Unfortunately, the door seemed to be locked. Or, at least, it wouldn't open. But as you looked back into the room you found the mirror was doing something quite interesting; it seemed to be cracking all on its own. In the mirror, you could see many of you... And some of you looked bloody, some looked back at you with a crazed smile, others looked at you with dull eyes. One of them beckoned you closer.
My brain screamed at me to back away but I was curious my interest piqued and I stepped closer to the mirror Their just images after all, they can't hurt you. i reasoned.

No street signs, only a small road and the main road.

As you stand in front of the mirror, you feel a cold chill pass through the room, as if you were not the only one here anymore.
You have entered multiplayer mode. Since you are the only one here as of now, you will not see any other players until they enter as well.
Some of the refracted images smirk and laugh at you, others claw at the other side of the mirror, but the one beckoning you from before now pointed to your left, at the fireplace. At a specific candle on the right side of the mantle.
She raised an eyebrow and laughed, turning back to her horses. "Better come out of there alive, Mr. Detective."
After some time, you come to the edge of a shadowy forest. The horses neigh and pull on the reins, refusing to go anymore further into the forest. The driver points down the road. "It's that way. My beauties won't go any further, so that'll be here, then."
A reminder ping of sorts. It's been two days, rules say try to progress every three days or so.

"Thank you for taking me this far." Clint said offering her a few dollars he had floating in his wallet.

((Whispers to you that we're not in America))
She takes the money and tips her hat. "Have a good night, Mr. Detective." With that and a flick of the reins, she's off, back the way you came, leaving you at the edge of what looked like a haunted forest.
You walked in because there wasn't anything else to do, and you notice something right away; there seems to be no signs of animal life, and the plant life seems to be struggling, even the trees. It's really dark, and you stumble along, but finally you reach a place where a small road diverges off of the main road and the main road continues forwards.
