Day 1: Evening

[wizardseason]

Evening: 5:00pm - Midnight

[ IRL Timeframe: March 11th - March 18th, 2019 ]

The first day has come to a close, the only things left to do are get some food and get some rest. Fortunately the residents of Bamborough are hosting a party to congratulate the heroes on their first victory, unfortunately it's running for several hours this evening. There's only so much time for sleep. What kind of balance will your hero try to strike?

Unfortunately for everyone, the evil-allured knights will be treated to a rude wake-up surprise when they finally go to sleep. No matter when they finally set their head down to rest, they all wake up at the same time, in the same place. Only the evil-allured knights will have access to this post, click to see if you've been chosen.

The good-allured knights, meanwhile, are free of a visit tonight with the Princess and the Protector. The two of them, however, are due to have a chat. Questions have to be answered, after all! He's dressed in his usual attire:

He's the same height as Luka with dark skin and vivid blue eyes that match the color of the sky. He has wicked winged white eyeliner to accent his eyes and curly black hair with white tips piled on top of his head, it's a wonder how it stays up there. Surprisingly, or unsurprisingly, he's wearing a pajama robe that looks either blue or silver depending how it's touched or how it moves. Most importantly is that he's got brass knuckles on both his hands, like he's ready to fight. But he's not here to fight, he's here to give a whisper about what comes next.

First Night Event: Bamborough: Everyone invited.

The Weather

• Starry Night.
• 64°F / 18°C
• Quite breezy, all the trees are rustling.

---

Prompts:

• Bamborough Party: To celebrate the defeat of the first monster, a full banquet is being held near the beach in Bamborough. Unlimited food, unlimited drinks, and most importantly of all was a small stockpile of blankets, sheets, pillows, and toiletries to offer any knight who might've forgotten something on the way out here. Naturally, every item is sponsored.


• You're all over Social Media!: Videos were successfully taken of all twelve knights and the princess during the first battle, and now the world is abuzz about what happened! What are they saying about your hero? How did they even get this footage? Or worst of all, how bad are they dissing your camera skills for those that recorded themselves?


• A late night walk: The first day is over, the first monster is dead. How's your character holding up? Do they seek out support from a fellow hero? Do they spend it alone? What kind of night are they having now that it's all real?


• A late night meal: Anyone leaving the Bamborough party late enough will be able to spot that a local late night ramen shop is open for business. If your hero hasn't quite eaten enough, they can drop by for a bite. But be warned, a certain sleepy villain is getting a bite to eat herself. Care to share a ramen bar meal with the enemy?

"Oh!" Joanna brightens up and stops glancing around for signs of trouble. This changes things, even if it doesn't quite explain how Matilda got into her temporary abode. "Then congratulations are in order, if you've already figured some of it out." Presumably not all of it, if Matilda being here was an accident. "What sort of power is it?"

"Well, yeah, how do you think I changed outfits so many times today?" Matilda asks, chiding slightly, but still beaming with pride. And taking no time at all to consider maybe not everyone else noticed her copious wardrobe changes. "I can--Oh, here, I'll show you!" And then pop, she's gone, only just kidding, she's right by Joanna's side now, beaming proudly.

Alas, no, Joanna hadn't paid much attention to anyone's outfits at all. She notices the pop and disappearance, though, and she jumps to discover Matilda's now right next to her - but she's startled into laughing a little even as she backs away a step.

"My goodness, that's quite the power you've gotten there." Not an obvious attacking sort, but clearly helpful - Matilda could escape danger, and transport useful things. Joanna's mind starts racing on the possibilities, and her mouth goes with it.

"Have you tried... Can you bring other people with you, or others' weapons, or any of that? And is it difficult to control where you're going to? If that's even the concept, going to, that seemed rather instantaneous."
