Part 6 of the story

by 36 Comments

By Doreen Yuan

A Review of the Urban-Legend storytelling rules:

1. The comment section is part of the story. All comments are ordered by the number.

2. Comments that include a >> and a number (ex: >>1) are replies to the comment with that number.

3. Anonymous users in the comment section are part of the story. There are multiple anonymous accounts.

4. The main characters named No Longer Human and Curry are part of the story in the comments.

5. Readers can leave messages in the comment section but should not intentionally destroy or try to confuse the coherence of the story.

6. Readers can respond to any anonymous character interaction in the comment section–that response may change and contribute to the story.

7. Do not use inappropriate language.

8. The roles and anonymity in the comment section are created by the primary story author himself.

9. The time of all messages is based on the time of writing.

10. Have fun, and enjoy it.

*This is a continuing story. The last installment was posted December 16, 2019. The story is told through the “Comments” section. Read them carefully.

    I think you need to turn around and run away. Didn’t you say at the beginning that the light behind you disappears quickly? I think you were unconsciously turned around by the magic tunnel at the very beginning, so now you are moving towards the drums.
