Sneaky Spycraft, Week 14, Period 5
Once everyone had arrived in the Danger Shop, Aly started talking. The lecture today was on poisons and some of their common effects. It was one of the longer lectures, taking up not quite half of the class time.
Once she was done talking, Aly glanced at the class to make sure they were watching then hit the play button on the scenario and suddenly the hall was filled with people. Servants walked in and out carrying dishes of delicious looking food and carafes of wine while a loud and rich-looking group of people dined at the high table, toasting each other and commenting happily on the food - and the servants - as it was paraded by. It was, in short the same scenario as they'd used two weeks ago.
She hit the button again and everyone in the scenario disappeared except the girl on the dais. "If you haven't figured it out already," Aly said quietly. "We're coming at this from a different angle today. Today your orders are to take this girl out without drawing suspicion to you or your faction. Poison is underhanded - it's called 'the woman's weapon' in several countries because it's considered dishonourable - but it is used because it works." Aly glanced around the room, gauging reactions. "So today your task is to work either alone or with a partner to devise a strategy to take down the Queen on the dais. Remember all the precautions we talked about two weeks ago? Assume that the Queen has more than a few bodyguards watching out for her and for any attempts to hurt her and factor that into your calculations."
"Any questions?" she glanced around, answering all that came up. "Go to then. I'm around if you want to hash out ideas or discuss."
