EPILOGUE
So.
Juniper is dead. Lorelei and Florence are alive. And the rest of you, thankfully, are also alive and kicking.
The building is kind of a mess right now, and a lot of the citizens are in kind of disarray, confused and uncertain of what exactly is going on in the Camellia tower. Things are a bit of a mess right now, but what matters is that you’ve stopped things. The cycle of these experiments, suppression – it’s over.
Your markings are still here, however. You are free to try and figure that out, too (though the answer is, indeed, quite simple with the "B" toggle, and may be hand waved). Other than that, though, everything seems to be...stabilized. As good as they can be, anyway. Lorelei and Florence are around, for any last conversations. When you emerge, the sun is out, perhaps brighter than usual – though whether that’s because of joy from the citizens or confusion is anyone’s guess – and some of you are covered in blood, but you are here.
And you are ready to finally, finally return home.
---
(OOC: For anyone who's willing, Lorelei will be able to configure tablets to synch up with the portal here at Estelline. From there, they will be able to world hop to someone else's world; so the Estelline portal is now a hub, of sorts. It's not a direct world hop and it's a bit inconvenient, but it is a way for you guys to see each other again.
She will also ensure that those who are currently sleeping will be sent home in one piece.
All of this can be handwaved, or threaded out in the Lorelei thread.
Happy Good Ending, everyone!)

What do you intend to do with the data gathered from the experiment?
no subject
[ Which was...a lot of stuff, honestly. ]
And, quite honestly, since Camellia's essentially without anyone in power anymore, I do intend to use the results to try and push against anyone who may try to take over. ... With Dr. Juniper's ideals, of course. Or, perhaps, I'll go back to the world where the project originated and carry out more work there.
no subject
But in many ways, that is an issue far beyond what either of them can really do individually, so the fact that she's willing to do something about this... puts her at like, -25 as opposed to -30. Improvement??
(it will not be an improvement if she still plans on roping people in for other random experiments but like, he doesn't have to know about that)]
I see. What about the others who were brought in before us? Were you able to confirm their return?
[Imagine being eaten by an orb for a couple months and potentially turned into a zombie only to be told you're back in the real world and can go home...]
