You enter the main barn! It is, FAR different than the Lily Barn you may know, very porcelain, overly clean and beautiful. A portrait of the Lady is hanging among those of Holy Beasts and the King. Seems she thinks highly of herself.

But the Lilies of this time took security just as seriously--an alarm sounds.

ROLL - MIGHT if 7+ you are not ejected by the forcefield, and can control where you go. If less than 7, you are EJECTED. Roll 1d3, and go to either:
1) Magic Room
2) Croquet
3) The Dream Factory

*Note: This roll is optional for actual Lilies. +1 to 2 stats of their choice.

Move?

...I really can't speak to our Lady's taste.

I think her taste is just "being rich".

Yeah. It's. Uhm.

It's very apparent why she wanted a gold statue in the middle of her garden.

[i guess for them the alarm starts to sound and turns off. +1 san, +1 knowledge]

How elegant...

[are there signs of other Lilies here, or does it seem like the Lady lived alone...?]

[There are signs of others! In fact, in the dining room, it looks like there's tea set out for several. INSPECT?]

[YEAH DUDE spill the tea]

[if he picks up a teacup, spectres of Lily past appear--the dining room is full of dozens of people, all Lilies, all in good spirits.

The priestess is not there.

Another good day, is it not? Ah, did our Lady prepare this spread for us??

But of course! She can do it all! We really do have the most perfect of priests.

Maybe she shouldn't get married and just stay here, haha!

No, that'd be too selfish. But I guess we'll eventually have to start cooking for ourselves.

Oh goodness, who will coordinate our outfits?

Or organize our schedules.

Now now, I'm sure she'll be kept busy in the palace, too.

Haha! Ah well, we can enjoy the easy life while it lasts. . .]

[startles a little and speaks to them, sharp]

You ought not have raised her to such expectation. The living should help the living, in the same house.

...I don't disagree, but. Telling them that isn't going to change the past now.

[checking to make sure he doesn't fall into any death traps]

A family meal?

It looks like it. Maybe she really did have family.

[feel free to notice he started yelling at ghosts as soon as he picked up a teacup]

[he sure see that]

[ Gives the painting a dubious look ]

Didn't she have any paintings of, like, normal friends? Or family?

I wonder. Our sample size of past Lilies was...two. Perhaps they were a small house.

Maybe... I guess it'd make sense for a death vibes flock to have low numbers.

Or low living ones, at least.

[ now there's a sobering thought ]

Good point.

[he's found tea laid out for Many, though]

Or perhaps not...?

Do you think she has normal friends or family? She's never mentioned any.

She hasn't, but I thought that might've been amnesia from giving up her name. I guess it might not've been.

That's true. It's not like I've asked her, either. She doesn't seem like the type to care too much even if she did have people she was friends with, is the problem.

She couldn't even care about whether Stormy liked her or not, so you're probably right.
