I’m sorry, I’d love to join, but I have way too much on my plate (in my bowl?) right now. Maybe next round? (Hopefully I’ll be free then. Watch this be the beginning of a never-ending cycle where I keep saying “next round” and never actually join)

At this rate the current round could be done in a week, or a month.  Good luck!

I would participate again next game, whenever it starts. Preferably as a tribute.

I think I should like to participate in the next game as a tribute as well. Apparently it took an epidemic to stop me from being too overloaded with life to be able to show up much in the Shard. I guess every cloud has a silver lining

Hello. I would like to participate in the next round. As a tribute if possible, though I will take any role.

 

[Lunar Blessing she/her]

I run over to the table and sit down at my chair.

Feast time.

Noted, Sorana, Elend, and Coda! (I’ll probably also be in the next round.) 

I’m gong to bring up that John hasn’t been online in almost three months, so if either Kenod or Po wins before he comes back, I don’t think we should wait for him. (No offense, John.)

[BeaverBuster]

can I join in the next round?

If so, when does it start?

You can indeed! We don’t know when it will start yet, this one’s taking a little while to finish. 

 

[kenod]

I walk into the room with the feast, walking towards my seat. My rope is wrapped around my arm so I can use it as a shield if someone breaks the truce, and I have the sword-ring on my finger. Silently I sit down at my spot, looking at who else is still alive and has decided to show up.

[Lunar Blessing she/her]

I give Kenod a little wave.

Okay, so do we or do we not know when the next round is?

It will hopefully be soon, we just need either Po or Kenod to die somehow  (tagging Invo too in case the feast is special, since they both sat down).

@kenod

I nod back, tense, wondering when something is going to happen.

Wasn't there a third person around too?

There was John, but he hasn’t been active in months.

As Kenod sits and greetings are exchanged, the entrances to the feast chamber seal shut and a speaker rises from the center of the table. A Gamemaker's voice emanates from it.

"Welcome to the feast! You are the final two tributes, or at least you will be as soon as our, how shall we say, absent friend is dealt with, which should be-" A single cannon shot echoes in the distance, cutting off the voice -"which has just happened. Anyway, congratulations on making it this far! This feast's truce will last for approximately half an hour, at which point you are free to do what you do best! Enjoy your food, and don't forget to check under your seats for a very special prize. May the odds be ever in your favor, and I look forward to seeing where things go from here."

The speaker retracts and the table in front of you both slides open to reveal an obscene amount of food. 

Quote

If you check under your seats, there'll be a small package like one of the sponsor packages. They both contain a single F-pewter ring and a heavy quarterstaff. Enjoy. The ring of ground inside the mountain will fall away as time passes, so don't dawdle on killing each other once the truce ends.

Expandable, made of metal. Comes out of the packaging and springs open to full length.

That would actually be pretty fun irl. Those little wimpy expandable batons can only get you so far.
