Day 03

[Last night, the Night Watch heard sounds of movement around Kimblee and McDougal's cottage just before daybreak. If they checked inside, they would find McDougal appropriately asleep, but Kimblee missing.]

[As for everyone else, dawn brings the morning announcements from the Shimmering Lady:]

Takano Miyo and Mitsuko, two Sinners, are lost to dreams.
Shuu Tsukiyama, an ordinary villager, is lost to dreams.
Isaac McDougal, an Incubus, is lost to dreams. Please bring me his body that it may be purified, and we shall begin the mourning process for the man he once...

...Wait. Kimblee is McDougal's Soulmate. Why is he awake?

He shouldn't be awake. He lost fair and square. He's breaking the rules. He is a blasphemer and a demon and ugly. Bring him here. Bring him.

Bring him to me.

So. Wow. Okay. Here's a thing I did not in the least expect to occur this early in the game, because clearly I am a fool.. So we'll be playing this by ear, and day 3 might end up taking more than the scheduled 24 hours (I'll watch it closely and keep everyone updated), but no matter what crazy-ass thing Kimblee decides to do with this, it shouldn't be a gamebreaker. Shimmer won't let anybody die who hasn't already been officially taken out of the game. Unless they explicitly ask me for that to happen, I guess!

Whatever happens, bear in mind the brainwashing rule-of-thumb: You can doubt the words of the Lady/Gentleman, but unless explicitly told otherwise, you can't break out of the world view provided for you, especially if spoken to directly.

If you'd like to consult with the Lady, she's here.
If you'd like to confront Kimblee, that's here.
And if you just wanna run around being useless and angry, come join Cassius over here.))

[Simon has accompanied Bobby in and is hanging back with him.]

After Connor comes out and gives his report...

...Hmm. What do you think, Prosecutor Blackquill?

That it is folly to show him such consideration. Would you listen to the hissings of a snake wriggling in a trap?

So what do you think we should do? It sounds like most people want to believe him or at least give him a chance anyway.

It's natural to want what he's saying to be true, but simply wanting something will not make it so. Even if it happens to be decided that he should be spared, we cannot let our guards down.

...He and his partner were the ones blocking my visions. I didn't have one last night, either. I'll be able to investigate that way again tonight if he can't interfere.

I don't believe him for a moment; he's been lying constantly and he probably wouldn't stop now.

I guess we can keep an eye on him if we detain him and can confirm if he's powerless now, at the very least... Mr. Yao is on night watch tonight, and I believe in him.

That is a stopgap solution at best. Imprisoned beasts only have all the more time to sharpen their claws.
