THE OWNER
I just got word, and it seems like things will be starting sooner rather than later. As I mentioned last week, I acted on emotion rather than reason. I wanted to regain some control, and I felt the best way to do so would be to introduce a healthy dose of chaos. The Open Doors Church has been manipulating things far too easily lately, and win or lose, this will certainly throw a wrench in their well-laid plans. Of course, I can’t understate how important winning is.
Complexico, the Gameshow Host, brings a strange assortment of quasi-riddles he calls “Complexities.” The first to solve them all wins a prize. Complexico’s prizes are often known to tip the scales one way or the other. I’m hoping that it’s something nice, but not too nice, if we end up losing. Complexico has only been released from his Cancellation Clause for around a week, so I can’t imagine the prize he’s found can be all that good. Still, we can’t take this game lightly. Also, by the by, you have to play. There’s no saying no to Complexico once he starts a game. That’s a certain way to end up dead.
But have fun! It is a game show, after all, if a bit of a strange one. While Complexico should never, ever, ever be trusted, he is… affable… underneath his oversized question mark mascot head. I wouldn’t have brought him back if he wouldn’t be useful to us. I’ve played his games before, though I doubt my past experience will be of any help. His “complexities” don’t exactly follow any conventional logic, though he’s good at making them seem like they do. Also, sorry we have to solve more riddles so soon after our last bout of life-or-death trivia.
Yours to buzz in,
Leyland’s First
