WEEK THREE

28 Guests

You awaken smothered in wonderfully soft blankets. If you are lucky, there is a warm body next to you, but... those are becoming shorter and shorter in supply, aren't they?

It's Monday at Château Ambregris, and you have just arrived here. Whatever clothes you are wearing, whatever injuries you are sporting... They are once again accurate to how you were before this tale began. Whether this leaves you with any urgent matters to take care of or relieved of ailing you had contracted in the 'last' week, the gong of the numerous clocks chimes out indifferently to the hour. Gone is the urgent summons of the past two weeks, with no Witch to greet you.

Rise and shine, and face your 'first' day in your 'new' home! And though you may now think yourself quite familiar with it, maybe another look around wouldn't hurt?

TIME LOOP:

-Characters wake up with the clothes they had with them at their canon point, like in the intro log.
-The state of their bodies is exactly the same as it was on the intro log (for better or worse).
-Any items they accumulated last week are also reset (sorry you'll need to build up your weapon cache again), except items that were given out as event rewards. Please note that the item uses are not reset.

LOCATIONS UPDATED:
- library, gardens
- mud bath → aquarium
- menagerie → photography studio
- grotto → greenhouse

WEEKLY EFFECT

This week every character will have a spirit animal that follows them around like a familiar. The choice of animal is up to you (natural or supernatural), but it should represent them in some way. The animal is restricted in size to that of a large dog and is incorporeal, though it can interact with other spirit animals. As the animal is a representation of their heart and inner self, it might be better at expressing itself than it's owner.

Yes, this is basically daemons. This palace clearly needs more animals for emotional support!

(OOC: Murder proposals and counter proposals are open! )

[ WELCOME, COME IN absolutely doesn't spell a trap, right? The last time something happened, it was just the races. While he is on guard, he doesn't expect to be trapped within the confines of the dark room.

The pictures hanging on the wall depict an older looking Dan Heng with long pointy ears and horns upon his head. There are chains shackled to his wrists and ankles and large nails embedded into his hands. While his lips do not move, there's a cold voice that can be heard.

Someday, they will no longer be able to carry your burden.

The floor turns into a mirror-like surface. There's another Dan Heng that resembles the one everyone knows, but with the horns and ears as the other.

You are my reincarnation. A mirror image.

The reflection shifts and changes to a mirror-like tunnel reflecting several Dan Hengs.

Dan Heng himself, still standing in the room just crosses his arm as he glares at the images. His dragon beside him looks like it's ready to attack the images being displayed. ]

[baebladie]

...Will you let those images distract you?

[ It's filled with them, isn't it?

Playing tricks on the mind is exactly what this place is all about thanks to Ish, unfortunately.

They should have all known it was a trap. ]

[remainsilent]

I won't. [ He will look at Blade. ]

While he is my past, I won't let it define me.

[ Dan Feng. The time in the Shackling prison. All the High Elders that came before...

The red light and the shadows may make it appear like he has rouge under both of his eyes for a moment. ]

[baebladie]

How many times have you said that?

[ Dan Heng's determination is lit up like a bright star in those blue eyes. The rouge that appears in a mirage is both a condemnation but also refuting of what haunts him.

Has he shaken his ghosts so easily? There is only one way to tell. ]

If you believe it, then shouldn't it be easy to continue to turn your back on those images?

Or, is there a part of you that believes that you might be drawn back?

[ Even if he is no longer Dan Feng, does he not still fear being trapped as him by others? ]
