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!]]

[ He'll look a little sheepish there. He can't say he was surprised, given the kind of personality he had. ]

Haha, well, I'm glad the misunderstanding was cleared up sooner rather than later. I'd also ask what gave you that impression...but I think I can guess how you read me like that.

[ Rean knew he was outwardly positive in a situation like this, which was difficult, and how that might look to other people, among other things. ]

I'm sure you can.

[ said as she takes another sip of her tea. ]

Information sharing in itself isn't the most terrible of ideas; I'm more wary of the possibility that the Lady and Rembrandt will be watching.

[ Judging by the look on his face, he didn't even disagree with the possibility at all. ]

I'm wary of that too, but I also think we're at the stage that if they have their eyes and ears on us, it's not something that we can avoid.

You have a point. Chances are they've already started keeping surveillance on us.

[ she'd ask how, but they haven't revealed all of their capabilities. and with power so great, so surmountable... it seems like anything's possible. ]

I wouldn't doubt it at all. They seemed like they were doing their best to have all of this go as they plan.

[ He's still not over how eager they appeared to want them to kill each other. It was insane, and creepy, to be frank. ]
