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.]]

[Overall an expected scent you'd find in a laboratory; and being the fastidious bastard that he is Ulquiorra will catch the underlying scents, too. He doesn't bother to mess with the jars themselves -- a cursory examination is enough. Instead, he'll move on to the books and the notes to see their progress, only throwing a brief and flat glance at Alfyn's argument.]

If you think there is no reason, when the entire reason for our existence here is to simply be sacrificed in creative ways, then you're far more foolish than I thought.

[And he already thought the fellow was plenty foolish. Alas.]

If anything new begins, it will begin with greater bloodshed, as this week did.

[Good luck with the notes-- while they're mostly in Polish, since Alfyn has no desire to hide them from other people who might like them combined with the books, there's a smattering of his home world's language mixed throughout for the odd side note.]

I'm not arguing that these people won't keep doin' something, I just don't think we can rely on this being the only thing they're doin'. This week it's "murder for the chance to be erased" but next week [Since it's clearly a weekly pattern] might be a maimin' instead. Or a "game" where we have ta play roulette for the outcome. Giving in and not preparing would be worse than preparing and not needing it.
