week one: investigation

[mygod]

Week 1

---

investigation

---

Suddenly, consciousness sinks its icy grip into you and yanks you into the realm of wakefulness.

Disoriented, you rise to your feet. Put one in front of the other. Who were you with last night? Are they all with you? Do they still take breath? You can’t tell. Not yet, at least. Instead, you stumble into the next area, and perhaps you’re not alone, but there is one thing that you are innately aware of: something is wrong. So very, very wrong.

The sky has a faint discoloration to it, and if you peer too closely, you might notice how the air seems to be thrumming, pulsing with magic. You can almost taste it—and if you aren’t careful, may choke on it. It’s best to focus on the task at hand in front of you first.

Welcome, Sacrifices, to your weekly investigation!

We will be posting top-levels for searchable locations—one set at 6PM EST and another set at 7PM EST. Each location will contain evidence to find, though it's up to your efforts as to whether you find all of it. Please coordinate investigation groups on Discord, as we ask that group threads consist of no more than 2-3 characters. We will stop tagging each top-level two hours after it went up, i.e. at 8PM and 9PM EST, respectively. Don't worry if you don't find everything! Characters will get the chance to revisit locations tomorrow at trial.

At 9PM EST, an announcement will go up, confirming the victim(s). If you have any questions at any time, please let the mods know by pinging us on Discord!

[he stares at the Blood. is it like sprinkled on the assortment of stuff, or is there like a puddle of it staining some of the pile... can he figure out where it's coming from in this pile if he starts moving things,]

....I see blood. Nona, can you check if there's any at the top?

[segnale]

[nona nods from where she's holding the ukulele.]

Got it. Should we, um... dismantle this pile after?

[but peers at this pile from the top... can she see any blood from her position that lavi wouldn't]

[drymonster]

[ okay, and there's nothing on the floor in that space if he peers down there, that whoever may have theoretically been in there could have dropped or anything? he will take pictures of this setup too!! is there any damage or any marks or anything on any of these benches? ]

Huh?

[ hhhh FINE he will GO to the PILE and i guess take better pictures... walk around it... get good angles and see if anything stands out even though i assume he might not be able to think very hard about it until tomorrow ]

[mygod]

[ the blood that lavi sees looks more like it landed on the pile, so it's not a puddle or anything.

from nona's position, she can't see any blood that he can't. it looks clear up here!!!

the ground around the benches are a little scuffed, sort of like what a floor would look like if something heavy was dragged. there's nothing down in the space though. when totty walks around the altar, he can notice something bloody sticking out of one of the chests.

edits this quickly just to say ukelele ]

[bookpapers]

[can he tell at what height of the pile the blood landed on.... towards the top where nona is or the middle or towards the bottom???

he will also carefully let Nona back down on the ground,]

Might as well.

[he'll start trying to dismantle the pile unless totty tells him to stop,]

[segnale]

[she will gently set the ukulele down and take a look over it, but if she cannot enter her mind palace today she will help lavi with dismantling the pile.]

[drymonster]

[ oh fucking christ. can he tell whose chest this is with the bloody thing sticking out of it? is it his? does he have to just suffer and wonder until tomorrow? ]

W-wait, there's something over here...

[ and i guess THE MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION, what does this bloody thing look like. ]

[mygod]

[ the blood is on the lower middle of the pile, not high. if nona had not been so enticed by the ukulele, she likely would have seen it when she was originally looking at this pile, but the ukulele overpowered any other investigation

she cannot enter her mind palace other than being able to tell it's the ukulele that is normally in here

the chest does not belong to him, and he can tell since he'd be able to recognize his own! it's hard to tell who it is, because all of them are in this pile including totty's, but there is a bloody sleeve sticking out of it. ]

[bookpapers]

[nona loves ukeleles so much....

anyway Lavi will pause when Totty calls out and head over to look at.... whatever the fuck this is]

What...

[wait he knows what the fck this is]

[segnale]

Oh no...

[HEADING OVER TO LOOK TOO]

[drymonster]

[ thank god. but also HOW BIG ARE THESE CHESTS...

ok well it's 7:59 so I GUESS HE'S TAKING A QUICK PIC AND TRYING TO TAKE OUT WHATEVER'S IN THIS CHEST...??? LAVI HELP ]

[bookpapers]

[HE WILL HELP TOTTY AHHHH]

[mygod]

[ they open the chest and...

it is actually full of a bunch of stuff that you'll have to see tomorrow but i'll give you one thing: enjoy some leeches swimming in a pot. cute.

ukulele.

block 1 over leave. ]
