-----Phase 2-----
PURGATORY
Between the lands of Heaven and Hell, a great void of nothingness yawns. However, at the very centre stands a small village, cobbled roads and thatched houses layered in a veil of mist. The village acts as a sort of bridge between the afterlives, and at each end of the main road, things get... weird. Angelic chanting is blasting from the north end, whilst standing at the south end causes a wave of heat and fear to wash over you.
The quaint old roads seem to be devoid of souls, yet you can hear a noise echoing from one of the buildings. A quacking sound? The building it is emanating from seems to be some sort of village jail, where what was once a drunk tank now stands as an oddly high-tech, high-security vault. There is a slit on the door, if you wanted to see what is inside.
Two strange pedestals stand at either end of the village. There is a clock face carved into both of them. At the east end of the village, the carving shows 3 o'clock. At the west end, 9 o'clock. Bizarre! It's noon right now, though. The sun is right overhead, and it's illuminating the fog with bright light! Just beyond the two pedestals, the village drops off into nothingness... Don't look down! The faint light disappears very quickly when it reaches this point.
There's a third pedestal, in the centre of the village. There's something engraved on it...
"Once opened, the machine of Dawn
Daylight and Dusk
Welcomed in those directly beneath it."
The village has a "lost and found" stall! There is a pile of items here, including a mouldy apple, complete with writing maggot, a rather heavy-looking gun, and a red brick. You could probably find other things in the pile, if you looked through it.
From here you can move to CLOUDTOPS, ROOFTOPS, SANCTUARY or STREETS.
