Ashgate #1 - Game Thread

Sit in the chair behind the Clerk's Desk and admire the bounty of Literature stored here... or something. While you're at it, check under the desk for stuff!

 

You're pretty sure you already checked under the desk, but you take a glance around anyway before sitting down. You frown.

What will you do next?

Alright, well **** it. Let's go look somewhere else for these books. Liiike maybe the Security Room? (Unless we've already been there and I'm not remembering.)

 

You think about taking a walk over to the security room to search more, but you're almost certain that there is nothing else to find there.

Hmmm, King Lear referred to a 7, and Macbeth referred to a 1... we have yet to see a door marked as 7 or 1... but we have seen doors marked with 8 and 5... perhaps we should head to those doors again and check them out to find any clues?

 

You think back to the bloody numbers you saw earlier on some of the dorm rooms. Since you've already been to the security and unlocked most of them, you figured it wouldn't hurt to take a look - especially since some of the numbers matched up to what you have currently on the books you found...

Which room will you go to first?

Let's give room 204 a look first!

 

You get up out of your seat and head over to Room 204. You tap your key card on the reader, but the door only opens slightly. It seems to be jammed.

Alright, we might want to check that later. For now, how about 201?

 

You head over to Room 201 and tap your key card. The door opens without any hassle. What will you search first? The bed, desk or wardrobe?

Let's check the wardrobe first and look for any signs of a hidden bottom

 

You thoroughly inspect the interior of the wardrobe, making sure not to miss any hidden compartments. Your search turns up nothing.

I wanna search the bed next

 

You give the bed a quick search over before checking underneath. As you place your hand onto the mattress for support, you feel something hard from inside the pillow.

What will you do now?
