They wanted us dead but couldn't kill us, or they didn't want us dead and therefore chose not to kill us. For the first, the only real explanation would be that they were interrupted by someone or something, which, given what we found in the morning, seems unlikely at best. If they didn't actually want to kill us, we were still useful alive. I can only think of one reason why that would be the case... the book. Maybe we had to play a role in whatever magic it unleashed? Maybe they wanted to possess us with some malign spirits to infiltrate Your household, Your Majesty? Did your advisors manage to find out the purpose of the magics that were or are bound into this artifact? I believe, the answer lies there.”“I don't recall seeing any dead people inside the pavillons. Is that right? That would at least give us some hint as to who was killed and who wasn't. Basically, everyone who was on the stage drinking the wine during the festivities, is still alive? Not counting Miranda here.”</blockquote>
