Afterlife - Conversation Log

No, this is no time for idle chatter, is it?

Hello, or perhaps good evening? Well, either is fine.

It might be irritating to hear this within seconds of meeting, but 'You are dead.'

Yes, in the height of summer, leaving your childhood friend behind before even turning twenty.

Now? Right now, your funeral is in progress. Shall we go?

Well, our talk isn't over yet, so please wait.

Ah, it looks like it's your childhood friend's turn. Look there, he's bringing the incense.

Ugh, his face is terrifying...

...Sorry, it might be normal to you so you wouldn't notice, but he looks like a total Hannya demon. A Hannya.

?...You don't know what a Hannya is? Ah, you think there's no way he could look like that... is it?

No, he really is a Hannya... Ugh, and his feelings are so thick and murky. Just what kind of childhood friend did you raise??

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

Ah, his turn at the incense is over.

Do you want to hear what he was saying while he was doing it?

He said 'I won't forgive you' several times. Though in his heart, there were just as many feelings of love.

...Ah, it seems you still have lingering regrets. That's good. ...Is it?

Well, I suppose? There's no human in this world without regrets. Most go back to the living world once to finish what they started before passing on for good...

Now then, let's prepare for your descent to the living world...

...One last confirmation. Is he the type who... can see ghosts or anything?

Ah, he can see them perfectly? ...Well, once you descend... good luck.

Oh, one last piece of advice. If you stay in the living world too long, you'll become an evil spirit, so it's best to finish your unfinished business quickly.

Once the Obon festival is over, you can return to nature naturally.

Well then, ...take care and be on your way.
