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.]]

...Why would she go to so much trouble to set up traps if you were still able to get in and gather information?

[mmmmm he doesn't like it.]

I don't suggest attempting to take them apart, that could set off other traps. Do you have any idea what would happen if one of those traps was triggered, however?

[deadlygoals]

Zangetsu said there was fire when he tapped on the glass before. It may light the whole place up.

She may have been hoping we would be foolish to break in without seeing the traps. Or she might not care if we do find it. At this point, she already believes that she's won.

[psychophant]

Her ego is going to be her downfall.

[He's still mad, yeah, but that's stated like it's a fact.

Anyway.]

You two got everything you could from that place, correct? We don't need to risk sending anyone else in there unless it's absolutely necessary.

[deadlygoals]

We did.

[ Unless he wants all the gross used tools ]

[eww, gods no]

That's good. You both have my thanks for the information you've provided.

[pr159]

I used my ability to retrieve the reports, for the record, so while I also think it's suspicious that the ballroom windows were unlocked, it wasn't like the information inside was just readily available to anyone.

[psychophant]

Oh, excellent, that's good to know. She presumably would know about the limitations of all of our abilities given how much she's studied, but I'd be more concerned if this information had simply been left lying out in the open.
