Charmay inhales sharply and snaps her fingers twice: Keep up, little man. You perform first because you must be seen by her. That buys you access to the castle, and keeps her attention away from you. The second performance, the one that matters, is mine. I will be on the stage when the curtain truly falls. You and your companions will be doing precisely what I have already told you: presenting the twins, preventing her escape, subduing her minions.
As for her precious prisoner... Endelyn does not dirty her own hands unless the world is ending. If she sensed the wards were failing, she would order her darklings to retrieve the girl long before she rushed to do it herself. She hoards her energy for theatrics, not chores.
Charmay folds her arms and eyes Greginald down the bridge of her nose. But by all means, you, who have been here for all of five minutes, may share with me the full brilliance of this ‘simpler plan’ you’ve suddenly conceived. Enlighten me with your wisdom.

How does a red dragon blow out the candles on its birthday cake?
"release the prisoner, kill the darklings and wait for her to figure out the world is ending... If she comes running then the twins will already be assembled and we just take her down. It's a big if, but it is only one." Greg sneers
Rowan does his best to follow along with what Charmay is saying, but it is an awful lot and some of it is confusing and contradictory and a lot of seems to just be complaining about his picking up of glowing objects.
While Greg does the talking Rowan runs through what they need to do. "Get a goblin's sceptre, break an ornytopper, whatever that is, and then get Glister and his sister together."
He pauses then adds "does Endelyn have somewhere she keeps stolen things?"
All the while, as he talks, Rowan works on opening the lantern to free the brigganock.
"I'm not a thief. At least not usually. I really don't want the lantern. But I think we do want to let the person locked inside out."
If the latch doesn't open easily, Rowan will use some force to get the lantern open.
I guess what I am trying to get at here is…. Do actors act here because they lost something or do they lose something because they act here? My friends and I are trying to figure out what is happening here. Maybe… help if we can. Not help Endelyn, but help stop whatever she is up to.
Mulligan is a bit reluctant to share this with Break-A-Leg, even telepathically, but he gambles that the skeleton is indeed not a fan of the witch.
Do you know how the hopes and the shadows and such are stolen?
As Charmay casts her spell to get the goblins to seemingly forget, Mulligan looks over and checks in with Break-A to ensure that they are unaffected. Assuming so, he looks back to what is happening out there and once Charmay starts heading towards the storeroom he double-checks that he is hidden as can be and mentally reminds Break-A to stay quiet!
When Charmay tells Rowan to keep the Brigganock lantern Mulligan tenses, uneasy. When she continues on to say he could keep it, to consider it a gift Mulligan feels goosebumps break out on his arms.
Careful. We have been warned about accepting gifts and the obligations they can come with.
Mulligan says this over the Group Chat for all to hear. He would shout it if he could, stress how important he feels this may be, but alas his words come out flat and cold as always.
Is there a danger in performing? Does it make new comers susceptible to Charmay? Or Endelyn?
Mulligan asks this hurriedly of Break-A as soon as Charmay starts laying out her plan.
And do you know why the elf is so important? How is he a threat?
Even as Mulligan is asking Break-A-Leg this question, however, Charmay answers it herself. Assuming she is to be believed. So reuniting the twins solves their problem? Interesting…. But Mulligan wonders just how literal this eclipse thing is - Could be cut a picture of the moon and the sun from a book, or a background, and overlap them? With this thought he looks around to see if he can perhaps see such things in the room…
Stagefright. Do you know this goblin? Could you point them out if you saw them?
Mulligan asks of Break-A…
Thinking for a minute Mulligan starts to wonder if perhaps...
What if I snuck off and found this Stagefright character? Stole their scepter however I could and then tried to free the twin while you all performed? I could also try to break this ornithopter or whatever if I had any idea where to find it or what it looked like? My hiding and sneaking about unknown to any could be a big advantage.
He shares this over the Group Chat, of course. The others cannot openly respond if he is to stay unknown even to Charmay but he watches for little nods or subtle clues. Of course is he has to come out to Charmay then so be it... But he'd rather stay hidden to all, if possible.
