[ USUALLY Huaisang's content to ignore the elephant in the room. Even if it ends up rampaging around, he'd desperately ignore it!! But...this is the only instance where that seemed unacceptable to him. He acknowledged it though and that's just going to have to be good enough for now. When they get more information, maybe things will be different. ]

What do you mean? While I agree it probably isn't Hamelin now that I think about it, he did say this is his first time setting this all up, so he couldn't have done all of this before...

[ Pause. Wait, a lightblub moment?! ]

Unless you mean that someone participated before Hamelin initiated a game like this?
