---- Day 3. 3:32AM.
You awoke to knocking on your door once more. Great.
You begrudgingly stalked over to the door. You wished for your solitude again, your loneliness and isolation... Instead, you had to shelter people you didn't even know. They could eat you alive and nobody would fuckin' notice.
You peered through the peephole. You were met with a.. Strange man. He appeared to be bald, and wore a hoodie under a denim jacket- even in this heat. Well... It gets slightly colder at night, but-- at least its not a winter jacket and scarf, like that one person who... Never mind.
"So.. We meet again." He spoke as he sensed you behind the door. Somehow.
You don't even remember meeting this guy..?? 'meet again' my ass.
"I remember things were different the last time we crossed paths. Yet we remain alive.." He spoke, his voice tinted with nostalgia as he stuffed a hand into the denim jackets pocket.
"Hm-- it's a strange thing, I don't know how to explain it."
"Id like to start our conversation.. With a divination."
man... The suns cataclysm really DID drive people mad.
-------- Day 5. 2:18AM.
Knock knock knock. Time to let people in.
You were awake and at the front door before you knew it.. Instinctively.
"Wonderful... The cats with you."
It was the prophet again, but this time, He looked.. Worse? If that's even possible. Everyone is at rock bottom these days.. Even you.
You remembered him telling you to let the lady with the cat in. He spoke about it after he talked a whole bunch of riddles out of a book... You hope he doesn't make you pick a page of it again.
"What to do with the one who brought it... Is for you to decide."
... That lady may or may not have been shot by you already.
"But for two days yonder.. Testing portends doom. --- Halt your scrutiny until the third sunrise.. If you can do that, my guidance can continue."
dont test people?? okay... So he just WANTS you to let the visitors reside in your home.. I guess its where the dogs reside, now...Heh.
------- Day 6. 12:05AM. -- smells like someone died tonight. -- .. Not your problem.
"Youre there, yes..?"
You and him were in the same places you had been in the last times you met.. You behind the door, and him outside of it.
"The feeling is worse now... Strange.."
Feeling... He mentioned a dark aura or whatever thats in your house last time.
"Is it because of all this destruction?"
Your eyes couldn't help but fall to the burning buildings of the city behind him.. Even if it was a large walk away, you couldn't help but feel IT coming your way.
The prophet looked... Even Worse, this time. His eyes looked empty. He looked.. Tired.
Even if he says no, or disagrees... Maybe you should let him in for tonight. It isn't safe out there, and he's been nothing but help to you.. Well.. Helpful when you can actually decode what riddles he spews.
