    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all.

Having lost a pillar of their community, the people of Mondeville were out for blood. Some of the Arcanite elders began to suspect each other of being involved in the murder, and several accusations were made despite a lack of any real evidence. By nightfall, the town’s frenzied calls for justice led to a mob seizing Trebek, who they believed to be instrumental in the previous night’s killing.

---

As the flames licked the dark sky above, embers danced among the stars. The Arcanites bowed their heads in silent mourning.

“Bit disrespectful, if you ask me,” grumbled Merato “but two birds with one stone, as they say…”

The sound of screaming subsided until naught could be heard but the roar of the flames.

Trebek is dead. He was mafia.

Night One has started. Please send in your night actions. Day Two will begin July 7th at 4PM EDT (UTC-4:00).

Part Two: Through the Ashes

"Father Seshas... Your breakfast is ready." The attendant girl announced as she approached the transept. "Salted eggs and porridge... Kyla made a little extra for you today. I know you're going to l-"

The tray fell to the ground with a clatter and landed on the pool of blood. With a trembling hand, the girl reached toward the door of the confessional. "Father Seshas... are you..."

The girl let out a scream as the priest's body slumped to the floor.

"An attack on our church?" Vicar Merato fumed. The small council watched the man in silence in the low light of the vicar's chambers.

A bald man with a gaunt face spoke. "I say there's no point in hiding it. A man bled to death in the streets this morning. The people are already demanding justice."

"So the murder yesterday was not an isolated incident," said a bespectacled man with bony features and a shock of dark hair. The council began to murmur amongst themselves.

"Whatever group is doing this clearly isn't going to stop just because we killed one of their own," the vicar remarked. "We have to remove this threat root and stem before any more innocent lives are lost."

"Just what could these killers possibly want?" asked the man with glasses.

"Power," replied the bald man. "In the end, it's always about power."

The council sat in silence as the lamp light flickered across their faces. A few moments passed before a tall, auburn-haired woman spoke. "I think I've heard enough. We will hold a Divine Tribunal in the town square, just as our ancestors did. Someone must be made to answer for these crimes."

"Agreed, Lady Myranda." the Vicar rose from his chair. "Gather the people at once. All of you are dismissed."

As the council shuffled out, Vicar Merato was staring into the lamp's dim flames. "Dodley..." the man called out.

"Yes, Vicar Merato?" the scrawny attendant was standing in one corner of the room with his back against the wall.

"Refill my wine, and... go home for now. Tell your parents to come to the town square." the Vicar requested.

The flame petered out and left a trickle of smoke.

Seshas is dead. They were not mafia.
kokorico is dead. E was not mafia.

You may now post and discuss who to lynch today. Day Two will end July 9th at 4PM EDT (UTC-4:00).
