how am I alive still

Woke up, left my dorm room as Kroos was entering. As I was walking down the hallway I was almost crushed by a giant rock? Alllrighty then. I made my way to Carpentry so I could give my beloved workshop one last goodbye. I left some final words on the stairs in Carpentry, said my goodbyes, then left to the Saloon to see my good friend Roland get obliterated repeatedly for fun.

After I entered I saw Nanao enter after I did and head upstairs, then Jessica comes downstairs and leaves. Then McJango and Panimajesh come in. Ah yes, friends of nature! I pet the McJango that's a good McJango. He heads upstairs as Nanao comes back down with some very poor looking soup before McJango comes back down. Quite a bit of time passes before Akira and North Star show up and start drinking. Then Roland enters and oh man, it starts immediately. North Star challenges Roland to a duel but uh... yeah Roland got blasted in the chest. I let out a whistle, that looked like it hurt. And by hurt I mean anyone else would be absolutely dead.

More drinking and tomfoolery happens until Kroos enters from the gun store entrance, and Morgan as well. Then Jessica shows up and also challenges Roland. One funny sword duel later Jessica leaves to the east and North Star leaves to the north. Roland, after recovering slightly from the repeated bashing, takes a bit to catch his breath. Right then I hear some wailing and crying. Then a bit after that I hear some hooves as the Black Horse comes dashing through and absolutely bongles Roland on its way through. Kroos leaves after that and Morgan enters again and heads upstairs. Lots of traffic today, even some Cowboy??? with a mustache who just looks at Roland then leaves as well.

Then the other man of the hour, the one who is both impressed and intensely annoyed at my existence, shows up. Atua himself. We have a quick chat and he owes me a drink for surviving attempt or die night, and that chat was pleasant! I feel very unsafe! He mentioned there's some kind of "final gambit" in motion that will make all of us comply but... NAHHHH. But yeah, he has a drink then leaves for the Gun store, as I hear an explosion happen somewhere in the distance. Oh and Morgan's back. He gives McJango a hot dog, puts him in a hot dog costume, takes a picture, then goes back upstairs. D'awww...

Well after all of that, Roland's awake again. Mornin' buddy, how are you feel- oh he gets immediately doubletapped and falls down again. I look at the shooter and see a chicken? And Akira entering with said firearm. She takes a seat and waits for Roland to wake up, slaps him, calls him a piece of shit, then has a drink with us! Very fun indeed.

I had my fill of the night after that, so I decided to head back to my dorm. Akira comes with me and we head back to the Prickly Pear dorms, split up, and I head back to my room to sleep.

You re-check Nico's inventory. She also has a note calling her out and telling her to go to the Law Office.

Huh. How about that.

I submit my sword for comparison against Bowl's wounds.

Your sword is much sharper than whatever cut his head off. It would have taken it off in a single strike.

I'd like to review the contents of Nico's stomach to cover our bases, as well as possible evidence of a struggle.

You check over Nico. There's no evidence of a struggle, but there is a wet spot on the back of her shirt.

Opening her stomach, you find an unidentifiable slurry inside.

Doesn't look like it really matches any of those options.

I reckon I did some mighty good work with this disguise though, so I'll show it off for everyone who weren't there. I also wanna check around the back of the blue and green buildings for anything outta place.

You show off your disguise. Turns out that's where yo curly mustache at, as you are a cowboy with a curly mustache. Neat.

You check the back of the two buildings, but find nothing of note other than the Newspaper window being open.

Opening her stomach, you find an unidentifiable slurry inside.

Check the crater in the Cemetery.

What does Nico's skin look like beneath the wet spot? Also, where precisely is the wet spot, particularly in relation to her stomach?

You can't seem to tell if it is or not. Weird.

Check the crater in the Cemetery.

It's a big hole in the dirt. You can see some bones sticking out. How rude.

Nico's skin appears normal. The wet spot is on her back, directly below her neck and between her shoulder blades.

There ain't no signs of an explosion at the Cemetery, are there? Also, does an axe match Bowl's wound?

Check in the tabacconist, laundry, tailor and barber shop for anything

It looks like something blew up there, actually. Explosion crater.

An axe does not match Bowl's wound, as far as you can tell.

Check in the tabacconist, laundry, tailor and barber shop for anything

Some clothes are missing from the Tailor.

A wig and scissors are missing from the Barber Shop.

Some clothes and a laundry board are missing from the Laundry.

Nothing is weird about the Tobacconist.

Check the Newspaper, Bank, Vault, Chapel, and the dorms of all the dead prickly pear people (RIP them btw)

Make Evangeline sniff Nico's wet spot and try to see what liquid caused it. I'm not sniffing it it might be piss.

Nothing of note in any of these rooms.

It turns out to be Water.

Check the liturgic study records, equipment, research lab and testing range

No, nothing in these rooms either.
