Week 2

[bathymetric]

Good morning, New Rapture. A new day is dawning.

It's now been a week since you were all captured. Perhaps you've already settled in. Perhaps you're already confident that you'll make it out of New Rapture alive. How serious about this could Mayor Fontaine possibly be, really?

While there still may not be much to do in your little hotel bubble, you've at least been granted a little more now - some kind of mysterious room and a sizeable library of all things. And in all the places you've looked so far, you've found valuable information, and even learned some of the story of New Rapture along the way.

Make sure to keep talking to the others! You want to keep those regain coins flowing, don't you?




SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to the second week of Unknown Seas Round 3! Please make sure to mark any investigation toplevels accordingly, and you can reach either Mayor Fontaine or Eleanor for conversations! ]

That's what I've been curious about as well... But somehow, I doubt we're going to be able to pry any more answers out of him.

[Particularly now that he's mad we haven't done a murder.]

With that said, I do agree with you. If fairness were the goal, he likely should have chosen the participants.

[inaclearing]

I'm sure it isn't, really. Whatever he wants out of this requires most of us dying - if it's unfair, that's probably just easier.

[He still doesn't have any strong theories on what the goal is. But, you know, it seems like the desired outcome is "someone gets away with murder and everybody but them dies".]

[onemillion]

I do wish we had a better idea of what exactly his goal is here. As it stands, I can't even hazard a guess.

[Which is very frustrating!! We could likely work backwards and figure out a good amount about this place if we knew that much, but no, of course not.]

I suppose there's no point in focusing on it for now, though.

[inaclearing]

We do have a lot more immediate concerns.

[Even if Brett suspects those would be a lot easier to deal with, too, if they knew more about the Mayor's motivations.]

...I don't think...this isn't going to end well. [He's tried to be optimistic, but with hostages on the line? That changes everything.]

[onemillion]

...It isn't.

[Rossiu has always been a realist, and there's no way to look at a situation like this and cling to optimism.]

But we will do everything we can to keep moving. We have to. We cannot allow the Mayor to break us.

[It's far easier said than done, though.]
