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. ]

Fictional counterpart. I've been too many places in the world to assume an accent necessarily goes with place of residence.

[ an approving nod at that ]

An excellent observation. I assure you that I'm from the modern era, however, and that I neither smoke nor commonly wear any sort of hat. And you may have met my associate Ms. Watson already.
