WEEK 1

WEEK 1


Your hosts have come and gone, and have left you with nothing but more questions and a key. Regardless of how you reacted or what you decided to do soon after that, it’s a fact that the day must end eventually.

And so it does, with the striking of the clock. As the twelve gongs reverberate and disappear into the night, the rest of the city is left silent save for a chilly wind that skims the streets. Those who have retired to their assigned rooms will find that the furnishings are decent enough to get a good night’s sleep, while those who wander the city will only continue to see empty streets and fog. But regardless of how you spend the night, eventually it will become readily apparent that dawn will not be coming any time soon as the waxing moon continues to hang in the sky even as the clock strikes six or seven or eight.

No one’s stopping you from wallowing in bed or holing up in a building during this perpetual night, but there’s a whole city out there to check out and some interesting additions to the Opera House decor; don’t forget though, a cage is a cage and every good cage needs its bars. While a portion of the streets and buildings are clear, any intrepid explorers won’t find themselves able to get very far through the fog that surrounds them; anyone who tries to venture through will end up getting turned around and end up right back where they started. Still, there’s plenty of other places to check, even if the fog-shrouded buildings are more or less off limits. Fortune favors the bold, after all.

[[Welcome to Week 1! Feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. You can also now privately contact The Lady or Rembrandt at your leisure!]]

I need to rectify something immediately.

With a marker? [you'd need that kind of pen to write on glass, right. He hasn't heard about the profiles yet, having stuck to the main square, so this is coming off kind of suspicious.]

If you've found something, you shouldn't hide it.

Ah, they have put up profiles for everyone, if you have not noticed. Mine is full of incorrect information, so you shouldn't believe a word of it.

...

Some of it is correct, but there are very clear errors.

Huh... [Well, he's been sticking to the main square so he had no idea thus far.]

I haven't been out much because of the injury. If they're going to spread rumors, could you tell if there's anything that seemed strange in mine?

[Seteth slows down and thinks it over, but, well...]

...it's somewhat difficult for me to say, honestly. There were terms that were unfamiliar to me, but I am not sure if they're simply something commonplace in your world but unheard of in mine.
