Player talk with the oldman (O), the time counter advance by 1 (T2).
The lives of npcs go on : one enter in the Bar, the others continue to walk
Some events can influence the events around them.
For example, if Players in T0 in Pl1, fight the young sailor, the other two npcs escape from the square,
and it will be no longer possible talk to them
Some events can grant bonus or malus to next events
Example :
Players are in the tower of a castle (T), in front of a closed door that prevent the escape route.
Enemy army chase them, soldier outside (O) try to reach the corridor (C) to invade the tower (T)
In the room Players find 3 keys:
- a key with a purple engraving
- a key of precious black wood
- a key with an embedded opal

Whenever Players try to open the door with a key, the time counter advance by 1.
If Players make too many mistakes, malus events will be generated :
enemies enter the tower and must be fighted
The game is designed to give non-direct guess to the Players, who can infer information,
discuss it with their teammate and understand which choice is the right one
A Player may notice, for example, the symbol on the engraved key is the same drawn on the tapestries of the castle,
argue that it must be a key built to be ostentatious, probably the key of a noble's bedroom.
A Player might notice that the wood key have the same shape as keys found in prisons, understand that it is the key of a cell.
By discussing the information available, Players can understand, in this case by exclusion, which is the correct event
