And the Peasant would be the only one, who knows that either duels or dances were changed.
So, yes.
It isn’t obvious unless you are the Peasant…
your mom
After several hours of enjoying both good food and company, the 15 remaining competitors finally finish up their meals. The Trinity note that most plates are sparkling clean, and that people are beginning to get antsy. It’s time to move on to the next part of this glorious game. The Kitsune, the Lynx, and the Hummingbird all rise, with the latter pushing a hidden button near his seat. Only a few seconds later a podium starts to rise up from a well-concealed hatch in the floor. Laughing to himself, the Hummingbird gestures towards it with a flourish.
“Right away then! It’s time for…the guessing game! As you all know, each of you were given a mask upon your arrival here to hide your identity. But how well has it truly served you? After dinner each night- any one of you could step right up to this podium here and try to demask one of your fellows! You can either redeem a Free Guess voucher, if you’re a coward, or stake your life on a hunch… So, who’s feeling lucky?”
First to rise is the Turkey. All eyes follow her as she slowly stands up, hands a voucher to the Hummingbird, and approaches the podium.
“Ocelot…you seem like someone who’s been through all the horrors of war, am I right?”
The Turkey guesses the Ocelot as the Soldier!
She is…
Wrong
After the Turkey, the Snowy Owl quickly moves over to take her place at the podium after handing a slip of paper to the Lynx. With a steely glint in her eye, she stares directly at the Rabbit.
“Say Mr. Rabbit…I think the Turkey’s accusation would better fit you instead, no?”
The Snowy Owl guesses the Rabbit as the Soldier!
That is…
Correct.
The Rabbit starts to stutter and get flustered, turning red behind the mask. The Snowy Owl senses her victory, and struts over to rip the mask off the panicking Rabbit’s face. Under the mask is a scarred and war-torn young man, very clearly the Soldier just as accused. The Hummingbird starts to clap his hands and laugh with joy at the spectacle.*
“Oh, how brilliant! Now, you know what happens next, dear Soldier.”
The Soldier has recovered his poise, and nods slowly. He knew the stakes. At the Rabbit’s nod, the Hummingbird shoots him a wink and skips over to the unmasked man. The two are now standing face to face, when the Hummingbird ducks his head in an erratic motion, and slices the Rabbit’s throat with the razor-sharp beak of his mask. The Soldier’s eyes widen in disbelief as he crumples to the floor slowly. The Rabbit is no more.
the Rabbit (Arctic) has been successfully guessed as the Soldier.
At this, the Swan visibly gains confidence, smiling as he slips the Kitsune a redeemed guess, and approaches the podium himself. He points directly at the Squid with an accusing finger.
“I think you know more than you’re telling us, your time hiding in the shadows is no more!”
The Swan guesses the Squid as the Peasant!
This is…
Wrong
Another waves a Free Guess ticket in the air in a frantic gesture. Clearly the Ocelot is eager to make the next accusation after being wrongly guessed themselves.
“You carry yourself with the air of royalty.”
The Ocelot guesses the Fox as the Royal!
The accusation is…
Wrong
Next to approach the podium is the Red Panda. After some prompting by the Hummingbird, he fishes a guess voucher out of his pocket. He takes a breath and grips the podium tightly, staring at the Fox once again.
“The Ocelot was clearly wrong…Ms. Fox, there’s a reason you were given a mask just as sneaky as you!”
The Red Panda guesses the Fox as the Thief!
The guess is…
Wrong
As the Trinity are scanning the remaining competitors for any other guessers, the Ceryneian Hind raises her hand ever so slightly. With a nod of confirmation, she is the fifth to take the podium. The Hind is clearly keen for a repeat of the first repeated guess.
“No, the Red Panda surely has the wrong name. It’s you who’s sneaking around with sticky fingers, isn’t it?”
The Ceryneian Hind guesses the Turkey as the Thief!
The third repeated guess is…
Wrong
Clearly bored of all the wrong guesses, the still blood-soaked Hummingbird sighs to himself. Then, the Dog spins around to accuse the Ceryneian Hind, still on the podium!
*Oh, so you think you’re a real comedian, do you?”
The Dog guesses the Ceryneian Hind as the Court Jester!
The final guess is…
Wrong
“Oh alright, this is boring now! We’re done with this for tonight,” the Hummingbird yawns.
Still at the podium, the Ceryneian Hind starts to tremble and shake. The now bashful Dog tries to comfort her in vain. assuming it’s simply nerves. Yet this doesn’t appear to be so as the Hind stumbles, her legs giving out from beneath her. This sends the rest of the group into a panic as they swarm her in hopes of figuring out the problem. Yet the Ceryneian Hind, despite everyone’s efforts, is now struggling to breathe. Her face turns red, then blue as she feebly gasps for air that won’t come. As the Hind takes her last breath, the group start to realize this could only be the work of poisoned food.
The Ceryneian Hind has been killed by the Poisoner.
The Trinity brighten a little at the sign of another casualty. then start to shoo everyone out of the dining room in preparation for the next day.

boom bye soldier
MAA can now safely shoot anybody
there were 16 challenges this challenge phase
even if all 3 of both the barbarian and musicians charges were used on cp1
it’s only like a 15% chance that both the duel and the dance were tampered with
it is kind of obvious
