What is she doing here? How long has she been here? | + Mirrors challenge (**Special** for 100%)
 **Forgetting, again**
She has been here always. You just forget, most of the time. It's easier to deceive other people if you've forgotten her yourself.
You'll forget again tomorrow. You're not yet ready to remember all the time.+ Airs of Terror = (1 to 100)
+ Visitation =  Date+2
+ Flickering = 1 [The devils of Carillon claim to be experts in the assessment and improvement of the soul. They would describe yours as intermittently tantalising with an aftertaste of disappointment.]
+ You Are Not Yourself = 4 [You are not yourself.]
She talks. Or rather: she uses your tongue and your lips to form words, words you see and feel rather than hearing. Your voice is left silent, your throat straining but unsounded.
She tells you: the words of a London song about the night sky. The formula that describes an ellipse. The number of bees in a hundredweight. That your fingers have left rusty smudges on your dressing gown again. That the present situation is one in which regrets are not appropriate. She names a date in the near future, without explaining what it means.+ Airs of Terror = (1 to 100)
+ Visitation =  Date+2
+ Stained = 1 [The devils of Carillon claim to be experts in the assessment and improvement of the soul. They would describe yours as over-rich, cindered and irrevocably damaged.]
+ You Are Not Yourself = 4 [You are not yourself.]
 **Unsee her**
Convince yourself the eyes are a human shade. Convince yourself the posture is natural. | + Veils challenge (**Special** for 100%)
 **Turn away**
You don't want to see. You don't want to understand. You don't want even to wonder. Rip out imagination by the roots. In the morning, you will have fewer eccentricities and fewer existential doubts.+ Airs of Terror = (1 to 100)
+ Visitation =  Date+2
+ Clear = 1 [The devils of Carillon claim to be experts in the assessment and improvement of the soul. They would describe yours as disappointingly clear; almost transparent.]
If you remember this later, you will think of it as a nightmare, brought on by diet or disquiet or some change in the air. If you remember her eyes, you will think of them as a Deviless you once met. If you remember her mouth, you will think of the face of the Empress stamped on a coin.
When you have forged a receipt for each thing that worries you, you can sleep again.+ Airs of Terror = (1 to 100)
+ Visitation =  Date+2
+ Flickering = 1 [The devils of Carillon claim to be experts in the assessment and improvement of the soul. They would describe yours as intermittently tantalising with an aftertaste of disappointment.]
