I can see humans and monsters slowly screaming in pain as all I can hear is chewing and screaming. Other people was talking as time goes by as well. I was really surprised about this. As we was walking by, we noticed a guy waiting for us.

"Welcome, welcome! Are you here to grab a bite?" -The person said

"No, I'm just here to show my friend something, she's new here." -Elijah said

He turns to look at me.

"And who is this fine woman?" -The person said

It's Jayla, sir. -I said

He laughs a bit.

"And she is nice too. Well then Elijah, hope you take care of her well!" -The person said as we both walked away from him.

So what are we doing here? -I asked

"Well, we are not just here to eat if possible, I need to show you what it feels like to have a insane cannibal exist here." -Elijah said.

We started to walk inside of a black room. There is sign above us that reads: INSANE HALL. As soon as we walk inside, the screams was coming more and more often then before we walked in.

"This...is the Insane Hall. If you happen or is close to going insane, you have to enter here to kill someone." -Elijah said

Wait, then why are people eating others outside of the hall? -I asked

"They have either fully controlled their sanity or they don't go insane." -Elijah said

Okay then, are you hungry by any chance? -I asked

"No, are you? I mean, you have that axe on you for a reason right?" -Elijah said

Yeah but it's mostly for self defense. -I asked

There is multiple rooms in a single hall. Each room shows a chair, ropes, chains or handcuffs to keep the victim still. Weapons to choose from and a mop and a bucket of fresh water to clean the room up before you leave the hall. You have to close the door behind you before you start to eat the victim and when your done, you have to keep the door open to allow others to enter in. Only one person can enter the room.

There is a lot more of those rooms in the Insane Hall then in the normal area. I guess it's due to more cannibals going insane in the village more then normally.

That reminds me, which people do we eat anyways? -I asked, confused

"Well you are about to find out!" -Elijah said.

I see a door open and a girl walked away, wiping blue blood off of her face and put her hair back down. After that, I walk inside and closed the door behind me.

The floorboard opens up and the chair started to go into the floor and out shows up a panel of which victim to eat.

I think carefully because I don't know who to eat myself to be fair. But in the end, I pick a wolf.
