event: don't you forget about me

[mayfield_mods]

[For those of you venturing into Mayfield's library today, you can find the head librarian hard at work at the front desk or shelving books. Most people who try to approach her will simply get a stern look and a reminder to keep their voices down.

If you happen to have something of hers though, you may get quite a different reaction...]

[OOC: This post is locked to characters who have a memento. Please do not reply if you don't have one. For those who do, you can go ahead and respond in any order; however, day 7's memento will be chronologically the last one she'll see.]

[It may be just a trick of the light, but it almost seems like the wrinkles on the old woman's face are getting smoother.]

Thank you. And everyone, for giving me everything back.

[The air parts to reveal a portal to the wasteland.]

I'll come back, I promise. Once I recover, once I get stronger, I'll come back and help. You just have to hang in there a little longer, okay? Even in the darkest of times, there's always hope.

[And with that, she steps through the portal. It closes behind her, and she vanishes from the library without a trace.]
