#Damned by Egotism (feng min)

What did each survivor do to get here?

“Dey each a’e he’e because of sins committed in life, even if dey demselves deny it.” If Philip had learned of the treachery of Evans father, Sally’s lost husband, and horrible truth of the little girls in the red forest before he had ever questioned his fellow hunters then it was true that the spirit world did not hold secrets from those that walked in it. The same was true for survivors as over time the spirit hunter saw as their literal shadow within the spirit world would flicker and reveal secrets of the past. “But if you wish to know specifics, I can elaborate.”

“De’e Leada lived a life of sloth, I saw him throw away talents in life in place of chasing wild dreams and failing dismally. I think it’s only now dat he realises da truth, as da pain of his self ineptitude follows him everywhere.”         

“Da runna is arrogant and brash, someone who would keep moving forward instead of stopping to learn from her past. De’e was a moment she could have captured a great destiny, but without thinking she left dat purpose to rot, dat act has stranded her in dis place.”

“Jake has always been reckless and selfish, he too was given an opportunity fo’ greatness and drew it away fo’ his own want. He wanted to live a life fo’ himself away f’om humanity and now pays fo’ it wid his blood.”

“Da Botanist is vain, not in da stereotypical sense but in da way she will cling to othas fo’ her own gain. She wasn’t like this in life, but sometimes people a’e sent to dis place to be tested, and she is one dat fails are her own redemption.”  

“Karlsson is nihilistically chaotic she cares not of her own kin who she believes forsook her for deir own wants. Sometimes I have doubts as to why some of da victims a’e he’e but I have seen first hand of Nea’s sins when she burned down da asylum wid Sally and herself inside.”

“Laurie is someone who I in some sense understand. I know what it’s like to lose friends, and I know what it’s like to seek revenge. Da difference between us is I choose to stop, and she did not.”

“Visconti should be an easy case to understand, a gambla, greedy, and ill content wid what he had. It’s not surprising dat a man like him is he’e as dat luck he clings to doesn’t exist it’s only a divulging path of fate.”

“Bill is simila’ dough unlike Ace’s poison he indulged in da much deadlier sin of wrath. I saw visions of him in war delighting in slaughta, and when he went back to his home country he could neva settle wid peace.”

“Feng Min is anotha consumed by her ego. So consumed wid climbing to da top of her ‘game’ she left behind everyone dat cared about her, and widout dem she fell. She still believes she can become da greatest in dis place, when time itself works against her.”

“There might be some people who we’e always just doomed to exist he’e, I believe David is one of dose people. He has been violent towards eva’ything he takes part, a habit dat has been so natural to him I am unsure if he can even change his own nature.”

“The most interesting of late has been Quentin, sent he’e by his own fanaticism but damned by something much diffe’ent dan da othas. Da boy learned secrets of a world most humans neva see, but he broke his promise and did not keep dem to himself. Fo’ a long time he evaded his hunta, but all who fall onto da path to come to dis place will enta it eventually.”

The Wraith pauses for a moment, kneading his hands towards. “However fo’ as many dings as I have learned about da othas dat dwell in dese lands, I am still unsure if dese reasons a’e da full truth. Perhaps all da visions I see a’e false and it was a completely diffe’ent hand of fate dat lead us all he’e. I do know dis howeva, da Gods have a great purpose fo’ humanity dat all of us need to take part in.” His voice suddenly turns cold and his gaze wanders off towards the distance. “As unfair as it seems, I know all dose dat exist in dis reality have failed da God’s plan in some way. Da difference is if we can still find oua purpose in da end.”
