Chapter 38 by Zingiber Zingiber

What's your next Move?

With Selina's FAVOR, try and fix the spy mirror. On a 7-9, choose one.

"Stay in twilight, Golondrina," Selina Lune says. "It is a risk to ride with you, and it cannot last long, but it is worth taking."

You feel like you're sleepwalking as Selina Lune shares your presence, looking through your eyes, hearing through your ears. Her powerful magics flow through your aura. You arrive at the Housemaster's office for your arranged study time and discover that his desk has been rearranged, and several books moved round that block the mirror's view of the window, keeping it out of moonlight.

When the Housemaster excuses himself for a call of nature, you let Selina Lune guide you in placing the tiny mirror that will let her watch her rival, your patron, the Housemaster of Leontes, Fergus Firetail.


⚂⚂ + 2 = 8.

On a 7-9, you ACHIEVE YOUR GOAL. Cross it off and choose one:

  • You do a rushed, mediocre, or sloppy job. Describe the plot consequences.
  • (alternative for this scene) Fergus catches you looking suspicious. Roll to GET OUT OF TROUBLE.
  • Through your action, someone else doesn't get what they want. Treat as a 10+, but gain an ENEMY.
  • You needed help. Treat as a 10+, but expend a FAVOR or owe your helper a FAVOR (a new GOAL).
  • You overextended yourself, got hurt, or got embarrassed. Treat as a 10+, but take a CONSEQUENCE.

Choose one and describe the consequences.
