Inside all you'll find is hay. Not the most terrifying thing ever.

[Also nihilism, but Erin already has some streaks of that, so she didn't notice]

Anyone with allergies already has a bad time four months every year, a silly temple won't bother them.

[Ganbatte, people with allergies...

Erin enters again, looking around like she expects things to have changed now that there's more than one person here]


Unless it turns out I see it as hay and you see it like something else. We know things can mess with our perception.

It's not difficult to be better than the village.

[Erin looks around]

I dunno, it just feels like this wouldn't be here for no reason. Unless...it's linked to why the houses are empty in the first place. I checked them while I invaded those, bipedal animals lived there.

[As usual, she's already trying to connect dots! But it's a fair enough train of thought, isn't it? Houses eerily vacant, and a building with mysterious purposes that has to go beyond just storing hay!

Not that the houses being eerily vacant will change Erin's decision to invade and take over one of the houses. A potential haunting or abduction won't stop her from wanting a good sleeping place where nobody died. Why did you have to throw Aventurine into the trapdoor there, Boothill]

Ugh, hearing that reminds me of Laudna, Ms. There's Been a Corpse Everywhere You Sleep At.

[Erin is kind of sure Laudna would say that chances are everywhere on this island also had a sacrifice done on it. You could be standing among the cows and she would say someone was sacrificed to the heifers, Erin is sure.

She likes Laudna, but also the way Laudna spooked her first meeting really stuck with Erin, haha]

Never heard of 'you're right but you shouldn't have said it'?

[Erin says as if she was the perfect picture of social grace and being considerate when talking. Don't dish it if you can't take it, Erin]

Well that's it. That pyramid should be demolished. If I had tools for it I'd get started at that.

[She really would]

Not a bad idea. It'll be a second pyre.
