One Mad Week

Little happens immediately after Janessa sets the eight portal stones in a circle and initiates a nightlight outside Rosalind's palace window. But then, strange events commence.

While Hengist DeLacy is sleeping, his servants dress up as basset hounds, decorate his study with shredded carrots, and are arrested by the local constable for the crime of handling mackeral in a mistrustful manner.

Raine Gildre is seen digging a very deep hole. Lumara Angelo has become obsessed with balancing rocks upon each other. In Sabadell, Mike is arrested by the local constable for failing to wash his lord's sheep.

While Jezerah Wirrander is sleeping, her servents dress up as rabbits, cover the floorways of her hallway with fermented lettuce, and are discovered by her lordship in the gameroom still dressed as rabbits, but also slathered in mustard, sleeping on top of each other. A message is scrawled in mustard upon the wall, "Everyone was riugrooding, so we decided to voppen".

Xavier Carson has become obsessed with collecting doll hair. Alyssa Fontaine is seen eating a bowl of sawdust and coffee.

Throughout the night, vandals scribble graffiti across the city: "Vote Monster!", "Arrows Strangely Deserve What They Get", "Never Tolerate Riugrooding", "Westgard Deserves Better!", "Voppen until Jaursuvly", "Rosie! Rosie! Rosie! Out! Out! Out!"

Iulia Baceolus is seen conducting an orchestra of flowers. Wilhem Von Lunkhofen has become obsessed with touching treebark. In Gelene Outskirts, Bran is arrested by the local constable for playing games at an illegal hour.

While Korov Rousseau is sleeping, his servants dress up as lords using his wardrobe, decorate his dining room with dog hair, and are arrested by the local constable for the crime of impersonating his lordship's family.

Sparticus II Bathgate has become obsessed with following Honza Gabhann everywhere he goes. Lillith Greyson is seen challenging her peers to a game of Kuugball.

While Lukan Fuor is sleeping, his servants dress up as sturgeon, decorate his ballroom with boulders that scrape the hardwood floors from being drug indoors, and are arrested by the local constable for the crime of disturbing the peace when shouting , "Arrows strangely deserve what they get," from the rooftop of the mill an hour past midnight.

Selena Chenier is seen alone in a field gesticulating wildly and babbling nonsense. Zlatko Mersault has become obsessed with cabinet-making. In Gelene Outskirts, the local constable attempts to arrest Salem for sleeping in public, but a local nun protects him on account of Salem being unconscious from a wound. After rescuing Salem from the constable, the nun provides him sanctuary and healing within the convent.

In the morning, there is a half-eaten doughnut and a note waiting outside everyone's door or tentflap. The note reads, "Vote for Monster as new Aeon of Westgard!" Apparently an election brochure detailing Monster's campaign promises and comparative advantages over Aeon Rosalind. And a half-eaten bribe?

For the next week Westgard continues to suffer from a plague of madness. Confusion abounds whether an election is occurring for Rosalind's throne, and if so, how a Monster is an eligible candidate. Westgard's Judiciary insists upon a fanatical devotion to the strict enforcement of outdated laws ranging from designated game-playing hours to sheep cleanliness. The Virtues are twisted into Vices.

As sanity is restored after the week of madness passes, it will be noticed that Westgard's monsters have been marching and swimming southeastward, as if following Janessa back to Luria Nova.
