As the three selected actors crept through the silent set, they debated amonst themselves which of their castmates to "kill". Just as they'd narrowed the list down to three - they'd started out with three candidates, so this wasn't as impressive as it sounds - one of them felt a finger tap them on the shoulder. The Director raised a finger in a "shh" motion and beckoned for the group to follow her over to one of the bottomless pits scattered around the set. Lying near it was a fake body, wearing the same clothes the Director had been wearing earlier.

"Well?" she said impatiently.

"Sorry, what?" one of the actors said.

"Fake blood," the Director prompted. The group got to work, transforming the obviously fake body into an obviously dead one. When they'd finished, the Director used another packet of fake blood to write on the rock next to the body.

"Now go act innocent," she told the actors. "You're on your own from now on."

The cast woke up pretty simultaneously, disturbed from their rest by someone screaming. The yawning actors gathered around the body.

"So...we still get paid, right?" Eruhen asked, breaking the silence.

"Did you not see the writing?" Tum said. "'Kill them before they get you'."

"Being paid is the last of our worries," Nerwen said.

"But how do we know who did this?" Eomer asked.

"It could be anyone," Glirdy said.

The others looked at each other warily.

"We vote, I suppose," Galadriel55 said.

Day 1 has started.
