Trying to gather intel. Who is that woman? What's her part in all of this? Has Tara been sticking to the story? Do they have the means to discern lies? Do they have the means to hear our messages? If so, have they done so, and if so, what have they overheard?Nerit wrote:Okay, I've just been informed that Nathan is still on vacation with spotty Internet. So, DeepShadow, what exactly are we trying to accomplish here? With your knowledge rolls?
EDIT: Sorry for my lack of posting, as well. I will also be gone Aug 22-29, up to Tahoe. SO, I am trying to figure out what to have Nuray do before I leave before dawn Friday morning.
Data, data, data! I cannot make bricks without clay.
Based on what I've got so far, Vasili is going to claim that there were three ghosts: the floating sphere, the vamp-thing and Flora. The floating sphere "recruited" us in the tower to go fight the vamp-thing. During that fight, the vamp-thing terrified several of us, which broke the sphere's hold on their minds and made them flee. The rest of us were compelled to finish the fight, during which Richard was bewitched to disappear completely, etc.
So that's Vasili's answer to why some of us were bewitched longer. That and Flora. Of course, V is going to let this all come out naturally rather than rehearsed, answering their questions as best he can while trying to learn more about their own agenda.
Unfortunately, what we know of their agenda so far is playing toward another option that V does not want to think about.....hopefully if we can pull of the above Bluff, there will be not need for anything further. Anyone who is not confident with their Bluffing skills is welcome to just stand there looking haggard.
