Kirumi Tojo's Palace | The Ultimate Maid's Failures

[kandata]

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?

It does not matter, indeed...

[From the tone and way she speaks, it really feels like she'll stick to that because it's all she remembers and knows, but, well...mannerisms are a small part of a person's ego, all things considered]

What am I supposed to do now? All I knew was an elaborate deception onto myself and the world at large. How am I supposed to move on?

[idealitas]

There is no one, nothing to enforce that supposition.

[ He recalls that people don't have to return to their world, they need only speak with Braphine about more details. ]

You can do... Whatever makes you feel happy or comfortable doing. Even if it's continuing as "Kirumi" You may not be able to move on from this, but you can move forward.

... We will support you.

I cannot thank you enough. I knew someone would come, but I did not think, even after everything, there would be...

[.......]

...this much support.

[She dreaded how people would react to her actions, and also she attacking them, even if spurred on by Monokuma, wasn't a great way to greet anybody. That they still are willing to help is a surprise to her]
