[Rules and Ghost Stories ➕ Suspense and Horror ➕ Psychological Horror ➕ Suspense Reasoning ➕ No cheats, don't enter if your heart can't stand it]
Rule 1: Ghosts cannot be killed, only avoided.
They are the remains of obsessions after death, bound by a set of absolute rules—how to show up, how to kill, how to choose your targets. Rules are the shackles of ghosts and the only weapons of living people. Ordinary people do not have any special abilities and can only survive by observing, reasoning, and using rules in fear.
Rule 2: Every ghost has rules, and the rules do not contradict themselves.
If you find an "exception" to the rule, it's not that there is a loophole in the rule, but that you haven't seen the full picture of the rule - and that "exception" is likely to kill you.
Rule 3: Death when triggered, cannot be aborted.
——Unless you encounter a ghost who will give you a chance to make amends. But the remedy itself may be a deeper trap.
Very pretty hehe
