There is an unseasonable chill in the air; the humans of Chicago clutch their coats and shiver, unsure why the weather has turned for the worse.
Something has changed, they know-- but how?
The Others watch the first ripples spread throughout the city. The Fae Courts watch with quiet murmurs; the demons consider how to turn events to their advantage.

Requirements
-Welcome to Author Games: Empty Night! Let's get down to business.
-As our intrepid investigators, you obviously need to visit the scene of the crime--that is, Dorian's luxurious home. Your entry must end with your arrival at the scene (encountering the other investigator(s) is entirely optional.)
-That's the only real requirement this round, but I'd recommend some character establishment, why they're doing this, etc. What that means precisely for your character is left to your discretion.
-Sponsorships are this round! Remember to impress (and not deliberately try to throw your entry to avoid it. Gosh, who would do something as counter-intuitive as that?)
The Clue
Once per round, I will provide a clue about the identity of the killer. Maybe a cunning writer could spot where the clues point?
The prince's killer hails not from on high.
Deaths: Two ballot kills, to be submitted with your entry.
Due Date: Friday, May 4 at 10 PM EST.
