Not quite, no. But we will be entering a place from which humans are not meant to return. It is the Dark Room. The very same location your fellow residents have spoken about in hushed whispers, misunderstanding its purpose.
[Relax, Emily. You're only meeting a dead person through unknown means in a room that's meant for the consumption of human flesh. It's fine.]
I will provide you protection during your time there. The veil that separates the dead and the living is not to be tampered with, but there are... exceptions. That is why I must set the stage: to create the necessary conditions. You won't be able to speak to him until tomorrow morning.
