introductions

It comes to you suddenly, at the end of an unravelling thread of thought. A sudden, piercing sense of wrongness stops you in your tracks and sends you tumbling through rapidfire questions that you realize you have no answer for. How long have you been here? How long have you been doing the same things, over and over, blindly going through the motions of a routine? Just who are you, anyway?

Questions beget more questions and answers prove illusive until you arrive at the only things you know for certain: the first is that this place is Purgatory.

The second is that you're here because you're dead.

Oddly, this doesn't feel like a surprise of any sort. You don't remember how or why it happened, but it did and that's that. It feels rather as though you've been slapped awake and everything around you has come into sharp focus. You're in Limbo, where you've been wandering since you arrived here in Purgatory alongside all the other mindless souls who are acting out what little they remember of their original lives.

Still lingering is that horrible sense of something being terribly wrong. It hasn't dissipated with your realization of the truth – if anything, it's intensified. There's no way to tell what it is, but there's something going on here.

Maybe you should investigate – or at least see if there's anyone else here who's had the same realization as you...

[He starts to bristle like a cat but the shockingly taller man doesn't instigate a fight so he can't bring himself to do so either. So instead he nods.]

SOmething is... wrong. And I'm dead. You too?

Quite so. [He lets go now that they both seem to be chilled.] On both counts. And yet the only other scrap of information I can lay claim to is that this place is...Purgatory.

Purgatory... I can't say I know the term.

[Sorry, Dragon Catholosim says you just go straight to Dragon Hell]

Might it be simply the name of this place? After a person, perhaps, or another place... [Look, the Beyond is sure a Place but it's arguably not any kind of limbo or purgatory but let's not get into that!!!] In any event, here we are. Whatever that may mean for us.
