week 4 - trial

week four trial



[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go, as long as you are accompanied by a partner.

The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.

At 7 PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. Players will be escorted by the Hostess to the ballroom, where dinner and wine will be served until 10 PM, at which point players will be required to return to their wings in groups with their wingmates and will be locked in their bedrooms until 8:30 AM the following morning.]

If you ask me, someone shall go looking for it anyway if you hold it up so temptingly. Now that its existence is known, it is counterintuitive to hide it.

I think I agree with Miss Nevermind. As long as most people didn't know it existed at all keeping it secret was reasonable, but if everyone knows where it is and just not how to get into it, we'll always be wondering if someone found it. It could also be used by a culprit to try to obscure if they had the secret passageway map or not.

Yes, thank you. At this rate it would be much more trouble than it is worth to hide it.
