CAFE AND DINER RECEIPT FROM 10/07/17
EMPLOYEE 1313
RECEIPT: MRSAMSAIM03
STATUS: OPEN
Breakfast was served without much warning, but I suppose it is the start to any good morning. Mrs. Amsaim had words to share, read our transcript if you dare.
S.O.T
[Time approx. 3:45 AM. Orange Juice served for breakfast at a reasonable distance]
Mrs. Amsaim: You watch me from the shadows, would it not be easier to see me in the light?
1313: From what I’ve heard it’s best not to see you at all.
Mrs. Amsaim: Foolish rumors and hearsay. Wouldn’t it be nice to have our chat, face-to-face?
1313: Nice try. Who are you and what do you want?
Mrs. Amsaim: Really? This again? Didn’t you pests already ask this of me?
1313: We’re different pests. At least, different from the ones who were watching you before.
Mrs. Amsaim: Ah, so you are fresh blood? Well, even if you are too rude to look at me I will show you some common courtesy. My name is Gloom. I hail from the splendid realm of unknown terrors, the Everdark.
1313: Your realm, is it in the Otherside?
Mrs. Amsaim: The “Otherside” how gauche. We are older than the demon scum of the Otherisde. We were once all there was before that wretched light burst through our realm.
1313: Okay, what do you want from our realm, Gloom? Also do the flies follow you?
Mrs. Amsaim: I want nothing of your dirt realm but to follow the flies to where they may fester. I have business with the beast. Now, if you’ll excuse me Rachel-
1313: I never told you my name.
Mrs. Amsaim: The shadows speak of you, Rachel. They speak of you and your Cafe. So long as you are not the same pests as before I see no reason we should get in each other's ways. I only wish to follow the flies.
1313: I can’t just let you roam around killing those who look at you and suffocating those who don’t in your fog.
Mrs. Amsaim: None have died yet have they? If I wanted death I would have brought death.
1313: Fine. We don’t want that. What can we do to get you out of here faster?
Mrs. Amsaim: I thought you’d never ask.
