WEEK 1.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 1 Now that you've had a chance to yell at the Wordsmith, one thing is very clear. He wasn't lying. There's no escape from this place. You can explore all you like, but there aren't any ways to leave. It seems like there isn't much to do but settle in and get to know your fellow Apprentices. You're free to go wherever you'd like for the most part, but come 10PM the doors to the kitchen and the mail room will shut and lock and nothing you can do will get them to open. While you might be tempted to sleep in, you'll find that the clock in the foyer goes off every morning at 7AM and again in the evenings at 10PM without fail. You'll be able to hear it no matter where you are; it seems it's being broadcast over the PA system. You're welcome to go back to sleep after you hear it, but surely you don't want to spend the whole day in bed? (Unless you were out exploring all last night. In which case, go back to bed, damn.) APPRENTICES REMAINING: 30

MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

Afternoon Kitchen

[matchbreaker]

[ Gurl that is a lot of candies.

Why are there that many candies on the floor. Elda, a little bit groggy, makes her way into the kitchen while yawning (despite it being afternoon) and... ]

So what're you doing, making a candy demon all summoned up?

[ravagers]

[ She giggles lightly, looking up at Elda from where she's kneeling. ]

D'you think that'd help us get out of this place?

[matchbreaker]

Maybe! You'd have to put them in a pentagram shape though.

[ravagers]

Hm? Why's that?

[matchbreaker]

You know, that upside down star thing people figure gets them closer to Satan?

[ Elda why. Also that's only when it's inverted ]

[ravagers]

Hm... not really, nope. But I'll take your word for it!

[matchbreaker]

Well, I could help, if you want.

[ CANDY DEMONS...

Man, she really is bored ]

[ravagers]

Sure! Not much else to do here.

[ So is Satan an eidolon or what ]

[matchbreaker]

Good, scooch over!

[ A nod, and she gets up into a crouch on the ground to try and start arranging these candies into a wide five pointed start with a circle around it. Both doing it herself and instructing Vanille as well. ]

[ravagers]

Gotcha! Scooching right away.

[ Vanille listens intently, and a few moments later... ]

So what kind of creature is this Satan, anyway?

[matchbreaker]

He's the church's ultimate evil boogieman.

[ Said casually as she's arranging these / trying to direct Vanille in helping her. Without words. ]

He drags all the sinners to hell.

[ravagers]

[ ... this is fine. ]

You mean... all the sinners?

[matchbreaker]

That's what they say, anyway.

[ Casually, still. ]

[ravagers]

[ Oh. ]

Oh.

[ AHEM. ]

Well, I hope no one here gets taken by him!

[matchbreaker]

Don't worry! Even if he's real he probably doesn't work quite like that. Anyway you'd probably need to use your blood to summon him, the candy'd just get some sort of evil clown maybe.

[ravagers]

[ ... how can you talk so calmly about this, Elda... ]

Are clowns bad?

[matchbreaker]

Well I think they're funny! Do you not know what they are?

[Okay, the star is moving in towards done! Unless Vanille stopped! ]

[ravagers]

[ Nope, she's still going! ]

Nope! We don't have those back home.

[matchbreaker]

Well normally they're people who dress up in weird makeup and try to make people laugh, but sometimes you hear stories about them kidnapping kids and maybe eating them or something.

[ravagers]

[ Wha... ]

Why would anyone do anything like that?!

[matchbreaker]

Dunno!

[ SHE'S STILL CASUAL ABOUT THS AS SHE'S MAKING THE CIRCLE ]

Humans do a lot of weird things.

[ravagers]

That's more than just weird, though... That's completely terrible!

[matchbreaker]

So's war and all the other stuff though.

[ #humansaretherealdevils

... she's an old lady her hashtags suck ok ]

[ravagers]

Yeah... You've got a point.

[ .... ANYWAY, LET'S GET BACK TO SUMMONING CANDY DEMONS. ]

Sooo is this circle thing almost done?

[matchbreaker]

Looks like it.

[ Does it look good? she stands, to look at it from above!

Hmmm.. ]

Okay, looks pretty good. Now we just need some sacrifice or magic spell!
