A
Knightmare fanfic by Andrew Buckley, published on
NKTP in September 2000. It is a sequel to
The Clearing which was published a month earlier. The title is based on the tagline of the 1979 film
Alien ("
In space, no one can hear you scream").
While
Treguard mourns his old friend
Pickle, the
elf is trapped in the Afterlife, unable to
return unless the
Dungeon Master can be convinced that he is still alive - despite having witnessed his death. Meanwhile,
Hordriss suffers a bereavement of his own.
In
The Void Of Creativity, it is implied that Andrew wrote the fanfic in response to a complaint by Lucy (
Sidriss Starshine) about Pickle's death in
The Clearing.
