WEEK 2

WEEK 2


The first week is over, and two of your number are gone. Everything related to the case has been cleaned up, with nary a knife left at the Main Square nor a trace of the mud shapes that once painted the clock tower walls, although some stray graffiti still dots some storefronts.

However you may feel about the entire debacle on Friday, there’s no doubt that something has changed about the atmosphere, although whether it’s something tangible or just a trick of the mind is hard to say. Maybe it’s nothing. Either way, there are more palpable changes to the city, with some of the fog retreating away from a few of the surrounding areas, uncovering new buildings and streets along the way. The night, however, remains unchanged as always save for the slow waxing of the moon, leaving it bright and full as early as Thursday night. Regardless of if you take it as an omen or not, at least that means the streets will be lit up fairly well for the week, provided some inconvenient cloud cover doesn’t slide right in.

[[Welcome to Week 2! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 2 tab on our Locations page. Once again, 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 privately contact The Lady or Rembrandt.]]

The way I put it changes nothing. We are all here to be sacrifices, lab rats, playthings. That is the playing field.

[Said just as dispassionately as he just accused the dead of being responsible for their own unfortunate ends. The only hint that he's not as neutral as he seems is a brief spark in his eye.

As used as he is to entirely separate levels and dimensions of bullshit, he does have his pride, still.]

[ Hmm... He can't say he knows what that spark is supposed to mean. Overall, this guy is hard to read even if he is incredibly blunt.

Maybe he'll let this slide for now.

If nothing else, you're right about that last bit. There's no way any of us are here for anything else.

[Whacking you over the head with his aura of complete mystery, that's his specialty, of course.]

No. And yet there are those with greater delusions than I thought possible. They think they have the ability to impose their will, or to simply walk in and play without consequence. Foolish.

I think I know who you mean.

[ Scratch that, he's super sure. They are not subtle, sry. ]

But when it comes to guys like that, they're just blowing hot air. Acting like they're in control is the only way they can keep their composure.
