Project Zero 5/Fatal Frame 5 MOBW - Tenth Drop : "Ghost Marriage"
1Just in time to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Project Zero or Fatal Frame!
Ren desperately travels up Mt. Hikami to find Rui who had disappeared from the shop when he fell asleep guarding the girls. He finds a dilapidated building where the forest swamp was supposed to be. He finds no signs of Rui in the building but learns that the building was a place where the former inhabitants of the mountains once maintained a sacred flame which they also called the "Forbidden Flame". Apparently it was the only thing that could keep the Black Water and the corrosion from the Netherworld at bay. Any who had to approach the Shadowspring for ceremonies or come near the Black Water to make the Reliquaries, must only do so with the Flame at hand.
Continuing through the Shrine of Dolls, Ren eventually reaches the Watarai Residence, the place where Rui was in his dream. He noticed traces of his vanished friend Kazuya as he explored the building. In the study, Ren finds Rui in a Reliquary filled with Black Water. Rui seemingly in a trance drags him in and he wakes up somewhere new. Why does it feel like everything is arranged as though a wedding were about to take place. Was Kazuya "married" here? And to who? Ren eventually learns that it wasn't ordinary marriages that took place here, but "Ghost Marriages". An ancient practice to bind a living soul with the soul of a deceased. On Mt. Hikami it was done to strengthen strong Pillars. The grooms from outside the community were brought before the large reliquaries - the Sacred Casket - with maidens who were already sacrificed to the Black Water. Upon completion of the ceremony the maiden would take the groom into the Sacred Casket.
As Ren explored the building, an old woman greets him. Seemingly delighted at seeing Ren, she addresses him as Asou. Dr. Asou Kunihiko, the inventor of the spirit capturing Camera Obscura. Ren is puzzled as she led him to his "bride" in a room. In the room Ren finds Rui, dressed in a beautiful bridal kimono. As he approaches she suddenly transforms into a terrifying bride in black robes, and as if everything was an illusion Ren finds himself back in the Watarai residence with Rui in his arms. Rui thanks Ren for coming for her, she's still acting a little strange. Ren has come to understand though for the most part Rui was possessed earlier, it would Rui did hold genuine feelings for Ren but never said anything out of consideration of Ren's fears. But before they could leave the residence, the final act of another tragedy began. Ren encountered the ghost of Kazuya. His ghost marriage having failed due to him backing out, he was sealed alone in a reliquary with black water.
