Bullets
(More can be added if a character goes through Drosselmeyer!)
Drosselmeyer: The founder of Gold Crown Town, knows all that happens within his walls. You’re welcome to ask him anything, but he may not answer truthfully.
Edel’s Body: She has a rope around her neck and based on the damage around her eyes and blue tint of her skin, she suffocated to death. The broken neck does not help either. Definitely death by hanging (and not just strangulation). She also, however, has a blow on the side of her head. This blow was not fatal but enough to knock anyone out. Edel’s body also seems to be made of wood but functions just as any other body would–it needs oxygen for example. She does not have blood, though. There are signs of dragging on her clothes and skin.
Bell Tolls: No bell toll was heard after 3pm EXCEPT the one calling for Edel’s death.
Gold Crown Academy: Four visitors were seen entering the Academy of your group. Humpty Dumpty, Devil, Baby Bear, and Snow White (who is documented twice). Edel’s jewelry box is scattered in the back of the school and there is a statue of Edel in the art room.
Residential: Only one house seems to have been visited of the groups and it still has a fire burning as well as a half prepared dinner. It is the Bears’ house.
Gold Crown Lake: The boat house is badly damaged and has seen recent collapse. The boat itself has gone on the lake today and there is a duckling currently floating in the lake. It is holding a golden egg. There are also some bread crumbs in the grass. The rope intended to hold the boat to the pier is missing.
Library: Several books were taken out of the library, too many to really keep track unfortunately.
Clock Tower: The clock tower’s cogs seem badly damaged and have a hammer resting against them. The cogs also have rope strewn through them in an elaborate contraption leading up to the top of the clock tower. Near the end it is attached to the bell before hanging off the edge of the tower itself to where Edel’s body where hanging.
Market: A few vendors remark that they sold a fair bit of food here, but one comments about a missing hammer.
Gates: Several guards are bewildered and half of them have a very positive opinion of Humpty but not of the Goose or Devil. There’s a terrified cat near the south gate along with a lot of loose paper fragments with printed words on them.
Mystery: There’s a strange mystery going on here in this town, can you figure out what it is?
