As the smoke from the impact cleared it could be seen that the sorcerer was still standing, likely due to his lack of personal relation to the mystery.
In most other circumstances one would suffer quite the grave wounds as a result of such an attack.
His cape however, was ruined, though he didn’t seem to mind, beaming ear to ear despite it and his defeat.
“That was a truly excellent performance everyone! You moved me to tears with how deftly you wielded your theories and chased down the truth!”
“In your pockets you should all find an envelope.” he declared as he snapped his fingers.
“Within it is the truth of this game.”
The Envelope
The narrator wished to die and take his younger sister with him. By chance he discovered the killer’s identity and anonymously informed them of how his parents would be out for quite the duration that night.
However, the human heart is not so simple, especially one caught in the throes of self annihilatory feelings, and so the narrator of our tale began to doubt himself. Pushed to his emotional limit he began to believe that he had magical powers as his eyes wandered over the key to his sister’s treasured dollhouse.
In a fit of self hatred he crushed it in his hands and then followed by knocking down the now useless item, forgetting about it, but unable to forget about the key due to the pain from crushing it that he could still feel.
All of the reds prior to this event were speaking of the dollhouse when they said “this house”, but now with it knocked out of his vision and forgotten as a defense mechanism the reds after this event speak of the house they are in when they say “this house”.
As a result of this trick of the reds the door was still unlocked allowing the killer to enter as he lost track of time. He was snapped out of his trance by some kind of sound related to his sister’s murder, resulting in the red that he then spoke.
He thought back to the key looking over to the patch of darkness it had likely flew towards when the hand holding it struck against the dollhouse. He saw a doll on the ground there, something he briefly mistook for a person before realizing it was just something relatively pointless.
As he died the narrator found it funny that his strength has been reduced to such a level that he is incapable of even breaking a toy key, and so he wrote in on the floor in his blood, likely fancying himself for some kind of witch posing a great riddle.
He tossed a wrapped package over to one of the players, @Karifean to be precise.
“Till next time, Voyagers!”
And then with a clap of his hands the tale vanished from beneath them and the large machine began to power down.
