the 4 former Papas of Ghost, Papa Nihil, Papa Emeritus I, Papa Emeritus II, and Papa Emeritus III, were recently “declared deceased,” even though it’s no secret to anyone that they were killed by the Clergy to make room for a new Papa. Their bodies had been preserved and put into glass coffins, put on display inside the Ministry. You figured that you ought to pay your respects to them.

You made your way to the hall where their bodies were displayed, but when you arrived there, instead of finding their bodies unbothered, you found a large ghoul, clawing and scratching at Papa Emeritus III’s coffin. He sobbed uncontrollably, scratching desperately at the coffin, although his efforts to get through the strong glass were futile. He eventually gave up trying to scratch at the glass, and took his silver mask off, throwing it to the ground with a loud clang that made him jump. He hid his face within his arms, but it was clear he was pressing his face against the glass, loud sobs and cries still spilling from him. His sad attempts at purring just came out as whimpers, while he nuzzled against the glass like a sad animal trying to get love from an unresponsive owner.
