Week 3
Week 3
Sunday - Thursday
The beginning of the third week starts like the rest, even with the loss of three of your fellow warriors: Chiaki, Hei, and Senhime. Despite your best hopes, it doesn't seem like the trend of murders is going to change: though at least there is some relief to be had from the trial's somewhat unexpected conclusion. The mood in the group is undoubtedly different, but perhaps this experience has made you all stronger— at least one could hope.
In the end, what else can you do but move on?
Like last week, it seems another pattern has established itself: with new areas of the castle for you to explore. Who knows, maybe this week you'll discover something else worthwhile in its depths. Or you can simply focus on surviving— after the past week, surely no one can blame you. Whatever choices you make this week are ultimately yours and yours alone, for better or for worse.

That would require a miracle even the cards can't pull off!

[She gives the cards a good shuffle before she takes the top three cards, laying them out in a horizontal line. The first card she flips is the Four of Swords.]
In the past, you were embroiled in conflict, but then found yourself with a short reprieve. The battle continues on, but you were able to recuperate in order to face forward once more.
[And so she moves onto the second card - Six of Wands.]
My, it seems in the present you actually came out victorious. This card shows triumph - but don't get complacent. It marks achievement, but not endings.
[Leaving the final card - the future. She flips over the Five of Wands.]
Your future is a competition. Everyone's vying for the top, but you in particular have a good chance at success. Careful, though - getting too involved in the competition might just drag you down. Don't become obsessed with it; just perform at your best.
[...Aaaand she peers up at him. Was that even accurate?]

I think your cards have some weird definition of "victorious". Being here definitely isn't victory and what happened back home before coming here isn't victory. Seriously, I don't think you could even imagine walking in a city that just hours before had been full of people and now is covered in ice and statues that used to be people. And once I get home, I still gotta make sure my friends are all right, especially the kids who are mortal like me and we only brought them along because we thought they'd be safer with a bunch of immortals.

[She seems to ponder this over for a moment, before:]
Maybe the cards are broken?
[...She never claimed to be an expert at this.]

Or it just has a weird definition of victorious. I mean, maybe it thinks me not being dead is enough?

Destroy entire cities?

That... doesn't sound very victorious, no.
[Goodness.]
Just what was going on there...?
