The laughter fades, but the House isn’t done playing.

After surviving the stage and the Goblin’s performance, our Syndicate agents press deeper into the House of Fun, where patience becomes a weapon and the walls breathe in time with the ticking of unseen gears. Traps whisper lessons about virtue, and every choice weighs heavier than the last.

Acid swamps, half-spoken vows, and the haunting promise of a final curtain call—this “day off” turns into a descent into spectacle and self. The party will learn what it costs to be clever… and what it means when the applause finally stops.

“Glory is cheap. Meaning is expensive.”

🕯️ Part II of the House of Fun arc — where the laughter cracks, the truth bleeds through, and every virtue is tested beneath the stage lights.
