For 15 Strangers Round 3
So a few things.
In the room Vita shared with Passepartout the following things can be found in there:
The glowing opera score
The stickers that make silly squeaky noises
The dress she was wearing on Thursday
A transcription of the song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" that she was using to learn the song
The hairband she got as a regain
The Blade Card deck
Her staff
Feel free to assume the blade card deck has instructions for the game if anyone wants to play, but the deck is marked.
Inside the opera score, she left two folded letters. One is marked as being to Jonathan and one is marked as being to everyone else.

To Jonathan
If you're reading this, then I did partially fail. If that happened I did want you to know a few things. First, I want to apologize for not telling you what I planned that night when we last spoke.
Second, I don't want you to think I lied entirely to you. I did find you quite sweet and adorable and you reminded me a bit of a combination of Crow and one of his friends. Maybe if we had more time I would have been able to stop blaming myself for what happened and moved on. Everything I told you had some grain of truth to it. I did truly enjoy learning that song for you and was so glad I was able to find it before this happened.
But I also do want you to understand why I did what I did. It wasn't to revive him. That is something we can do in my world and will happen. I did what I did to ensure that future would come. The commander told me that if someone didn't die, it wouldn't matter what we did, he would never come back.
If he was just a normal young man and I were a normal young woman, that would be fine. I'd have mourned and moved on. But we weren't. There were greater things happening and he's very hard to replace. Plus at the bottom of my heart, I don't want him to be replaced. I couldn't bear that.
I'm truly sorry I couldn't be just a normal woman and move on and maybe fall in love with you instead. You're a kind and sweet young man and I hope you won't make the same mistake I did. I also want you to know that normally I cannot abide by killing. I only will do it as a last resort and the consequences had a potential to be far worse.
I also want you to know that this letter contains absolutely no lies. It's not everything, because that would take far more than a page would allow me, but it's as close to the truth as I can tell you. I know you may no longer trust me, but I wanted you at least to know.
Please stay safe and live a long and happy life away from here. Also, I would like you to have the score I was given in memory of how much you loved my singing.
Fondly,
Vita

To everyone (CW: implied thoughts of suicide, mentions of death)
If you're reading this, then I must offer my sincerest apologies. I gave no impression that I would even be tempted by that offer and that I'd moved on from a tragedy.
The truth is, I haven't and the Commander threatened his very soul. Her comment about how we wouldn't see each other again meant revival would be impossible and even meeting in the afterlife would be impossible.
I do want all of you to know that I would have preferred it not come to this. I truly loathe needing to kill and while I'm not a truly good person, I do also prefer to avoid needless death. I'm don't care if none of you believe this when I hid so much, but know that everything I said had truth to it. What I hid were things that would be too hard to explain anyhow and don't apply here.
But even so, I cannot bring myself to sacrifice myself. I hope none of you will fault me for not wanting to die. If I could, I'd gladly die for the one I am doing this for, but I just can't do it.
Also, to everyone I did speak to, I truly did like each of you. I even did like the person I tried to kill. Maybe that's why I failed. Or it could be that my primary source of defense was taken away from me. But please do not think I died in vain. If that threat was true then with my death their souls will be safe. I can rest in peace knowing that.
To all of you, please don't fall for this temptation. Find a way home.
Sincerely,
Vita
