Week Two

[stagemanagers]

[Last week, no murder happened! Instead, a lot of students started work on Salieri's school play, which sounds pretty cool even though it's gonna be short, several people destroyed Bigfoot and got a few mysterious clues, and Orpheus started a fire in the kitchen! All in all, not a bad first week!

Though some people might have gone to talk to Hester, she hasn't made any more public announcements. There's some new papers posted up around the cafeteria, but it looks like it's just your upcoming lunch schedule. Seems like nothing's driving you towards Rule Five except, perhaps, all of the kidnapping and how criminally boring some of you are finding the school. Maybe the Balladeer is right, and you really can just wait this out? Only time will tell!]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( No new locations this week, since y'all haven't paid in blood! Hester's office hours are still open, as are regains! Make sure to complete your first activity check by Tuesday! ))

That’s-

[Absurdly, Mumble brightens up.]

That’s great! If you know now, and she knows them, then you could both work together to stop it!

[Angus makes a small noise.]

I suppose you are correct. She is not human, and we would immediately tell she is the killer on sight. [But...] Maya has never met her. Perhaps we will not meet her until that fateful day.

[prophetpriestandking]

Even then - you'll know it'll be coming, so you'll be able to be prepared.

[mcfife]

I can only hope it is soon. I would rather not spent years looking over my shoulder.

[He's done with washing. Now he's just cold. Angus grabs a towel and wraps it around himself.]

I could ask the wizards of the mountains if they can change my fate.

[prophetpriestandking]

Who are the wizards of the mountains?

[Aside from the obvious.]

[mcfife]

The members of the ancient sect of future-seers high in the Cairngorm Mountains. They foretold a great war in space one thousand years before it happened, and if they were not all slain, they can save me.

[prophetpriestandking]

There we go! It's not all hopeless.

[mcfife]

[What would Angus do without Mumble's encouragement? Where would he be without allies who explain things?]

I suppose. I should learn not to despair so easily. [He wraps the towel around himself.] We could also ask them for an answer to your people's fish problem.

[prophetpriestandking]

[I’m sure we’ll find out eventually :)]

Yeah! That too - if they have all that power, surely they’d be willing to help. No murder required.
