murder manor week zero




saturday


[Saturday begins much like Friday, with no further answers provided, and no means of escape. However, at 3 PM on Saturday, the old grandfather clock in the foyer begins to chime. From the foyer, the ballroom doors stand open, and the room is bright with sunshine. Soft, dreamy music plays from a radio inside.

Inside the ballroom, what seems to be a magnificent party is laid out. There is a buffet table laden with finger foods - vegetables and dips, finger sandwiches, pastries, fruit, and cheeses. Next to the table are glasses filled with wine, champagne, or juice. Most of the room is empty, with room to stand and talk, although towards the windows looking out on the courtyard are six tables with five place settings each, set for a larger meal.

And then there's a seventh table, at the back of the room, on which are thirty small notebooks. Inside, the notebooks appear to be some sort of album, with each page containing a picture of and information about your fellow guests.

After everyone has filed in, the doors shut and lock behind the final guest; the doors to the courtyard close as well. You'll have some time to talk amongst yourself, for it will be another hour of dining before anyone else appears]


This is an open mingle log for the welcome feast. Please tag one another. There will be NPC interaction in the post later in the day.

[IF IT HELPS ANY Kaoru doesn't even know what that is...]

Mm, let us hope. [and then, even though "introductions" could easily be passed up now in favor of flipping to a page, if all of those names are correct:] —Um, please excuse my rudeness. My name is Kaoru Nagumo. [a polite bow!]

[Kaoru looks VAGUELY BAFFLED what is a curtsey what is a Bielarus what is this...]

It's good to meet you, miss Bielarus... [the pronunciation of which is entirely butchered but hey, A for effort.] I only wish it was under better circumstances.

True enough. May God see us through it.
