"Sounds like fun! Come on, let's go get everyone!" I say, and run off to find the others.

Willow: "These were the first to fall to the Red Army incursion," the orb proclaims. "Fifty-two have perished within the last twenty-four hours. It is now eight-thirty A.M. on the first day of the fifth month of the one thousand three hundred thirteenth year of the Agreed Collective Calendar of the Earthly Kingdoms." The time is the only thing that clicks with the real-world you, but the calendar clicks with the in-game you: May 1, 1313 ACC. You know that the date and time matches up, except the year in the real world is 2132. You have spent twenty-five hours and thirty minutes in the game. You have about twenty-nine days before those that want to get out can no longer do so.
Apollo: It only takes a few seconds to get all of the glass into the lopsided bucket.
Leina: The big pieces don't take long to pick up.
Nyx: On the bottom floor of the tower, you find one such closet. Inside, you find three brooms.
Sand-Claw: Irene does not follow you. When you get back to the main hall, you do not find anyone there. Would you like to go the grounds, west hall, or east hall?

I pick one up and look for a dust pan.

Once I have the big pieces gently in my hand, I look about to see if there's any sort of recepticle I can put them in...

"I think I know where to find them..." I say, walking out of the shower room towards Leina's room, still dripping wet from the shower. This is probably where Leina ran off to, and, if my analysis of Nyx's behavior patterns are right, she's probably there too...

Nyx: You find one in the back of the closet.
Leina: You don't find anything.
Layla: When you get to the tower, you find Nyx on the first floor, looking through a janitorial closet. Irene and Xiao follow you.

"Hm... I may as well help the others and take care of those shards that fell to the ground." I mutter to myself and then go downstairs and outside to the area beneath my window.

I sigh as I realize there's nowhere to put the shards and decide to look out the window to see if there's an available open space to drop them...

Thinking over what the orb had told her, Willows hand began to shake slightly. Sleep was taking over, she dug her nails into the palm of her hand wincing slightly as she drew blood, but the pain was good, it kept her awake for now, "I have heard some rather unsettling news, perhaps you could confirm it for me, if we were to die in the game, do we, truly, die?" She hadn't trusted the man before, for reasons she couldn't explain. and the strange shadow she had scene still nagged at the back of her mind, what was it, really?

I search the areas in the order of the grounds, the west, then the east.

I pick up the dust pan and close the closet door. I ignore Layla's presence as I make my way up to Leina's room. I knock on Leina's door and then open the door slowly. "I'm back."

Apollo: There's not much that you can see. However, there are some decent-sized shards here and there.
Leina: There would be...if Apollo wasn't in the way!
Willow: "Affirmative," the orb declares. "Death is permanent. These people have been dead for twenty-five hours forty-seven minutes. The standard time frame for resurrection is five minutes after death. No one survived the Red Army assault."
Sand-Claw: No one in any of these areas. Perhaps they are in the towers, or the Leader's Manor?
Nyx: Leina is looking out the window.

I simply shadow Nyx for the time being, busy plotting nerafious ways to cause hers and Leina's great downfall... and by great downfall, I mean pull them into a bout of complete nonsense because something needs to be done to counter balence all of the seriousness.

I put all the glass shards I can find into the bucket and then go find a proper place to dispose of them.

I grumble softly as I see Apollo in the way, but then I think I see something in his hands... "Hey Apollo!" I call down to him. "Do you have anything that glass could go into?"
