Kirumi Tojo's Palace | The Ultimate Maid's Failures
By now everyone may be used to find themselves in bizarre locations, between going into palaces and visiting Nekyia. It might not come as a surprise that it has happened again.
What might come as a surprise, though...is how empty this place is.
All around you there's nothing more than a large, gray, featureless expanse. In the distance there seem to be bars, curving upwards to gather so, so high above you, possibly hundreds of miles above, so high it’s hard to distinguish.
It’s a cage. So unfathomably large. You could escape, were you to get to the edges of the cage, but...it would take forever. No matter how you look at it, you're trapped. The atmosphere is so...hopeless. Devoid of anything even remotely positive.
Not that you want to hang around for long, do you? After all, this is someone's palace. Not a place to stick around at. What to do, though?
It’s all so...empty. Silent. Featureless. A flat expanse of hard gray tiles.
Gather together, everyone. Gather and choose a direction. North, East, West, South. All directions look completely identical, but could it affect your time in this place, somehow? Probably not. But all treks start with the first step. Perhaps, if you get moving, you'll progress?

...Well, wherever you are, we'll find you. We're coming to save you, no matter what that stupid bear says.
...That said, he did say a body was discovered. Do we need to do something about that, and if so, what?

Hard to describe that sensation.
It's happening because the tone this silhouette has is...eager]
When a body is discovered, people investigate and a trial is performed to figure out the culprit. Everybody throws theories, discuss evidence, and then--the culprit is discovered, and--!
[The silhouette stops. There's a tense silence until she adds, forlorn:]
...I...I shouldn't have wanted to be part of all that. I don't know who you are or what's going on with you, but if you're thinking to be part of the world: don't. Don't join them. It wasn't worth it.
[While the silhouette fades, she repeats it:]
...it really wasn't worth it.
[And then it's gone and doesn't appear again.
Odd answers, eh?]
