"My actions have led to deaths, and the fall of my squabbling brothers. As for whether I killed someone directly... there were times I was close. The king's life if considerably more valuable than my own, so I would kill if anyone were to threaten him."

"I see. Thank you for your honesty. I have, as well. Though usually in a more direct sense. The battlefield doesn't leave room for hesitation."

She wears a complicated look on her face.

"Not to mention the people who get in the way of a goal. Well intentioned people who are in the way. Or, in the wrong place at the wrong time."

"They... don't deserve to die. And yet, they must. I think the last one I killed was. A girl, much younger than me. I don't even remember her name, but. She was a noble of sorts who fled ruin. She seemed innocent. In truth, I don't remember much after that..."

She begins to lead the dance into a more melancholic and somber one

"I hope... He got what he wanted. And that she died painlessly."

"But, that is how life is in Fódlan. Peace won't come for a long time."

Roroa adjusts her steps to a slower pace, matching that of Constance. "It seems peace is difficult to come by in any world. My current home is relatively peaceful due to its distance from the front lines, but the demon hordes seem endless. If those keeping us safe fall, then we may have to march out to face the creatures ourselves... World peace... That would be something worth wishing for, but something about this forced cycle of killing makes our host's promises feel very... questionable."

The room is dark right now save a single figure standing on a single tile.

Sue.

Mr Anonymous walks up to her. "May I have a task? It took a while to get here after all."

"My tasks are never easy, Mr. Anonymous. And they're always very personal. Are you sure?" Her grin is once more innocent and cruel at the same time, someone who delights in seeming friendly while twisting the knife in your stomach.

"If so, I have a task for you." She extends a hand with a piece of paper on it including instructions.

Mr Anonymous quickly hides in his room and locks the door, then barricades said door using his baseball bat and the bed.

You know this isn't perfect. A determined individual could definitely break open the door, almost as if they were designed to prevent barricading. That being said, it does bring a measure of peace.

You are still wearing your mask though, unless you indicate it was removed.

"Demons, hm? What a funny little knack. I'm sure I've been called a demon before."

"It seems as though this is how things will always be."

"It must be nice, living openly. I've been forced underground for, quite some time. Only recently did I begin to, well, come out and see the sun, so to speak."

She finishes up her dance, giving a courtesy

"And I must say, for someone who grew up not knowing the arts, you're a brilliant dancer. It's a shame your country chose the boring options as their culture. How can there be any fun in military?"

Once ‘kinda’ safe in his room, Mr Anonymous takes off his mask

Unless someone acts upon the room, you are safe. People did see you rush past and you can almost hear Sue's giggling from down stairs follow you several floors up.

"Sorry if that word irks you, it is what we call the invasive creatures that appeared in our world all of a sudden."

"I would say that is more thanks to my king. He brought freedom to my home and no one can take that away again." Roroa twirls a step away and returns the curtsy.

[Kuroneko]

Roroa heads to the observatory to see what might be around. She checks the couch and under the carpet in case there is a hidden coin or two.

There is indeed! You find a coin hidden under the foot of one of the couches.

It's hard to see with the odd glowing light at the western end of the room.

[Kuroneko]

Roroa attempts to shield her eyes and look out the window, see if there is anything strange when looking at the world in this manner.

You see blow you several... pods? There are hundreds upon thousands of these pods, all unlit. Four of them are open and you see a row a red lights guiding the way... well you cannot tell as it goes beneath you. But it originates from one of these pods.

Lights glow brightly above as well, the source of the red light in this room as well. It's weird with the red tint but more in an unsettling feeling than a "the world is distorted" feeling. Red is usually a color of warning, after all.

[Kuroneko]

Roroa heads to the morgue and checks inside the caskets and lockers. She tries to recall if she saw anything on Eve or Noah before.

No but perhaps someone else has? Or maybe it's hidden behind the doors. The most recent caskets belong to the four who have died.

Roroa checks Noah and Eve to see if they have anything on them.
