Well, everyone has now voted making for our shortest day ever. The votes look like:
KroxigorsFTW: 3 votes
hellbreaker: 1 vote
A quick decision an obvious sign that the nobles are getting decidedly worried.
KroxigorsFTW is dragged kicking and screaming to the gallows and hung. All that is left to do is wait and hope that the killings stop proving the guilt of KroxigorsFTW.
People still alive:
hellbreaker
Eternity_Warden
The Hunted
I already know who the target will be tonight, since there is only 1 innocent left. In his very restless sleep, a dark figure sneaks into
hellbreaker's room and silently approaches, knife in hand.
'Wake up,' says The Hunted, 'it is time to kill the last one and make our escape'.
As dawn approaches, the servants find the castle deathly silent, it is empty aside from the cold body of
Eternity_Warden, throat slit and blood spilt all over his bed.
Congratulations to the two assassins! You managed to get absolutely everyone and almost never came under any suspicion.
For what its worth, I found it quite difficult to come up with clues that would be there but not too obvious. A lot of it comes down to the discussions, and a bit of luck. Plus I was hoping to give clues based on how people described and grew their characters, but not a lot of that really happened either. I did throw out a couple of clues though, the last of which I very much hesitated about since I thought it would give him away.
only to be hunted down in the gardens and stunned from afar by an arrow then finished off in close quarters
Bowls are pushed aside as a sour taste in everyone's mouth leaves their appetites thoroughly destroyed. 'Bloody hell, I thought this was over' mutters one of the guards
Well, I hope you enjoyed this very long and drawn out game. I wasn't going to run another given how slow this one went, but it does seem there are a few more people interested so I will consider it if the interest is there.
