[Color=CD7F32]"Duely noted."[/color] He replies with a tone of mixed annoyance and boredom. 

Mortimer stands up from his seat rasing his chalice to those in attendance. [Color=CD7F32]"Please excuse me. I believe there are some final preparations that I need to attend to. Should you need me for anything just simply ask one of the servents. As I stated before should any of you wish to negotiate some prize for you participation and survival of our little game, negotiations for such can be done now or at the end of it. I bid you all a restful night."[/color] He lifts his drink a bit higher before draining the contents and setting it back on the table.

The other masked figures seems to quietly talkn among themselves, some even starting to make more obvious stares and looks at the newer group. Should anyone of the unmasked people engage with them, they keep pleasant and answer questions to some degree.

Once everyone is done eating and drinking their fill, the masked figures slowly filter out of the room. You eventually find your way back to your room for the evening, resting however well you might.

Sunlight, or at least it appears to be, slowly fills the room waking you from your sleep. After preparing yourself and leave the room you find yourself walking into a dense forest rather than the hallway from the night before. Mortimer stands in a clearing near a fallen oak tree patiently waiting for everyone to arrive.

[Hider=OOC]Should you want to take to a particular npc we can do it through PMs for the post, all posts between PCs can be post as normal or as a collaboration post as you the players see fit. I'll give everyone else some time before we progress onward.[/hider]
