MOCK ROUND - WEEK 1

[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.
Secondly, they'd learned they were going to be playing a false murder mystery for two weeks.
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, 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.

Yet, with only a fake game in front of them....there's no proper sense of foreboding, is there?

....But maybe all of this...

...Is just the calm before the storm.

Just cuz it's true doesn't mean it's not flattering. Though I'm more used to things like "vulture" or "heartless bastard".

[artificialhighness]

And I am more used to flattery being false. But those are the judgments of a very different society from the one I know, I think.

[She can certainly see where the descriptors are coming from -- but it's where they're going that matters at this point.]

[He supposes it makes sense: the skills he learned in acquisitions certainly helped him in the dungeon even if he was doing it 'wrong'. And here maybe they would make him even more effective]

And what about you? You thinking of sticking around like a weed too?

[artificialhighness]

[The so-called society she come from places a lot more emphasis on transferable skills than you'd expect.

There's a hint of a smile, once more.]

I usually wouldn't need to be a weed to stay around. It's inconvenient. But I am interested in this game.

[overlordad]

You too? Even if I don't get my wish, I wanna see how this plays out.

[artificialhighness]

As I've said, this isn't necessary for my wish -- it's just convenient. It's rare to get such a show at home.
