You awaken to blackness. Frightening, although familiar--this is the same terrible thing you narrowly avoided during your first trip into Lebensbaum. The pain of your death is still real, echoes of the wounds you suffered appearing on your skin. Inspecting your surroundings will tell you that you've woken up inside of the cooled, empty bonfire pit....and the town as it was is nowhere to be seen.
The sky is a whirlwind of blank, dark void. What previously acted as roadblocks on either side of the town seems to have moved upward, blocking out most of the sun's light. The street is barren, filled with piles of broken concrete, shattered glass, and smoking craters where many of the buildings used to be. Old bloodstains dot the pavement, mixing in with overturned cars and crumbling brick walls. Lebensbaum is a dead town, in more ways than one.
Except for the hotel. It stands, as dusty and abandoned as it ever was, but no worse for the wear. Scorch marks can be seen on the ground around it in a clear border, as though it had a barrier protecting it from whatever destroyed the village. If you venture inside, everything is in its place, as though the outside wasn't completely obliterated.
Concentrating will let you be able to see the living as they move around the hotel, going about their days--or perhaps doing something more sinister. It's only when they cross the scorched border that their already-flickering images fade from view entirely.
You're welcome to roam about. Doing so may even be beneficial, as you'll quickly discover that you aren't quite alone here.
Some additional points of reference, as asked:
• References for the locked rooms
• No one will be wearing their talismans
• No one will feel hunger or thirst, though they can sleep if they wish

If anyone is willing, I have a thought I would very much like to explore. I need only a few willing volunteers.

[Head tilt. He still has no idea what to make of Morrigan but according to Youko, she technically didn't even murder anybody, so he's officially On Speaking Terms for the time being.]
At first everything felt a hundred percent see through. By the third week I could lean against a door if I really wanted to... but it still felt like writing or anything would be way too hard, so I haven't even tried at all. Now that there are like ten of us I guess we could all work together. Writing that way would be hard, though, so what are you thinking?

[Not that he's declining to help. Boredom is an horrible affliction.]

[ she'll turn to takao, who has been here much longer than she has and probably knows better. ]
Tell me. Have you tried touching anyone?

Are you sure it'll be worth it to just show them there are ghosts, anyway? Besides, now that weird stuff happened to take away Sisuca-san, they might think it's just those same invisible monsters.

[ morrigan looks contemplative for a moment. ]
I suppose if items in the room began to move, one might think a ghost to be present. Or.. [ a really long, drawn out or. ] If someone was restricted, in some way. I seem to recall a conversation I had with Rhys, Break, and Gilbert. One of a vengeful ghost who only wishes to chain someone down. If we were to call back to that, I believe they would begin to question our presence.

[He doesn't really get it from just that - which is probably for the best, because it's a sorta messed up idea. If they really can make one of the guys feel their presence though...]
It might not be as easy as knocking stuff over, but that would be way harder to get mixed up! We've got to do it right away before anyone else dies so they know it happened because of you!

[Placing his hand on his hip and looking at Morrigan!!]
They're your friends so which one do you think is the brightest of the class?
[His cynicism could be more apparent. Just a little.]

[Morrigan is scary and Ryouta does not feel comfortable doing what she might disapprove of.
How accurate...]

[ good ryouta, do whatever you can to please her. she likes this. ]

Oh. Do...you have an idea on how to get their attention, then?
