
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
No, it wasn't supposed to be like this… If only… I could…
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
You… you run. Run for me...
The unexplainable phenomenon that claimed her now claims you as well.
But unlike her, you still have a second chance.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
You're fast… Much faster than I ever was.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
Mm. I'm fine. I just… can't go back.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
It doesn't matter… not anymore.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
If only I'd met you a little earlier… Maybe then I'd have found someone to walk this path with me.
Young Girl That Looks like Mayo:
My story… ends here.
Without confirming who she is, the girl offers you one last, sorrowful smile, and then dissolves into the wind.
Mayo:
Rover?! Finally! Your line's been busy this whole time!
Mayo:
Did you call me? Don't tell me you found a new urban legend?!
Rover:
I was in a tunnel with a thick fog that only appears at night, and... I saw you.
Rover:
Everything was wrong. Inexplicable. And you... you got swallowed up. Left behind in there forever.
Mayo:
Hehe, so you figured it out, huh? Yeah, yeah, I vanished a long time ago—
Mayo:
...Did you actually think I'd say that?!
Mayo:
Wow, Rover! That's some top-tier storytelling! You almost had me convinced for a second!
Mayo:
But that's impossible! I've been in my dorm since this afternoon!
Mayo:
Of course! Why would I lie about that?
Mayo:
But this foggy tunnel… I swear I've heard an urban legend about it somewhere before, but where…?
Mayo:
Hm? Sure thing! But you don't need to worry that much. Exploring the unknown is never easy, and I know the risks. And hey! I do value my life!
The call ends. You turn to leave, unaware that deep within the tunnel behind you, a faint, flickering glow pulses in the growing dark as the fog begins to gather once more.
