[flop slowly over, dragging key to Herbert.]

I'm sad, this is sad. I don't think opening the mask is going to help... must try. Isabel if you can hear us, pick us up.

Isabel sees a movement from the corner of her eye and raises her head.

A key glimmers at the gear's edge. It must have been knocked of the monster during the fight. Isabel crawls nearer.

This must have been the key Herbert was talking about. Maybe it will open the mask. The least she can do now is to free her friend from the suit and let him spend his last moments without it.

Can you hear me, Isabel? Do you...do you think Nicola can repair him?

;_;

>>282371
Can Isabel even hear us?

Isabel, this might be gruesome, but examine Herbert's head closer. There might be yet a way to save him!

((holy fuck, i did not see that coming!))
find a headless body that looks like herbert's and stick it on!

Isabel... Did you have to rip his head off? At first I was like ;_; but then I lol'd.

I knew it! I knew the french royal family was all robots! Its the only way to explain their tendency to all be MD's and a Spy.

But darn it! your our prince Herbert. Help himmmm! robot or not.

Isabel, the doll. Herbert wouldn't leave his friend in peril. Take the doll.

Herbert might be fixable.

Sitting in the puddle of Herbert's blood Isabel stares at the head she is holding in her hands.

After a while she hesitantly reaches out and inspects it more closely. Maybe Herbert could be repaired.

There is some strange growth on some of the parts. As she touches one of them it sticks to her fur.

Ouch!

Uh oh Isabel are you okay?

can... can you hear us?

Isabel, stay away from barrels, they're not good for you. Isabel, I warned you about that Stabby, I told you dawg. Isabel, don't touch things covered with the nerve network of Chthulhu. Oh god, can you hear us? Down here. Please, pick up the puppet.

Isabel, if you're hearing even the slightest hints of suggestions coming from us, wipe it off onto your shirt (or Herbert's suit, if you dont want it stuck to you). That stuff doesn't seem like a good thing.

The stinging pain stops after a moment. Isabel immediately tries to grab the black veins to get them off but they are already gone. It must have fallen off on itself.

Isabel stands up.

Suddenly she feels like she's being watched. The only things that move in the dark are the gears and the only things making a sound are the old rusty machines but Isabel still doesn't feel as if she's alone down here anymore. Maybe it would be best to just get away from this place.

Maybe I should pick up Herbert's doll. He called it Friend. It'll be something to remember it by if he can't be repaired.

hmmm
[re-sync transmitter]

Friend is Herbert's most treasured item, maybe you should take it with you so that, in case Herbert cant be fixed, you don't have to creepily carry around his severed head to remember him by.

so the real monsters never die because they were never alive?

well this is kinda nice. labirynth is alive somewhere around this bloody glenn.

>>282762
No, I do believe you're mistake.

Herbert and Labyrinth werent monsters. THe only real monster here is that evil scientist thing (not Nicola, the other one), since Im reluctant to call happiness one because Im really hoping he's very dead.

>>282698
Herbert loves that puppet. He named it "friend". Can't leave it behind.

Isabel, you pick up that puppet this instant. No leaving friends behind. That's not how Herbert rolls. He jumped after you even though we knew it probably was to be a one way trip. Pick up the puppet, pick up the puppet, pick up the puppet. Don't leave a friend behind.

>>282762
But he bled.

Maybe she should take the little puppet with her. It seemed to mean a lot to Herbert.

Sadly it won't be able to help her. Nobody will. Herbert was the only one she could trust. Nobody will help her anymore. Only she and the monsters remain now.

Isabel is alone again.

[Say: "Herbert proves that there are good people in the world. You're not alone, you just need to find them."]

Uh... Herbert?

Are you still there?

Good end... no wait, goddammit.

Isabel, don't think like that! What would Herbert say!? He wouldn't want you to just give up!

IF this is the end of the quest, Imma be sad. :<

Good quest though, one of the best Ive seen in a long time in both terms of art and story. Im genuinely sad to see it end like this.

>>283093
There's NO WAY this is the end.

We will find a brand new body for Herbert and we will help Isabel to get out of this nightmare.

Let's win the fuck out of this thing!!

Herbert...? D:

Don't worry, the son of a pirate and a ninja can never die! At least... I hope so ._.;

>Chapter 3 End

Not over yet.

Good, Id hate to leave Isabel in this place. And Herbert without a proper burial/revival. D:

And...well, I just about cried a little in that flash there.

Well done.

If this had been archived before I would have accepted defeat. But now, fuck yearrrrh.

>>284075
When that candle went out and it said 'End' I was right about ready to cry.

>>284086
That would have sucked indeed :(

This chapter has the most appropriate title ever.

My god...
It all makes sense now!

Oh. Yes.
