DAY 7 - The Divine Case of the Dually Deceased
Check if anything is in the canal. I know it got blocked but it's possible KoC threw things in still
Despite your best efforts (and against all common sense), nobody has been able to find the Noise. On a hunch, you go out to survey the surrounding desert. Squinting your eyes, you're just about able to see...
...Huh. Guess that explains that. Looks like it's going to take him a while to ride back into town.

Shit, I failed again. Looks like this game is a wash for me. I might as well share everything I saw.
- I woke up and headed into the Army Post to get a soldier uniform.
- I then head downstairs to the basement through the hatch in the General Store.
- I try to go east to the blue building's basement but the door is locked.
- I wait around and the Noise shows up then goes out the south door. He comes back later and joins me in waiting.
- Elster and Lynne enter then head out the south door as well.
- Serph comes downstairs and I shoot him (non-lethally) and retrieve my tie. The Noise laughs at him.
- Elster comes back and joins the party.
- Serph heads south and comes back after a bit.
- Cascabela comes downstairs and finds everyone waiting. She unlocks the door for us and we all head to the blue basement.
- The Noise continues east, Serph and I go to the Crypt.
- I grab an entire skeleton and toss it over my back. Serph grabs a toe bone and pops it into his mouth.
- I head back to the Storeroom and prop the skeleton up. Roland comes down from above.
- I go to the Garage and Cascabela lunges at me but I dodge. She leaves. I pick up a can of gas and return to the Storeroom with it.
- I place the gas can inside the skeleton's ribs and dress it in the soldier uniform. I grab some matches too.
- I head upstairs and out to Main Street. The Noise is by the Water Tower. Reginald Fikwerther is heading to the Outhouses.
- I hand out with my skeleton buddy for a while. During that time Reginald approaches from the west and loops around back to the east.
- I light up the fuse on my makeshift gas can bomb and toss the skeleton into the twister. North Star watches as it flies into the sky and explodes. A sharp piece of glass scratches my cheek.
- I turn to the west to see that the Water Tower has collapsed and a guy wearing a sack mask is entering the Stable. A cow carrying The Noise is running towards me. A loud bang happens behind me.
- The cow runs off into the desert. I notice that North Star is no longer hanging around in the street.
- I go back to my bed. As I enter the building I see a black horse flying overhead.

Well, I'll bite - but it's a little weird talking to a ghost...
Honoka, what were you planning on doing tonight, anyway?
Oh, now you want to make nice. Your rhetoric got everyone pissed off at me, after all.
...Okay, that's rude. Sorry. My general plan for the night was to hunker down and prepare. I never expected Atua to show up incarnated, not after the incomplete nature of the Second Ritual. Shows how much I pieced together from esoteric lore of old. My submission was to go to the Blue Building and the Executive Office. Do some exploration there. Then head down to the Saloon and get a drink, as well as see if I could figure out how to collapse those tunnels safely.
After that, the gameplan was to go to the Train Station and inspect the Locomotive. I was responsible for the disabling of it, personally and solely responsible. I know where the parts are, but... well. I'm not going to let THAT information out. So I wanted to see if I could somehow fix the train without them, so that we could get out of here and regroup as soon as possible to account for my misguided mistake. Then I intended to head behind Green and inspect the Drill Tank to see if the vehicles would be any use for breaking down the rock barrier I formed. Same with going to the Garage after that. I wanted to meet with Nico during the night, and maybe try to patch things up with Akira if she'd allowed it, and talk to Jessica.
That's about it. No idea how much played out.

Kroos asked if I could check the shape and depth of the wounds on Honoka to see what might've made them, so I'll do that...
I wanted to talk with her some more today. I mean... I guess she's here, technically... but it's kind of sad. I know you all hated her, and I-I wasn't around for all that, but... maybe she was doing this for a reason?
A-and if you have time, I also want to check if Mining Equipment, Carpentry, the General Store, or Station Storage are missing axes. There's probably at least one gone, if Marisa was using an axe. (I have to follow up on Hifumi's room later... can't forget...)
You check those rooms. Mining Equipment is missing an axe, as well as Carpentry.

Can I look around the state of the Garage to see if there's anything suspicious from Honoka's body? Blood, out of place things, etc?

What's with the unfired bullet on the table in front of me...? Um... is it from a specific kind of gun?
Is everything in my inventory still intact and untouched? I had guns... b-but it'd be strange if someone took a bullet from them. It's strange that that's there in the first place, though...

Your inventory remains untouched. Including your guns.
I'll check to see if there's any blood trails and where the lead
My account mentions some disturbed ground behind Purple Building, can I get a look at that?

Oh yeah, if we're worried about missing bullets, I'll show off my guns
Show off all my guns and the bullets inside of them, including all the ones I grabbed tonight
