Leota had just bustled in with a new tray of tea and baked goodies for the guests.
"Well..."
Everyone searched for the source of the small voice. Gresley and the pale girl had heard it before and were listening for more, but the others seemed startled. Leota's tray clattered to the floor.
"...that dismal city you live outside of. The coal from Rivet's mines contains shards of the precious Jewel of which you seek. The Jewel itself may be close by. When the Jewel burns, it repels the darkness. Burn the coal, stay alive."
With that, Aisling's voice was gone again. The group stood and thought for a moment. After a while, John spoke.
"Rivet's coal...the Jewel shards...Coal is burned as fuel. The steam engine's and the factories must burn Rivet coal, that's why the zombies never enter Furnace. All the smoke must be deadly to them," he concluded.
"Re-deadly," corrected Runner.
"Yes, it makes sense. Coal is used everywhere in Furnace. Just last week I took my engine to Rivet to pick up a large order of coal," said Gresley.
"So is that why you two are looking for this Jewel thing?" asked the pale girl, looking to John and Runner.
"Yes," answered Runner. "We've been searching for ages, and now we seem so close."
"I wouldn't count on that," said Lancastria [[the 11 year old girl who doesn't leave the house stare ]], "Rivet's almost a week's walk from here."
"Not if you take the train. Tomorrow, all regular rail services are suspended for Mayor's Day," Leota said, walking back into the room with a rag to clean up the spilled tea. "I could order a special train that Gresley can take and drive you all up to Rivet. It shouldn't take more than three days since you won't have to wait for other trains until the day after tomorrow."
"Hmm..," pondered John, hand stroking his nonexistent beard again. "It might work."
Leota exited the room again and returned with a pen and a small notebook. She scribbled something down on a new page, ripped it out, and threw it over her shoulder. Everyone but Lancastria and Gresley jumped when the page suddenly burst into flames, leaving nothing but a few ashes fluttering to the floor. "That's settled, then. I just sent a request for a special to the Railway's office. If all goes well, you leave for Rivet tomorrow."

(No offense, but I don't like being puppeteered no matter how epic it sounds, so after this post can we stick to using or own characters that we picked? I'll stick as Runner and John Marston. Someone needs to bring in the main character of the first Silent Hill One; we need Harry Mason to make this even more epic: John Marston:  Harry Mason:

[[Sorry redface I don't like being puppeteered either. Fine, I'll stick to me, Leota, Lancastria, and Aisling. I give Freckles permission to use Aisling too, since her character can hear her. Sorry if I totally ruined your characters. Let me know if I should go back and change anything. sweatdrop ]]

And indeed I'll actually play as Harry Mason as well.

"But to more important matters. Who was that that spoke just now? I haven't heard that voice before." My tails wrapped around my body like a robe, the character on the prayer bead necklace I wore began to glow bright red. It felt as if there were energy radiating from it, similar to the energy my body released when I first arrived, but more powerful; the energy seemed to fill the air around me, and everything I saw developed a light red haze around it. Then I heard another voice:
Sister... We have found each other again...
As I heard this voice, I became lightheaded, and blacked out. As I was fainted, I dreamed of a man, approximately seven feet tall, with long red hair and tails similar to mine. His body was covered in muscles and markings, and scars running across his cheeks in the same pattern as a fox' whiskers. He stepped closer to me, and said, "My son... do not fear... You shall carry on my legacy... You shall become the guardian..."
"Guardian of what", I asked. "I'm stranded in a foreign country and possibly a foreign world, and I have no allies. I have nothing to guard, let alone reason!"
He stepped to the side and ushered my attention forward, where I saw a little girl standing there in a white dress only lightly hued by green. Her eyes were an emerald color, and her long hair a pale white.
"The guardian of her and her children. Protect the children with the emerald eyes... Your fate depends on it..."

((Wow, Gresley. You really aren't very original, are you? I'm splicing my own unnamed character in, anyhow. I've never seen that movie, and therefore I could honestly care less about it's storyline- we're not really holding to one, anyhow. So I'm just gonna have a little fun, k?
I did correct her description, though, to match the character you describe.))

[[I've been waiting for you too, Freckles. You haven't added on in a while. 3nodding ]]
[[And Horyoku, I'm not trying to follow any storyline, and I could honestly care less that you don't care. I welcome your new unnamed character, and I thank you for your correction. I'm not trying to start anything, I think you just misinterpreted what I meant.]]
