WEEK 6 WORLD REVEAL
It's that moment you've all been waiting for! We're going to...
Welcome to Shibuya, or rather its ruins. The buildings and monuments that were once loved by its people are now crumbling and grown over with plant life - apparently abandoned for many years. There is no human life to be found at all, and no Noise, for they do not exist without others to prey on - instead, the atmosphere is thick with dormant Soul, that could be described as a deafening Silence.

All stores still have a Reaper Decal, and any items found are free for the looting. (Pins are fair game. Quest items, however, cannot be found, and most food is rotten. The only edibles that survived were the french fries, cheap coffee, medicine, and the Curious Mushrooms which seem to have propagated somehow.) There doesn't seem to be a designated shelter this time.
Several hours after everyone arrives, their phones will receive a text saying that there is no Game this week:
Players will have their entry fees returned - although Zecora's isn't entirely in tact, since unfortunately the Conductor can't give Sasuke back. She will instead receive a certain newspaper clipping that might bring her hope.
Another effect of the game on hold, Reapers are technically not confined by any rules, including the one that says they can only use Noise. They can attack or aid Players to their heart's desire.
Now, with that out of the way, I'd like to make an announcement about the direction of the game. More specifically, I'd like to start taking it in an endgame direction. I feel that with how much the playerbase has dwindled and our total lack of new blood for several months, it's unrealistic to assume that it will be able to continue indefinitely.
And so, I've decided to handle this by opening a discussion. What kind of ending would we like to have? I'd like to hear thoughts on this for both the game as a whole and for individual characters, as I would much prefer to plan the ending around the PC characters rather than railroad it with the NPCs.
You can also consider the NPC App I wrote earlier to be null and void, as it was created with a longer game in mind. Anyone who wants to ascend should just say so as part of "what we'd like in the game" and I'll see what can be done.
