"Excellent, so many takers... now then... The festivities shall begin upon the dawn of the coming morning... Get some sleep while you can and then enjoy this fleeting dreamworld..." Nodding to himself, the apparition then disappeared by absorbing his own darkness into a core, which then winked out with a soft pop. No trace of the Viewer was left, and the group was left to their own devices for the moment. The clock on the wall told that the time was a quarter past two in the morning. Three and a half hours before the newcomers would experience their first challenge.

Shiroe looked about for a moment before lowering his hands and heaving a weary sigh. That was so tense for him... His heart was beating so fast that it was almost to the point of becoming palpitations. Letting the cool air back into his body, he felt himself losing the heat of nervousness and become stable once again. "So...To recap... We are all stuck here for 21 days, wish or not... We can collect anything and it will stay with us... And if we survive until someone completes the last trial, then we can get a wish and/or go home..." Shiroe began muttering to himself, focusing on the main points. "Three weeks then..." 

After a bit more mumbling, the mage then decided that to play this game, he should be at the peak of his game. Using his staff as an impromptu hook, he grabbed the rings of keys from the front desk and brought it jingling to the counter. "I guess we could either rest in the accomadations for now or use the time to gather supplies. Without knowing what this Trial is going to entail, our best bet might be to take the first one and figure out its pattern. And it was rather kind of the Viewer to give us shelter for the night..." Shiroe adjusted his glasses and grabbed a room key meaningfully. "Much better than roughing it, I believe."
