Day of the Huntress, Jastatos the 4th

Guests and speakers alike arrived at the Evermore Hollow Hotel during the evening and into the night.

Manager Blodeuyn greeted guests in the Library with a welcoming speech, while the Chambermaid Elaarah ferried guests back and forth to their floors and suites with the aid of the Clockwork Platform Operator Fenthywick.

Some of the speakers expressed concerns about their luggage.

At one point, Blodeuyn had a heated argument with Elaarah when she admitted to accidentally breaking a guest's item. Elaarah was sincerely apologetic and afterwards Blodeuyn said it was really nothing and everything would be fine. She'd be certain the guest was compensated for. No one would say who the guest was.

Various conversations took place throughout the evening.

Feastday, Jastatos the 5th

Guests gathered in the dinning room of the Evermore Hollow Hotel for breakfast between the hours of 9 and 10am. Blodeuyn Mourningveil, Tylagrace Willows, and Fenthywick Grimsbane expressed concern that Elaarah Thistledown hadn't shown. The maid had been schedule to assist with breakfast and not yet shown. Blodueyn went to look for her in the kitchen, Fenthywick checked for her in her rooms, to no avail. Others began to speak of when last they saw her.

Zethes Wraith commented that she'd seen her multiple times that night but that some of it was foggy as she'd taken a draft to block the spirits. The last time she saw her, she was passing at the foot of Zethes bed upset that a mop was replacing her, that something was broken, and kept apologizing.

Lectures took place between 10:30 and 2:30 PM, followed by a lunch that very much surrounded the happenings of Elaarah. An investigation was made into the attic and folks discovered that Fenthywick had a lot to say about a lot of people. Some accusations were leveled at several of the speakers that what happened to Elaarah was the fault and responsibility of one of them. But who?

After the late lunch, most speakers and many of the guests retired to their rooms. Several merchant sessions were attended between 4pm and 8pm.

The ballroom was open to all and dinner was served small plates style. Ceibhfhionn Malficum was having visions throughout the engagement, while Zethes was possessed by the spirit of Elaahra. Both of the metaphysical women ended up retiring early due to the strain.

Into the evening, guests engaged with Caedenmon Howler, Ermias Dunholme, Giedrius Ravencroft, and Thalita Trevil.

Restday, Jastatos the 6th

After an early morning merchant session, folks gathered for brunch in the Dining Room where things really heated up. Some folks have theories on what was happening with the maid, while Ceibhfhionn's visions grew more intense.

Eventually, everyone was led up to the attic to attempt to free the trapped soul of the maid. Much mayhem ensued, Giedrius was bodily dragged from the attic, and with great effort from all involved, Elaarah's soul was freed from its cage.

Blodueyn instructed Fenthywick to remove Giedrius from the hotel.

Ceibhfhionn made it clear that the "society" would find out. Ceibhfhionn says, "While knowledge is excellent, that poor woman was an unwilling sacrifice on the altar of that man's ego."

Many of the speakers have departed.
