My sleep was disturbed when a rays of bright light shined on my face through the window , its warm rays felt different as usual . The sun's ray felt uneasy , maybe it was me but the town was awfully quiet . My name is Giles Corey , and today was the start of one hell of a ride .
-
As i head out for my daily routine , I noticed something strange too . The town folks were outside , staring at each other , it was pindrop silenece . The silence was unbearable . As I briskly walked towards the folks , I saw a strange figure standing in the middle of everybody . He was wearing a torned black robe covering his entire body , his hands were only made of bones and he has no feet . It's menacing presence made my knees tremble with fear , as if he is death itself . After slowly reaching for the members of the town , the creature spoked in a deep tone
"Greetings , Town folks of Salem , I , the Grim reaper , have came here to bestow death upon all of you" Immediately , Deodat Lawson spoke up in a Ferocious tone "Don't give me this kind of crap , who the hell are you to say this !" Ignoring Deodat , the creature kept going "However , you may be spared , you all will be put to th test . We will play a game , There are a total of 15 of you , so there will be 1 jailor , 8 town members , 4 mafia members , 1 neutral killing and 1 neutral evil . For town , there are 2 town investigates , 1 town killing , 1 town protective , 1 town support and 3 random towns . For mafia , there is a Godfather , mafioso and 2 random mafia . For neutral evil , it is either a jester , a executioner or a witch . And for neutral killing , it is either a serial killer , an arsonist or werewolf . This is a game about the survival of the fittest" Ann Putman questioned the creature , "S-So , it i-i-is the sur-survival of the fitte-fittest?" "Indeed , I bid you farewell and good luck , may god be with you " The creature responded and dissappeared into nothingness .

With very little knowledge , I had failed to understand a single detail about this "game" . And i had many questions , why did God do this? What is going to happen? Is anybody else affected other than this town?
-
While questioning my sanity , another letter appeared in front of me . The letter has the word CONFIDENTIAL on it , and i was so panicked that I decided to obey and just read the letter . On the letter , it says "You are a medium , a town support , you can speak to the dead at night ."
-
The dead!? What can the dead do to help our current situation right now! Our lives are at stakes! We are fighting god for fuck sake! Time have passed , and the light from the sky starts draining . The dark blue , cold night had began .

Night 1:
During the night , I sat at home uneasy . My sofa which I usually sit on felt hard to sit on . I decided to make some coffee and stay put for the night , when I realised a crystal ball on my table in front of my sofa . The crystal ball was clear , but unsual too , it doesnt feel a decoration . When i went near the ball , I heard a voice from the ball "HOLY COW! Its actually a magical crystal ball! I can really speak to the dead?" "Son? You're alive!" "Dad!? How are you dead?" I questioned "I died just today son , i do not know why but , god has lost his faith in humanity , in what ways did he lost our trust in us , Our hometown was in flames , , it was like hell had spawned on earth , and I thought u were gone too son" "It is okay dad , you didn't do anything bad , I'm so sorry you died , I couldn't do anything" Tears flowed down my cheeks as I answered my dad , I had lost my mom long ago and now I had lost my dad . I cried for the entire night . In case I had died , i wrote a will :
Role-Medium
N1:I can talk to the dead.

Day 2:
I heard as a rooster made it's sound , the first thing I heard since yesterday . When I walked out to see our situation , Mike lucen and William Phip's body was found dead outside .
-
"What the!?" Elizabeth screamed in fear , the town folks were whispering to one another . While Mike lucen's body became the talk of the town , the creature that had made it's appearance yesterday , came once more to this town .
Taking out a list , it said "Mike lucen was found dead outside his home , he was killed by a member of the mafia , his role was sheriff . William Phips died last night , he was stabbed by a serial killer , his role was doctor" Tom Wayne immediately spoke up "After reading some information up , a similar story happened in the 16th century . And the rules are pretty simple and maybe theres a chance some of us may survive , town must beat neutral killing and mafia and vice versa , neutral evil have different properties and can only win if they did their roles" I took out my will and started scribbling down these win conditions . He is probably town as if he is mafia or neutral killing , he would probably kept it secret for him to win only . He then revealed as mayor .
-
I guess I was right , we started asking for everybody's roles and we did not get nowhere , all the numbers doesn't seem to add up . I decided to wait for tomorrow to start lynching people .
-
Night 2:
At 12am sharp , I went to my living room and wanted to speak to my dead father . But when I got close to the crystal , I heard several voices , and I heard Mike , William and my father's voices . "Holy crap! I forgot i could have spoken to you . Who killed you both ? And Mike , who did you interrogate ?" "We both did not see our killers' faces clearly , but , Deodat Lawson , one of the most sweetest girl , was mafia" Mike answered hesitantly . There was a moment of silence surrounding the living room , I did not want her to lose , yet i dont't want to die .
I wrote this new information on my will .
Role-Medium
N1:I can talk to the dead
N2:Mike says Deodat is the mafia
-
Day 3:
The sound of the rooster was once heard , I woke up with a dreadful feeling , but I was happy too to be alive once more . As i walked out my home , I saw no dead bodies . "Oh wow , nobody died ?" Deodat exclaimed , she was sweating , even though it was chilling today . The mayor , was asking aggressively for any other clues , and I spoke up "I am the medium , and the sheriff found the mafia , Deodat ." The town stared at her . The mayor spoke "Wait , Giles may be an executioner , someone who will do anything to lynch his target" "He is the executioner , I can't be mafia" "Then care to claim?" I defended my claim . The town was silent once again , this time focusing on Deodat , she was sweating hard . "I'm medium" "Lynch her , I am the only medium" We put her on stand and everyone agreed to hang her . The creature appeared and announced her role "may god bless her soul , her role was mafioso , she did not left a will"
-
The day ended as we head back home , it was intense and I head to my house .
Night 3:
"Today may be the day I die" I spoke to myself , I was ready for it . I wanted to end this quickly , but everybody claim's were suspicious and they had no proof for their roles . At least only 3 died , I calmed myself down and made some tea to drink . The dead had no information for me , but at least Deodat had calmed down , I sat down reading the latest story I bought 2 weeks ago . At 10pm , I heard the doorbell . I slowly opened the door and saw somebody wearing a black jacket and a black hat "Sir , may I enter your house ?" "Sure" I replied , as he stepped in and began looking around my house . "Thank you sir , have a nice day" He left my house writing something down .

Day 4:
When i heard the rooster's voice once more , the bodies of dozens was at the middle of town "Everyone is dead ! Did it really happen ? Fuc-" The smell of bodies rotting made me want to puke , so i stopped talking . The creature appeared once more "Good job Giles , u have passed the trial" "What trial ? Why is everybody dead ?"
"They are not even alive , it was a setup to help u understand the rules of this game by god , after doing so , your trial is over , you will be sent shortly to your next game . Good luck Giles Corey , you will be competing against 1000 people left alive . Only when you win your last game may you be sent to heaven" the creature disappeared and everything crumbled before my eyes . Hell had just started , and im soon going to face it all , I knelt down and cried with tears of despair .r
