Week 4

[bathymetric]

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

Sunday arrives ahead of schedule again, bringing with it the creeping dread that this is just how this is going to go. Welcome to the murdergame cycle.

At least there's another section of the city available to you! This one even has some things to do without you having to make your own fun. Which also means there's more to find about this place.

There's still over 20 of you alive... maybe that's something to celebrate? It could be worse! But... at least one of you is an attempted killer, apparently. Either way, better keep talking if you want regains!



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

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

Sustained? At all hours of the day for multiple days? Come on now.

Disregarding magic, it could be done with a simple hologram too. But I'm not sure why you find it so far fetched if you come from a world where time can be rewritten? Time manipulation is far more resource heavy than illusions, but I think Penelope would have been the best to speak of that.

[ ...man it kind of sucks not having another mage around. ]

I don't find the idea far-fetched. It's possible, but you already said it: it's resource heavy to do what you're describing.

[Occam's Razor, Seo. Besides, she would have known if it was a hologram.]

Programming and perfecting holograms or paying mages to create illusions for several days is incredibly stupid when you could use the technology you already have to kidnap people to just... kidnap people. Even what he offered was just a extension of the technology he already has that can pull people from massively different time periods and put them back where they came from. It's not time travel, in the sense you're talking about. It's dimensional travel.

Past all of that, what makes you think he kept his word? For all we know, they're still captive like the rest of us.

Going by the first week, isn't that incentive enough?

[She snorts. This has nothing to do with Seo and everything to do with her mother was among those hostages.]

If he foolishly kept them, he doesn't still have them.

[They might not have powers, but the hostages seemed way more likely to power of friendship their way out of things.]

My mother does not tolerate that shit.

[buriedstar]

...I see. I'll have to take your word for it.
