as the impact of the howler begins to recede, you all start slumping back to your homes, well aware that the owners of the night will soon be donning their cloaks, and there is a probablility that one of you will not wake up in the morning. and again your fears are confirmed when green evil lights the night sky and more laughter is heard breaking the silence. nothing has gone well for you all since the second day of this war, but if you think back further, it was actually before that when barkeep and blade with both killed in the same night. had it not been for the late votes to kill the Death Eater sndlvs that night, three wizards would have been killed in a single day, which could be insurmountable in terms of winning the war. Why are you having these thoughts...because you noticed that there is something different about the green light tonight, it seems brighter. Gripped with terror, you look outside and notice the reason immediately. Not one, but two Dark Marks adorn the starless sky outside. They are facing each other, appearing to mimic the laughter that you heard before they were shot into the sky. As day breaks, you slowly gather around the first house that was illluminated last night, and you enter to find the grey lifeless body of kinfc22 propped on the couch on all fours with what appears to be one of coffee warlords dead muggle yak's positioned provacatively behind him. Nothing of note is found in kingfc22's belongings except a large collection of pictures of Professor McGonagal from Hogwarts and numerous boxes of tissues. Moving along to the spot of the second Dark Mark, you almost dont realize what it was the Death Eaters did here. Laying on the floor in next to the liquor cabinet is the body of lathum, lying in pool of his own vomit, reeking of alcohol. So many times have you seen the town drunk in this position, asking anyone if they want to play the muggle game of chance called poker, that it takes you a minute to realize that lathum has been poisoned by the same means that Blade was a week ago. The news gets worse when you move all the liquor bottles out of the way in the cabinet and find the exact same stone basin that was found in Neon Chaos's house. Further examination finds a group of books and pamphlets, the title of which stands out from one of the moldier tomes, "a window into the mind, the ancient art of legilimency". It appears that in his moments of sobriety, Lathum had been a Student of Magic, and had recently mastered Legilimency.

it is day 7, vote deadline is at 9:30
