WEEK ONE, SATURDAY
INVESTIGATION(?)
Exciting night, no? Were you able to get to sleep, or did you stay up into the wee hours, seeing that far-off shimmer near the gazebos and listening to the rising rumble of whatever-that-is and wondering when it would come for you?
At least, when dawn finally comes and the shimmer is overcome by the rising light of the sun, it seems that last night wasn't the end. For you.
Instead, once it's morning proper, there's a shift -- like the breeze and the smell after a bout of sudden summer thunderstorm without the storm: the pressure and the oppressive atmosphere of yesterday is gone, just like that. But also: accompanying it a few seconds later is a clean whipcrack of sound, like giant hands clapping together. And a moment after that, you'll feel something pass overhead -- you won't be able to see anything, but anyone outside at the time will find themselves staggered by what seems to be a small shockwave spreading throughout the island.
That's not the only change that awaits you this morning, however.
You might want to get out of bed, if you haven't already, and take a proper look around.
(( OOC: Welcome to our peace week Saturday event, islanders! Please note that this will be run similarly to a normal investigation, but will not be a full investigation. As such, everyone is welcome to explore for the first part of the event, and then we will take a limited amount of people for the second half, investigation-style. ))

Wasn't just me. Billy took care of the body, Alice looked at a lot of the grounds.
[As for the questions, the redhead simply nods, turning on his D.D.D's screen and flipping to his photo gallery, before holding it out to Temenos.]
Here. Billy's crowbar is there, too. He's got it on him if you need a better idea of the size.
[There's one photo of the rings left behind on the ground, and one of the bloodied back of Merlin. The wounds are much smaller in circumference than the circles on the ground.]

[He watches Beelzebub's demonstration, eyes widening slightly as the pictures come into view.]
My, this would be so useful for my investigations back home. Let's see here...
[He takes the device and begins to study the pictures...]

No amount of speaking to him will break him from some sort of trance-like concentration.]

There's a noticeable shift in Temenos' expression and he glances up.]
Yes?
no subject
...Good, you're okay.
Can I have my phone back?
no subject
Oh, yes. Of course.
[Handing it back!]
My apologies for causing undue concern. I have a rather...terrible habit of concentrating a little too deeply at times.
no subject
... Does this happen a lot?
