Forget all your troubles
[You wake up and instantly realize something is wrong.
There is a vague feeling of dread hanging in the air and, as comfortable as this bed is, there’s just something off about everything, even before you open your eyes. The dread only grows when you open your eyes and realize that you are in a completely unfamiliar room. One that has clearly seen better days at that.
As you explore your room, you will soon find a bedroom key resting on the dresser along with a note]
Welcome, esteemed guest, to our humble abode. We hope that you enjoy your stay in this Phantom Manor, as we expect you to stay with us for a very long time.
Feel free to make yourself at home as you enjoy what this manor has to offer, whether it’s the library, our projection room, or our famous wax museum. We’re sure you will find great joy
However, before you can get too comfortable, we ask you to please come to the portrait gallery at noon so we can discuss your stay here.
We eagerly await to meet you.
-Your Host
[The uncomfortable feeling doesn’t let up as you leave the safety of your bedroom. The manor seems old and decrepit, almost like it would fall over at the slightest breeze. Despite that, anyone who tries to escape will soon realize that the walls are unusually sturdy, and there are no doors that would seemingly lead to the outside world.
Still, at least you’re not alone in this scenario, if the other bedroom doors are any indications. Maybe there are a few more people coming out of their bedrooms too, so you have someone to talk toif you want to try to figure out what's going on. But if the 30 bios in the foyer hall are any indication, whoever has you here did not do this on accident. Whatever you’re here for, it seems like you’re here for a reason.
But hey, what’s the use of being pessimistic about this? Maybe it’s all an innocent situation… right?]

[ Someone with influence. With wealth.
With...wealth, anyway. Probably. Certainly someone worth having on his side. Gaston smiles, bowing slightly. ]
I'm sure you are, Your Highness. To all your people!
...Which people are those, exactly?
no subject
The people of France. I don't suppose you've heard of France...?
[Incredible.]
no subject
[ How many princes does France need, anyway? But no, this is good. Gaston makes a sweeping bow. ]
I myself hail proudly from Villeneuve.
no subject
Oh! What a coincidence. I'm afraid I've never been there. [He has no idea where that is. Oh no. How does he not know where that is?] But it's good to know that it's in good hands!
no subject
You are too kind, Your Highness! We do what we can...
no subject
Speaking of what we can... I've been trying to puzzle out what this room is supposed to be for a while now.
[He can't figure out any explanation that makes a lick of sense.]
no subject
Gaston nods thoughtfully, turning to consider the nearest wax figure. ]
Local heroes, I assume.
no subject
It would help if we knew what was local.
[Like, he studied his geography, but he has no idea where they might be and it doesn't help that they can't go outside.]
no subject
[ He hesitates, catching a glimpse of this guy. ]
Well, most of them.
[ He turns his attention back to the Prince. ]
It's hard to know, isn't it? If they'd just let us outside...
