The search of the gallery room is quick, and reveals nothing. The place is bare of furniture, and although the carpet stains do show the outlines of where occasional furniture once sat. Other than the paintings the room is empty.
The group move towards the double doors at the back of the room and once again repeat the usual act. Jovik presses his ear to the door, turns, shakes his head, and then tries the handle. The door opens inwards slowly. He peeks inside, and then turns to signal that it is clear. The doors open fully to reveal a much more normal looking room.
At last, some natural light! The windows in this room have heavy curtains that have been pulled, but there is enough of a gap to allow at least some of the daylight to filter through.
The furniture in this bedroom, while dusty and unkempt, does not exhibit any major signs of water or mold damage. The one exception is a dark stain on the fine writing desk that sits near the northern window.
You all move inside. Danth moves towards the windows, taking a quick look outside. Those damn birds still crowd the ground outside. Jokad, stands impatiently at the door. One damn blind alley after another!
Kael stands near Jokad, stroking Mal, calming his poor dog who is clearly not enjoying this latest 'adventure' Even now he whines on occasion, or bares his gums and teeth as if at some unseen assailant.
Jovik moves towards the desk.... he feels drawn to it.
No … no! You killed her! She loved you, she was only trying to help you … but you set her on fire and she leapt from the observatory window to her death on the jagged rocks below! [In your mind’s eye, it is Shalelu who you remember killing even though that makes no sense on some level, deep inside you.]
But now that she is gone, you have this one sweet moment of clarity. It’s time to end your miserable, wretched life before the insanity returns…
(Jovik - please make a Will save, DC 15 – if you fail, you walk over to the desk, pick up a letter opener lying there, and try to kill yourself. If anyone tries to stop you, you attack them once with the letter opener (treat as a dagger)).
