Another Taste of the Criminal Palette
As your hand rubs at your throat as if it were your own neck sliced so cruelly, you have a momentary calm come over you. After all, this must be a dream, right? First you find Sylvia, bound and hung from a tree, then Dr. Feels bludgeoned to death in the Chapel, and now you walk into your guest bedroom and find Lillian, bled out and lifeless on the floor. What is this horrible island? you want to scream, but know that no one would hear you in such a large house.
After having found Sylvia, you told Rudy, her son, of the horrible scene… on return from investigating it, however, he harshly berated you for playing such a horrible prank. “There is no one out there.” He said coldly. “Mother is most likely in her bedroom asleep by now… why don’t you be a good girl and run along to bed too?” The last of the sentence had an edge to it which made it clear to you that he was not to be bothered any more.
You had almost managed to convince yourself you HAD seen nothing, until an hour later when, hoping to find solace in the chapel, you instead found the blood smeared body of the good doctor propped up on one of the front pews, a heavy religious icon on the floor at his feet. This time you had run to find Lillian, but you couldn’t locate her anywhere. You ran to the bathroom and dry heaved for a few minutes, composed yourself, and returned to the guest-room you shared with your best friend.
That is, you once shared with your best friend. Now her lifeless body lay prostrate before you. Suddenly, strangely, you note that more than fear or sadness, you’re curious… Lillian’s hair had always been a short, dark bob… but now she was wearing it very long and blond, unlike anyone you had seen in recent fashion. Lillian had never mentioned she wore a wig… but why hide it? Why wear a wig to begin with?
This nightmare on the island was growing only more and more baffling (not to mention dangerous)... you wipe your brow and step out of the room to think. The next move you make may be your very last…

Thank you very much.
I’ve decided now it’s about time I start replying to my comments… after 2.5+ years… I can’t go back, but I get relatively few now, so I can go forwards.
