Yes.
The last time wasn't quite this large. Only ten people. But it was very similar.
I think that's what my plaque meant when it said "participant."

No, it wasn't in this house.
Master Blue... is harder to determine. The facilitator of our game was anonymous as well. But he didn't go by Blue. He went by Zero. The only other assistant the participants could speak to was an AI named Zero the Third, who was completely computer based and only focused on making sure the rules were followed.

There's no proof it's even the same person. The current year seems to make that suspect enough. Even if it was the same person, there may be completely different aims in what they would want to do.
That's a little besides the point, though.

No. I've never met anyone here before, and I don't know of anyone else that's been in the same, um... situation.
Correct.
Out of the ten participants... seven died by the end. One person was left behind, and two escaped. One was conscious, the other was not.
Before the escape, it was determined that the six people who had died up to that point may have been due to murder - not from the game, but from the actions of another player. The two people who determined that were the conscious escapee, and the person who was inevitably left behind.
[And if Mammon can do some basic math, there is something missing here.]

I'm not. Six people were dead before the escape. Seven were dead by the end of the game.
I... was neither of those options.

[There's a beat... and she nods.]
I was the seventh. I was the one determined to be the guilty party. And after the escape... I was killed for breaking the rules placed on me.

No. I can guarantee that much.
I... assume I'm in a similar position to Asch, if what he said was true.

[Well, the last ghost he talked to was transparent, so...yeah, that makes sense.]
People don't just get brought back from the dead like its nothing. That's SUPER powerful magic. That's like magic only really powerful beings could do. Even witches and mages don't touch that stuff.

Possibly... But yes, you're right. A human can't be brought back, even with most advanced technology available.
I don't know what else to tell you, I'm afraid. I just know that I should be dead... but I'm not.

[Mammon leads Luna out of the study. He's...so tired. His mind is...a mess. Thinking about his brothers is a mess on top of a mess.]
Hm.
[He finally turns a corner, walking into the ballroom - he leans on one of the walls, glancing up at the crystal chandeliers. They're...beautiful.]
[Almost too beautiful.]
...Satan didn't Fall like the rest of us did. He came from Lucifer himself.

[She follows that gaze, first up to the chandeliers, then back to him, her brow furrowed with concern. Not over his story, of course, but over just how tired he looked.]
When you say fall... do you mean that you were originally from somewhere else?

[She simply nods. It's what she had assumed, but it seemed rude to not hear it from him.]
Were... you an angel before that, then? Or am I misspeaking?

Yep. Me and my six brothers were angels.
[It's probably part of the reason why he's not exactly a very typical demon.]
Anyways, a lot happened. We fought in the Celestial War...and then we Fell. Around that time, Satan was born. He was never an angel like we were.

And that birth was directly from Lucifer, then? [NOT GONNA EVEN BOTHER ABOUT THE IMPLICATIONS HERE it's fine]
That would mean he's the only one who came into existence never knowing Heaven. I... imagine he has some different ideas of the world than the rest.
Am I understanding correctly so far?
