    Yet another person who looks strangely like the inspector, but with black hair, knocks on the door.

    Scen had managed to trick his way into a Ball. This Ball was, of course, Invite only, but every minor noble and their cousins got an invite, so getting the Invite was not the hard part; all it required was breaking into a noble's city-house and plucking it off their desk. No, the hard part was the suit. Ebony spiderweb and the oils needed to turn them into thread came only from a single island in the Caribbean; procuring it nearly had cost him an arm and a leg. Luckily, his benefactors had... strange forms of obtaining wealth, which spared him the explanation to his mother and the many questions that would have come with it. But Aye, it was worth it. His suit was iridescent, black as night when still, but shimmering and shifting when he moved. The buttons alone (Carved ivory) cost more than his weight in gold. It needed to be beautiful to fit his part; He needed to be beautiful to fit his part. The benefactors never said it, but Scen suspected that was why they chose him for the role, not for his loyalty, though he certainly didn't lack it, but for his beauty. Why else would they throw a thief into such a role? And Scen truly was gorgeous; his mother must have been a fairy, many often said. He never did get to ask, for she died in childbirth. How else would he have such perfect grey eyes? How else would his skin, almost as white as his buttons, be in perfect contrast to his Blue-black hair? But his beauty is beside the point; He is here for one goal and one goal only. Get close to the Prince-Regent, and kill him. One way or another. But first, small talk.

    "I'll call you.. Fred then." He walks back over to quest, away from "Fred"

    "It's just your first name? Or just something to call you by, if you want that instead."

    Havri gets a roll of bandages and hands them to Antin. "Sorry, never got your name?"

    "Ohh, the whole anti-magic thing? Right! Sucks to be you... I have some bandages if you'd like? You're not allergic to those right?"

    The voice chuckles and says Find the answer to my three tales before The Time Is Up! A ring that goes not on a hand! A picture of a forgotten land! And the last has already been said: BE NOT MISLED. Find them quickly and return them to me all on the count of ONE TWO THREE! The voice booms before reducing into incoherent laughter. Three doors appear at the end of the hallway, and the two suits of armor return to their resting place. @Ookla the Wayfarer

    Havri walks over "You ok?"

    I-I think that's bad. You might start seeing things?

    A booming laugh comes from deep inside the castle. Leave!? WHY WOULD YOU EVER WANT TO LEAVE? The door remains closed.

    Laegon sees the fog enter the suits, and then, visible to all of you, Green fire erupts in the statues' eyes. They raise their halberds and prepare to fight. Ghosts indeed Says a chorus of voices.

      This means Night Blood for those of you who don't know.

    Havri's sword flies out of his hand, and Havri himself stumbles back. He shakes his fist as Johnston runs away. "Flee you Villain! Bother innocents no longer!" Havri turns to Quest "Are you ok?"

    The door slams shut behind you. You are standing in the Atrium, which is a large room with a crimson carpet and ornate woven banners line the walls. Two sets of plate armor with halberd Leagon, you see a strange green mist twisting towards the Armor. The fog twists and squirms like a trapped worm as it writhes through the air. All of you feel a cold prickle down your neck, and the smell of clay and rotten flesh fill the air.

    Ok, so we're doing a research paper in school, and for some ungodly reason, they decided everything must be on paper. Picture 80 kids printing 20+ sheets of paper around the clock (There are 4 blocks with 2 classes of 40 each).

    Every single printer in school jammed. 

    And since they jammed, the printer didn't work, so people went back to reprint it, so duplicates of these 20+ page sources were printed when these printers came back online. I eventually got the single sheet of paper I was looking for after 30 minutes (I printed most of my sources at home). 
     

    Now I'm sitting there, and my teacher wants me to handwrite note cards, including citations. This wouldn't be bad if the citations didn't look like this.

    Horrock, Nicholas M. "Approaching a crisis of peace West needs new way to view, deal with communism Series:

    COMMUNISM. A world of change. After the Cold War was institutionalized in the 1950s, many agencies had a major stake in it. Sixth in a series.: [CITY EDITION]." Chicago Tribune (pre-1997 Fulltext), Jul 30, 1989, pp. 1. ProQuest, https://ssolanding.www.proquest.com/newspapers/approaching-crisis-peace-west-needs-new-way-view/docview/282553159/se-2.

    No disrespect, teacher but I'm not handwriting that on a 3x5 in a notecard, which also needs to have the title (Horrock, Nicholas M. "Approaching a crisis of peace West needs new way to view, deal with communism Series: COMMUNISM. A world of change. After the Cold War was institutionalized in the 1950s, many agencies had a major stake in it. Sixth in a series.: [CITY EDITION].)  

    (The other titles are only two sentences, not 4, so slightly better.)

    And the quote, "In fact, more than 160 million Americans, two-thirds of the population, were born after 1947, the year when the governments of Czechoslovakia and Poland were seized by communists... For these Americans, the state of suspicion and fear of the communist bloc is as much a part of life as going to school." 

    I need to do this 12 times (4 times for each article)
