WEEK 1 MINGLE - KALMIA

[foundationmods]

All of the guests awoke in their rooms, just like they had before.

Yesterday had been a day of surprises.
First, they'd finally met the person who had brought them here - the Witch of Dimensions, Yuuko.
Secondly, they'd learned they were going to be playing a horrible game.
And most important, they learned that wishes could be granted if they won this game.🗈

Still, for now, it seemed like there wasn't much to do. Was the Witch already in talks with the 'Murderer'? Was the 'victim' already decided upon?

There was no way to know until some day later this week, apparently.

Still, it wasn't all bad. The island was beautiful and the climate just perfect for beachgoing, or taking a cosy walk in the garden. There were also board and card games which would be produced upon request - and the tv in the Sitting Room - to help ease the boredom of it all.

Though, perhaps the guests would prefer to get to know each other instead? On maybe get into some trouble as they roamed the island.

Despite being told someone will die, it...felt remarkably peaceful. Could one of their own really be able to kill someone?

...Or, maybe...this is just the silence that comes just before a massive storm breaks, and sweeps away everything...

But you're spiritually related!

[He's probably joking(?).]

Since you're not an assassin, are you going to join everyone else trying to stop this before it starts?

[People sure seem worked up.]

[excavated]

Spiritually related?

[?????]

And yeah. I'd like to, actually.

[anonnomnomnom]

It's the spirit of the thing!

[Is he just getting more and more incomprehensible. Surely it's your imagination.]

I think it'd be kind of a pity to stop it without even seeing what the Game is about. Even if she's not really Yuuko, she still seems like a pretty important Witch. I think I'd like to see where this leads.

[ HE DOESN'T GET IT ]

You can see what the game is about, but... I don't want to see where it leads if everything is at the cost of lives again.

[anonnomnomnom]

[RIP Syaoran.]

Right, right, I keep forgetting how new you are.

It's going to keep happening, you know? Here, or at the Foundation. Everything's going to cost lives. That's the kind of place we're in!

[He's still unaccountably chipper about all of it.]

[excavated]

It doesn't have to be like that. It never has to be.

[anonnomnomnom]

[He just reaches over and gives him a little pat on the shoulder. Pat, pat.]

You can say that until you're blue in the face. But you don't have the power to change it yet! None of us do.

[excavated]

"Yet" doesn't mean that it can't happen, though.

[anonnomnomnom]

Of course, of course. We're here to fight the Witch in the first place, so a Witch can't be invincible.

[excavated]

There's no such thing as someone that's invincible.

[anonnomnomnom]

Actually, I think so too. Really, there's just people with more power, and people with less power. And even then, there's people who know how to use their power, and people who don't!

I wonder which of those our Witches can do!

[excavated]

That's just something we'll have to find out.
