¶ You all arrive to the WORKSHOP STUDIO. You discover that your Enlightenment Workshop has been moved to a different room. Off you go.
¶ As more and more people enter the room, there's a bit of confusion. A lot of you seem to be in the wrong place.
¶ Someone enters and apologizes for the mix up. They introduce themself as Light.
¶ They suggest you all play a game, but before you can find out what comes next, everything goes black.
¶ You wake up in a bed, but it's not your bed. Where are you? There are some people alongside you, but they're all just as clueless.
¶ There are some strange watches next to your beds that all ping with an announcement. You're told to head to the OLD PRODUCTION HALL .
¶ Yuze Liu splits off to investigate, ultimately turning up with nothing.
¶ Louise Herrick and London Patterson discover an odd machine, but can't figure out its purpose.
¶ The more observant of you all feel like you're being watched. Something is lurking close by.
¶ A person on the BALCONY reveals herself, and it is none other than Light, the workshop coordinator from earlier.
¶ Rase Winters attacks Light and injures her leg.
¶ Getting fed up with the chaos, Light suddenly announces that you are all now participating in a Death Game. Xe then leaves for medical treatment.
¶ The opening ceremony is complete. What now?

Lore thread -- interaction that included pieces of lore connected to either place, situation or the hosts themselves. May prove important to putting the pieces together later on or else, It's something that is worth of note.

¶ Yuze Liu breaks into HOUSE E and after searching through the rooms, settles there
¶ A few days later, Yuze comes back to the house as normal, but notices that something is notably off
¶ What follows is a series of unnatural occurences like a non-existent dog scratching at the back door or lights flickering for no apparent cause
¶ Only confusion and panic followed as the environement attacked Yuze from all sides, eventually some sort of shadow, a silhouette appearing right beside him
¶ Being at his wits' end, Yuze throws himself out of the window and escapes the house.

¶ Not having learnt to not touch someone else's things, Yuze Liu proceeds to break into LIGHT'S ROOM in the factory next while she isn't there ¶ As they search through her stuff, Light comes back and forces Yuze to hide under the bed
¶ It backfires shortly, her having quickly realized that someone went through her stuff
¶ A struggle later, Light comes out victorious and knocks Yuze unconscious
¶ He wakes up to Light having a call with someone, discussing the first event alongside other things
¶ As she shakes them awake, they end up having a long talk during which Yuze experiences a weird occurence yet again
¶ Yuze is released, the two chat outside of her room and later go their separate ways

JAN 13 2024

¶ Arriving in the OLD PRODUCTION HALL, Light is already waiting for everyone.
¶ A few snarky remarks and explanations later, the host explains what the event is about:.
¶ To win access to the group chat, players need to complete 5 tasks in the groups they're assigned for. This is also the only event they're allowed to opt out If they wish..
¶ PHYSICAL: Matthew Blight, Louise Herrick and London Patterson investigate the pile of furniture in search of items marked with bright paint:.
*¶ London gets injured by a failling chair..
¶ LANGUAGE: Seiko Chowa, Emily Sanmaritano and Timothy Lynch work on a cipher.
¶ MIXED BAG: Yuze Liu, Fenhua Shen and Noah Reuben work on solving the mirror puzzle.
¶ ACTIVITIES: Farrah Howard, Adeline Armonica and Anesthesia create animal-themed masks.
*¶ Light mentions how xey'd be able to provide more materials for Anesthesia If she wishes to make more masks after the event is over, adding how it would take a lot work off xeir shoulders.
¶ ARTS & CRAFTS: Asuka Miki and Erik Gorazeev attempt to work on the plush mascot. However, once Rase shows up, Erik immediately leaves..
¶ People who weren't mentioned, used the opportunity to opt out of the game [inactive/unavailable at this time].
¶ While the groups worked together, Rase Winters attempted to drag Light to participate alongside him and help out with the Arts and Crafts station. She refused, eventually escaping to hide behind the Activities station..
¶ In the end, all tasks were completed and the players earned the GROUP CHAT function on their watches..

28 JAN 2024

¶ The event starts similarly to the previous one, with Light Yoshinaka calling everyone to the PRODUCTION HALL.
¶ Once the chatter dies down a little, the hostess explains the rules of the "trial round" of the game: one's cup is assigned to a person of a different house based on the color of the container. The print on the bottom of the cup will tell what your "drinking" buddy has just consumed.
*¶ It's stated that knocking over, tilting, pouring out the contents of the cup, trying to ‘feel out’ the print from the bottom and anything else of this sort is prohibited, under the threat of elimination. There's also the rule of no trading, no drinking from foreign cups or swapping cups altogether.
*¶ Additionally, as revealed during the next round forcing yourself to throw up will result in consequences, as will ruin the fun as well.
¶ In the meantime, the game is delayed as a result of a sudden spark of conversation in English.
¶ At the signal, everyone drinks the contents of the cups and come to a rather unfortunate realization when Light reveals that more than half of currently present have been poisoned. And so begins the real game - the 'first' round.
*¶ Each table (house) is presented with 4 black cups (antidotes) and 4 white cups (regular herbal tea). Based on the same system as earlier and with the knowledge from the bottom of the cup, you can either tell your drinking buddy to take the antidote to cure the poison in their system or herbal tea to avoid any repercussions of taking the antidote unwarranted.
¶ Seiko Chōwa begins the round, drinking half of the black cup an throwing the rest over their shoulder. Later on, they end up taking another half from a different cup.
¶ Adeline Armonica has a panic attack upon realization that the Death Game, is in fact, a real thing.
*¶ Rase Winters leaves their station to console her, despite Light's protests
¶ At the point of 9 antidotes having been used, the group that was still poisoned could feel the toll the drink was taking on their bodies.
¶ Asuka Miki attempts to lie to [Anon], failing miserably - CON -1. [Anon] is unable to choose whether to listen to Asuka or Rase.
*¶ Light steps in, insisting that they follow the rules.
*¶ Rase decides the only course of action is CW: to shove the antidote down Anon's throat before she can intervene.
*¶ Instead of reacting, she insists he makes the choice immediately to keep the game going before everyone dies.
¶ Yuze Liu refuses to drink the black cup, drinks the white one
¶ Rase tricks Louise Herrick into drinking halves before handing her his own.
¶ The event turns to chaos, hysteria and amidst all that Light announces that there are still three antidotes for the remaining 5 poisoned, hidden in the forest.
¶ Yuze Liu, Farrah Howard, Adeline Armonica, Matthew Blight and Anesthesia run to the woods in sector 1 and manage to find all 3 antidotes.
*¶ Farrah finds a KEY ITEM.
¶ The antidotes are given to Yuze Liu (while still in the forest) leaving Rase Winters and Erik Gorazeev to receive the last two.
¶ Tomoko Kawakami (real name, unrevealed: Tomoe Kawai) dies in the OLD PRODUCTION HALL
*¶ Her body's whereabouts are unknown, but It's implied in the Relationship Chart that Light utilized it
¶ Yosuke Hiromitsu has died off-screen long before the additional antidotes were revealed.
*¶ His body is buried by Rase in the same forest where antidotes were hidden.

Mini session -- interaction that was not planned by admins, but provided a crucial change to the ongoing game

¶ While exploring the shopping district, Adeline stumbles upon a mess in the VASE STORE
¶ Investigating further, she finds the body of Centaurus
¶ There is no evidence pointing to anyone in particular, but the suspicion quickly falls on Light

Lore thread -- interaction that included pieces of lore connected to either place, situation or the hosts themselves. May prove important to putting the pieces together later on or else, It's something that is worth of note.

¶ After passing out post-struggle with Rase, Light is dragged to the forest and tied to a tree as Winters tends to their wounds
¶ Him and Anesthesia get into an argument as a result of conflict of interests
¶ Light eventually wakes up, furious over the way the 'fight' turned out
¶ Some idle chatter later, Light is asked about her mother and her death. She complies and after a moment of hesitation, tells the story in quite the detail much to Ane and Rase's dismay.
¶ Rase wanders off into the forest without a word, leaving armed Anesthesia and Light on their own. The host proceeds to taunt and provoke the girl which lands her an axe in her left shoulder
¶ With Light's pained screams echoing through the forest, he returns and sends Anesthesia away
¶ His focus back on Light, he frees her and drags her up to the crown of the tree. An opening in the leaves show the vast night's sky and the two briefly discuss the constellations
¶ Light then mocks Rase for his empathy, stating there's no point for Rase to look for reasons to care about them
¶ Rase breaks down, stating that it's too late for him not to care about Light. This causes, to her shock, tears to stroll down her face uncontrollably, although Light insists she isn't crying
¶ After Rase tells Light to kill him if she doesn't believe he could help her, the tree branch suddenly breaks underneath them and they both topple on top of Seiko and Fenhua
¶ Seiko reveals to Light that they killed and ate Centaurus, in front of Fenhua and Rase. A verbal and physical fight then breaks out between Rase and Seiko
¶ As the fight continues, suddenly the atmosphere in the forest becomes tense, overwhelming almost where "not even leaves dare make a sound". The enrivonment is enveloped in darkness.
¶ Backing away from the group, Light suddenly disappears in the murkiness of the forest during a small opening where the flashlight stopped working

Mini session -- interaction that was not planned by admins, but provided a crucial change to the ongoing game

¶ On the other hand, Rase Winters sides with Seiko which sparks quite a heated argument
