WEEK 6

WEEK 6

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

Five weeks. It's been five weeks, and twenty-seven has now dwindled down to eleven. And while only two passed this week, this trial may have been the most devastating in its own way, as threads of patience frayed and fragments of trust fractured. Nevertheless, if The Lady is to be believed, that may very well have been the final set of sacrifices that she was waiting for, so perhaps the end is in sight.

Of course, the fact that everyone is still stuck in Krakow means that it's not over yet, and who even knows what's happening over in the Twilight?

And so, some more changes are in store for this week, even if it may not be the same ones that you've gotten used to. For one thing, the fog stays put and no new areas of the city are revealed under the light of the lampposts. Secondly, The Lady is nowhere to be found in the city, with her bookstore office vacated and abandoned with nary a trace as to where she went. And third, the clock tower will no longer operate, which-- well. Actually that's not new at all, but it certainly may make it difficult to keep up with the facade of passing days. At least the moon still serves as a reminder of that, gibbous phase waxing into something fuller over the course of the week even if the color looks a bit off.

It may not be a fresh new start, but it's not time to give up yet, is it? After all, you are all Survivors.

[[Welcome to Week 6! Note that there are no new locations this week, but feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. As alluded above, The Lady will be unavailable, while Rembrandt will still be around on Monday and Tuesday before disappearing for the rest of the week.]]

I don't think Rembrandt is aware of Twilight either. He doesn't seem to know how the electricity has been coming back either, and definitely doesn't think it has anything to do with the souls of the dead.

He seems to have a very strict idea of how souls work, actually, and says that they're usually dealt with quickly by "neutral arbiters" and don't hang around in limbo.

Did he? Fascinating. We only discussed souls briefly, and I was unable to determine whether he was trying to hint at knowing about the Twilight or not. That's good to know.

We didn't exactly talk about it, but I think you're right about him not knowing.

Back when the museum first lit up, he asked me what happened and I asked him if he really didn't know. Then he said it'd be "considerably less amusing" if he was always watching us.
