WEEK 4

WEEK 4


Last week could probably only be summed up as a mess. Three people died, one was turned to currency and the hotel pool remains in a general state of unusability unless swimming in pulpy mush is someone’s idea of a good time. And that’s not even counting the haunted morse code T-Rex. At least the greenhouse is as relaxing as ever, even if someone seems to have made off with a number of succulents and cacti.

But with the new week comes a new set of locations to explore as the fog retreats to reveal another portion of the city. The half moon wanes to a new moon this week, leaving streets even dimmer this week -- hopefully you have some other portable sources of light available if you plan on straying too far beyond the reach of the lampposts in the new areas.

[[Welcome to Week 4! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 4 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.]]

[ There is a moment he considers telling him it's anyone you stand on the bridge and converse with because would be funny to see if Rideaux would leave quickly.

Instead he'll point out one of the locks which has a pair of initials with a heart between them. ]


It's the locks. You put a lock on the bridge with your lover. We have one in Yokohama.

So people just carry padlocks to these bridges with them?

[ like, HE'S LOOKING AT THE LOCKS, but that just seems so dumb ]

Where did that tradition come from?

Who even knows~ Someone probably just started it as a prank, and people took it seriously.

[ Peeking around at some of the others. ]

Do you know how to pick locks?

I've done it on rare occasion, but I wouldn't consider it a skill.
