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.))

There's no point in dancing around it. He's a smart kid.


The Lady said that demons need to burn. Are you doubting Her?

The... demons may need to burn, but if there is a chance Kimblee may be saved, it would be wrong to ignore that.

[ nods ]

We'd just be burning someone to death for no reason. I don't doubt the Lady at all - I don't think this is what She wants.

We can't believe anything the demon says. She told us how he can be saved. This is the right thing to do. This is what- this is what good people would do.

Yeah, okay, let me just listen to a lecture on morals from someone trying to kill everyone.

[ squints at him, sarcasm detectors failing ]

Do you want me to lecture? That sounds really boring.

No.

[really]

It has nothing to do with what the demon says; until we know for sure Kimblee is a lost cause, I can countenance killing him.
