KNIGHT RULEBOOK


THE KNIGHT


On Monday, at 11pm, Xie Lian will receive a message on his PHS.
come to the castle and be discreet. it is important.

Upon receiving this message, Xie Lian will notice that the castle appears closer than usual. Should he head towards it, he will finally be able to reach its entrance. Inside is a large hall with various doors, along with a staircase, but Xie Lian will be able to access only a single door. Once he steps inside, he will find his Leader waiting for him.

After their meeting is over and he leaves the castle, he will no longer be able to reach the castle again.

As the Knight:
Every Monday, the Knight will be given the chance to protect 1-2 participants in two different ways, active only for the current week. They may choose to apply both means of immunity to the same participant, or they can pick a different person for each one. Or, if they so wish, no one at all.

The two forms of protection are active only as long as the Knight is still alive and are as follows:
    1.) They can give one participant immunity from murder on Thursday night. If this participant is marked for death then, their reasons to die will transfer to the Knight who will be targeted instead.

    2.) They can give one participant immunity from execution on Sunday. If this participant is voted for at trial, they will survive their execution. However, they cannot be aware or harbour strong suspicions that they are protected, or else the immunity will fail.

Additional notes:
The Knight will be allowed to ask questions about the on-goings of the game and communicate with their Leader in their weekly meetings. They may receive small hints should they perform well. However, the information received will be up to their Leader's discretion.

[ why's he had to go through it twice in the past like five days???

he's not sure whether to laugh or to cry for a minute there. ]


...Sometimes, I think you and I are too similar for our own good. [ hah... ] But, yes, I think so.

Normally, if I'm injured badly enough, it takes time for me to heal. I do so faster than a normal human, but, I don't have any spiritual energy in my meridians at all so I can't use that to make it go any faster. I'm used to bleeding a lot, but the reopening is a surprise...

[ rip. it's fine. ] Like you said...it should heal eventually, so. It should be fine. Probably.

I think the others have put together a plan to look out for Brother Wolf... And since Brother Fox's team is one of the ones that still needs to hit two, they should hopefully be alright as well - I already know some of the workings of the plans.

[ xie lian smiles, a little. ] We're really communicating with each other, now. The person I choose to save for execution this week - I should be able to save them again, as long as everything goes to plan. That would make for three... and hopefully, with the successful kills on Thursday, we will have reached the goal of bringing back the Removed, and not have to suffer another loss for it.

...I've done the best that I can to try to minimize as much loss as possible.

I want... I really, really want to be successful again this week, Brother Goat. I really do.

...We have to, right? No more chances.

[ it's said with his usual quiet determination. ]

I believe in us too. I think... I don't know how many times we've messed this all up beyond recognition, before, but I've never once in my life let mistakes stop me. Only teach me.

[ and then, a quiet laugh. ] Though, admittedly, it's hard to learn from them when we can't remember them all.

[ as ever, that makes xie lian smile, soft and fond for goat and his convictions, so similar to his own. he reaches across, and holds out his hand out to him, palm up. ]

That's what we have always tried to do. Together, right? All of us.

[ he gives his hand a squeeze, smiling fondly - and then seems to remember something!! ]

Ah! That reminds me. Can I ask you for the last hint, for the dead on our team?

[ ... ]

We lost two in one week?

[ GOAT... YOUR LUCK. ]

[ oof.

xie lian squeezes his hand, immediately, even reaching over to catch it in both of his. very sincerely: ]
It's not your fault, Brother Goat. It's... we should have moved faster, as a team - it took me some time to get acclimated, and I didn't think to ask you for hints until it was too late.

...We're still standing. All of us will be, when this is through. Let's learn from it, and keep looking forward.

[ squeeze!!!! this thread sucks knowing what i know today ]

Just a little longer. That "deadline" is this upcoming weekend, right? To stabilize the path? So, it all has to be taken care of by then.

From what I've heard from the others, we can worry about the 'monster' once that's been taken care of. I wonder if we've ever made it this far, before...

[ haha! ]

Once we gather enough nova, I think the Realm will be able to take care of the monster naturally, so that may not be a concern...

At the very least, it sounds as if previously, we had collected enough nova to return home.

And then we just refused, and started again. [ he smiles, a little, reaching up to scratch his cheek. ]

...The people here... so many of them are really very amazing. It's... it may have seemed like a fool's errand to keep trying until we got it right, but to know that I'm not the only one that wouldn't have stopped until we did is... it's heartening.

Mm. The strength of people's hearts is very impressive—there are many things they can do that even so-called higher beings cannot, I think.

[ haha. that gets a smile out of him. ]

That's definitely true.
