WEEK 0 — MARCH 29, 30

[cartesio]

Week 0

You have been threatened by the Sergeant: if nobody dies before March 31st at noon, you, along with everyone else, will forfeit your lives. The Sergeant pushed everyone away from the Lodge, judging that had been enough interaction with his guests. So what now?

Will you submit to the Sergeant’s demands? Will you resist him and wait to see what happens? He wouldn’t be capable of killing you and everyone else, right?

Only time will tell.

The next day you'll find a newspaper at the motel lounge, telling you about today’s weather forecast with 100% accuracy. Looks like you can expect to find a newspaper every day to find out the weather and any other news about the town. It even includes something branded 'THE SHARK ALERT'. Who could that be directed to?

There's also a copy of yesterday's newspaper. There's nothing about the Sergeant or about your predicament, but there is something about your arrival to the town.

Cartesio is your world for the next four days, better make the most out of your time here.

OOC Note: The current IC:OOC ratio for the days is as follows: The 29th top-level covers Monday and Tuesday, while the 30th top-level is for Wednesday and Thursday.

[The desk crumbles underneath the smashing, turning into splinters and useless pieces. The owner of this desk's going to be so pissed! But the phone stays intact, so at least something's still unbroken. What use would be a phone to you, anyways?

But before it can be shattered into pieces, you can see something in a small screen on the very corner of the phone, and underneath it a redial button. Guess the place it's meant to call appears on the screen when it's on use. If you lift the receiver you get a dial tone.

Press the redial button?]

[Hell yeah.]

[cartesio]

[It takes a moment for the call to go through. Only when the call goes through a word appears on the screen:

'HOME'

Well that could have been a bit more subtle, but hey, maybe it'll go well. Still, it's a bit too late to turn back. A confused voice sounds through the speaker[

Who's calling? How are you even in my office in the first place? I'm calling the police!

[Looks like you won't get many chances for questions. Ask a question carefully, you may get something useful about the setting or the game!]

[This little soldier hears voices. While they don't have anything to ask, they are listening.

Any intel is good intel.]

[anonsoldier3]

We--are the police.

[Quick improvisation.]

The Sergeant sent us to investigate a possible break-in. We wanted to call you to make sure you've not had any problems on...your end, where you are.

[Plz believe them]
