[ SEE GAME NAVIGATION TO READ UP ON HECK GAME BEFORE PLAYING IF YOU SO DESIRE ]

A: Garden Level - CLEAN UP CREW
[WHUH OH YOU'VE DIED AND ENDED UP IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL. A usually beautiful sight--this time it seems the water from heaven is spilling over! Watch your step or you might get a stream of ocean water cascading atop your head like a prop bucket.

The imps and cherubs are hard at work with a water pump tho!! They've got this, really. "Don't mind us, we're just--doing paperwork! Yep!! THAT'S ALL IT IS."

Reassuring. More alarming, you may have noticed that you've changed. Depending on your alignment, you may have more heavenly or hellish traits.............or just for May, you may have AQUATIC traits. That's not worrying!!

Well as some oldbies get teleported to the garden as well, maybe you can ask them some questions!!]

B: HECK-LING TIMES
[Now if you take the elevator down to Hell's Hotel, it's water free! However you may be IMMEDIATELY assaulted by some imps who try to jab you with a shiv. Standard hell greeting!! Maybe someone intervenes or maybe you can like, just punch them. The sheep imps ain't shit. The rest of the hotel is surprisingly nice though, and if you have a room assignment there, you'll find it honestly pretty accommodating.

BUT OUTSIDE? Oh buddy is it still flooded!! Some imps are working hard to pump the water out, but it has the added effect of creating whirlpools. Get sucked into one and not only will you be tossed and turned like laundry, but there's a chance a MEMORY will be tossed right out of you! This could be anything from forgetting your name, your bestie's face, where you live, whatever! Don't worry, the effect will wear off in a few hours, or until someone finds the memory and gives it back to you (in the form of floating seashells that will float near the whirlpools!)]

C: HEAVENLY SING-A-LONGS
[Take the elevator up, and you step in the luxurious Heavenly Hotel! And you may be IMMEDIATELY assaulted by sheep cherubs spritzing you with perfumes or colognes or dolling up your hair. They're here to serve!! Once you get rid of those pests though, feel free to explore the ludicrously divine amenities of the hotel.

OUTSIDE isn't nearly as flooded as Hell, though the local ocean has still expanded greatly, but instead there's a different problem...........there are crabs. And seagulls. And fish?? Singing. They're singing SO much.

You may find a chorus of sea critters at any point in Heaven abruptly bursting into a kiss-the-girl style musical, accidentally revealing a crush you might have, or a silly secret. Better hope passing angels and other residents aren't listening too hard! Of course you can just punt the annoying creatures away. Or eat them. That's an option too, sure. ]

Yeah. He's tall. Oh. Yeah. He's got superstrength. Unless he's from after we lost our powers. Then he might be less strong. But if before, then he's got you. Does dying happen a lot here? Feels like it shouldn't count.

[Klaus doesn't think it should anyway. What's the point? Then again, they have definitely been tainted by the multiple deaths and so dying is seen as a basic part of life. So maybe he shouldn't be the one in charge of what's normal here.]

Oh shit. My dad apparently killed me a bunch when I was a kid, which was...uh...fucking news to me, you know? Like I knew he used to leave me locked up in the mausoleum to try to make me less scared of ghosts, but apparently my little mind just like blocked out all the dying that also happened there. [Is that too much information? Klaus doesn't know. They are talking about gruesome deaths, so it's probably fine] And then I fell off a roof at this one party when I was drunk. I overdosed a lot. Uh...most of my 'wow, I guess I avoided death' things were actually dying. Then I got impaled by a harpoon through the chest on accident. And then like dad took me to practice by having me run over a lot of times while playing catch in the road. We call it busball. Oh. That was after killing me and putting me in a trunk. And I got sliced by some weird samurai thing, but that was after Dad told me I was more trouble than I was worth and left me to die when the world ended and I impaled myself on these buffalo horns.

[Is this said with the air of someone that's totally fine and could be talking about the weather? Sure. It's also somewhat more animated than the weather, but that's neither here nor there.]

Oh. Hey!. [Red eyes aren't super unusual. Nobunaga has them. He's fine, so she's fine! But it is kinda surprising she can fit all of that hair under there.] He's...like this talking sponge. He lives in a pineapple under the sea, you know? Works at this place called Krusty Krab. Ks instead of Cs. I'd sing the song, but it would probably feel out of place right now.
