Day 1 Night

[12npcs]

[ Over the murmur of conversations, explorations and violent attempts at escape, there comes a sound tick tick tick tick tick.............. CLICK.... The sky above snaps across the dome from blue to black... and everything goes dark.

A glow comes from the front door of each of the inns and one by one, you can see street lanterns begin to light up steadily past each of the gates.

The only flickering, organic light comes from above in the tower, spluttering high, high above everyone, through the slats of the closed shutters. After a moment, it's gone. ]

Not of a necessity - but occasionally by coincidence.

Are you an older brother? Is this what this is?

[direstnews]

The younger.

[freckledninja]

Just in spirit then.

[direstnews]

I'll not have you slandering my good name.

[freckledninja]

[laughs]

My bad, my bad!

[direstnews]

Forgiven. But only just.

[freckledninja]

[direstnews]

What was it your brother did while you played make-believe?

[freckledninja]

He was captain.

[direstnews]

In the game?

[freckledninja]

He was the worst captain!

[direstnews]

[freckledninja]

[direstnews]
