HalloweenJack: Well, we finished the lanterns, and Jenny said she cooked something from what was left of normal food. We can start. Can you pass the first test? At night, of course! Task: Go through the living room in the night mode. Jenny: Ta-da! And here's the main course! Oh... Jenny pauses in the doorway, peering into the dark living room when Jack strikes the lighter, and the room becomes illuminated by pumpkin lanterns. Jenny: Wow, it's so beautiful! We used to do that at home! Beautiful... But something is off - one of the lanterns is missing. You walk up to Jack. Jack: Yes, the last one didn't light up. I'll see what I can do... A scarlet dress flashes nearby, you hear the laughter. Surrounded by a few followers, a whitened face is shining. Alice salutes you with a glass, smiling. You hear a quiet conversation. Jim: Thank you, Jenny. I completely forgot about the birthday. Jenny: Don't mention it! It wasn't difficult. You know, I've never seen Alice so happy... Suddenly the camera crackles and sparks. You look around in search of Jack, he looks expectantly at the camera... Camera's glass eye slowly looks around the room, the light is blinking as usual. Jack shakes his head angrily and turns away. Jim: I wondered why he became so interested in Halloween... I'll go talk to him. But Jack comes to you himself. Jack: Did you pass the test? Let me do the next one. Jim: Jack... Jack: Leave me alone. Have fun! It's a holiday, damn it. Jim shakes his head and joins his brother for the test. The holiday is gradually coming to an end. Almost everyone has left, the last couples are whispering in the corners, some even dancing. Jenny comes to you with a plate of her "main course". Jenny: Feather, have you tried the colcannon? Delicious, isn't it! Especially after the pumpkin diet. This is a national dish, my mom used to make it... The mirage of a dancing couple is fading away under the pressure of warm reality, smelling of boiled potatoes and butter. Jenny comes to you with a plate of her "main course". Jenny: Feather, have you ever tried colcannon? It's really tasty! Especially after the pumpkin diet. This is the national dish. My mother used to cook it... You celebrated Halloween and received some points of freedom and some tokens Jenny: Mother told us about the night of the dead, when the souls of the dead and magical creatures come to earth. We prepared colcannon and left half of it for the spirits... But this time the living were too hungry and ate almost everything. |
