    Alright let's get the Flavor text up now that I'm no longer heading towards sleep deprivation.

    We begin, as all stories do, at the beginning...
    Or about 30 minutes prior.

    Day 0:

    The Twin Kingdoms war had just ended in mutual defeat, and six persons from each kingdom had set out to begin a conference that would end the war forever, one way or another. They were a bit confused due to their long journey and so had perhaps slightly forgotten what their plans were at this conference, so most of them simply chose to quietly head to the castle in which it would be held and wait for their heads to clear.

    Not so one @Zone Q11 of the Red Kingdom. No, this particular individual recognized Black Kingsman @Clozdark from his 'memories of a past life' (his mother had him institutionalized, yes, but when the war came all hands were needed and the Red King had no time for people to waste away in asylums when they could be out there killing Blacks) and decided that the knife in his hand looked mighty shiny and stabby. Therefore, it would obviously be a great negotiating tactic to stab said @Clozdark over this imagined grudge before the conference even started.

    This, as might be expected, turned out to be a Bad Idea™.

    In response, still before the conference had even started or anyone actually knew what they were doing, @Clozdark decided it would be equally brilliant to stab @Zone Q11 back. After all, the inferior Red Kingsman had already lost his knife and couldn't defend himself, and didn't have any comrades present to stab @Clozdark when he was in a similar situation. Therefore this would most definitely not be a Bad Idea™.

    Oh wait. Yes he did.

    Oops.

    So yeah, then the first day started.

    Day 1:

    Early in the morning three individuals had arrived at the conference castle, just after the events of the above. Fortunately for @Clozdark they were all Black Kingsmen, @grandurr, @kyuukestu, and @Blitz. Unfortunately, upon seeing two knife less individuals enter the castle soon after the first three, one of each Kingdom, @Blitz decided it would be a great idea to stab... The Black one.

    ???

    Then @Fossil, @Ddraig, and @AliceShiki showed up. At this point poor @Clozdark was in the verge of bleeding out and hoping for some help from anybody. @AliceShiki graciously offered her assistance, then plunged a knife into his spine. Then again, she is a Red, so that was probably what she was supposed to be doing. Then @wraith showed up, saw the dead body and the bleeding @Zone Q11, and asked, as perhaps somebody should have before this, what the fuck was going on?

    Nobody had any good answers.

    They then spent the rest of the day talking a lot about stabbing. Who to stab, when to stab, where to stab them, who they shouldn't stab, and so on. It was pretty clear by this point 'peace' was completely off the table.

    Thus it should be no surprise that that was exactly what happened. As the bell was tolling and everyone was making excuses to head off to bed, @kyuukestu stabbed @Zone Q11 in the hand and pinned him to the wall. Whilst the poor Red was screaming, his countryman @wraith drew his knife to help and... Stabbed @Blitz.

    Who was on the other side of the room.

    Fortunately, @grandurr was there to help... Finish the inferior Red @Zone Q11 off for the glory of the Black Kingdom.

    At this point @Ddraig sheathed the knife he had surreptitiously pulled out to stab @Zone Q11 if no one else did and crossed his arms with a satisfied smile. @Fossil, watching the Black Kingsman warily, did the same. @Cypress, not sure what she was doing, pulled her's out and stabbed @Blitz. Because that seemed like a great idea. It wasn't like there were half a dozen more knives flying about the room or anything.

    One of those Knives, held by Red Kingsgirl @Nyan sempai, flew into @Blitz's undefended back and pierced his heart, instantly killing him. @Blitz perished with a dying scream of anguish, and @Ddraig stiffened as he recognized the sound of one of the royals he pledged his life to protect dying. Looking around the room, he realized none of the others bore a family resemblance to the falling @Blitz, dropped his knife onto an unsuspecting @AliceShiki's foot, and began the climb to the top of the tallest tower to contemplate suicide after his failure. This left many of his night chat partners in a bit of limbo, which didn't help the Black Kingdom get out of their chaotic array much.

    And this was Day 1.

    Oh, then @Ddraig came down an hour later with a gallon of beer and a keg of vodka. He joined his fellows waiting in their respective chatrooms, but really didn't do much except drink and complain about his sorrows.

    Day 2:

    The day dawned bright and early with the incineration of @wraith and the strangulation of @Miiro, but after the catastrophic death toll of the previous day nobody much cared. Now, at this point, you'd think that people would have learned their lesson about stabbing knives left and right willy nilly without any plan, especially if that swing happens to intercept your own countryman, but you would be wrong.

    As proved by @AliceShiki of the Red Kingdom, still limping on a perforated foot, as she took advantage of the slow morning to drive her knife directly into the face of @Fossil of the same Red Kingdom. This, like every other first stab so far, turned out to be a Great-
    Oh who am I kidding? It was obviously a Bad Idea™.
    This was proven remarkably quickly as a thrown knife from where @Ddraig was drinking in the corner hit @AliceShiki in the face and removed one of her eyes.

    @Fossil, perhaps drunk off the booze he 'borrowed' from @Ddraig at some point, decided an even Better (Worse) Idea™ would be to stab her back. True, this did kill her, but that left @Cypress, @grandurr, @kyuukestu, and @Nyan sempai circling him like hungry wolves, debating for hours and hours on who was going to stab him, when they were going to stab him, how they were going to stab him, and so on.

    Eventually the sun began to set and @kyuukestu took matters into his own hands. With his knife held in a reverse grip, he removed one of the legs of the Red Kingsman @Fossil and ensured he would never walk again.

    @Nyan sempai, however, was not satisfied with this and reminded the Black Kingsman that prosthetics were a thing. She instead used her knife to remove @Fossil's head.

    This left @grandurr and @Cypress wondering what to do with their knives as they headed off to private meetings in the night. Shrugging in unison, they decided to hold onto them for now. Never know who you might need to open a few holes in, after all.

    And that was the end of Day 2.

    Is anybody going to be alive come day 3?

    Day 3 begins:

    Continuing nicely from the above, Day 3 dawned with a shocking four out of five player still alive. Seems nobody want to kill people at night, which doesn't make much sense to me. I mean it's so much harder to figure out who the killer is if you act at night, but I guess there is a certain value in the reputation that could be used.
    Or @Zone Q11 could dream of it in his next life's delusions of past betrayals. Either or.

    Anyway, Black Kingsman @kyuukestu sadly perished in the night. Considers he seemed to be chopped into pieces by a blade >1.5 meters in length, it is probably safe to say Sorcery and Assassination had nothing to do with this, and knives seem a bit unlikely as well. The castle stock is limited to blades at most 30 cm long, and even those aren't used much. We can only conclude that a Guardian has chosen to take up a much more... Violent method of defending their liege.

    Surviving players: @Cypress @Ddraig (still eliminated, of course, but he does have a knife...) @grandurr @Nyan sempai. By this point they should be well aware of what kingdom they are in.

    Try not to use all your knives during the day this time. It really shouldn't be that hard.

    Ddraig can't win since he's guardian. So he's eliminated. But Nina was all, "Fuck it." And decided he can still play cause why not.

    Status (4 hours remaining in day):

    @Cypress is visiting grandurr
    @Nyan sempai is visiting grandurr
    @grandurr isn't visiting anyone.
    @Ddraig has chosen secretly.

    And, perhaps surprisingly,
    People listened to this. No stabs (yet).
