A very special congratulations, HouseAuthors! You are the final three! You’ve debated and battled it out against seven other formidable opponents, and have shown yourselves to be the best authors of the Enlightenment! While you three have all shown considerable strength and talent, alas, only one of you can win!

This final set of challenges will be slightly modified, and will force you to draw on every literary power you have as we race to a fantastic conclusion. In order to win this game, you must solve a difficult riddle that relates to your time in the House. This riddle can be solved based on your own thoughts and observations, but also through clues that you have either already obtained, or may win this week through challenges. But beware, some of these clues may lead you down the wrong path!

Since this is our finale, we’re going to ramp up the excitement right away, by offering you the chance to earn a very valuable clue this instant! In the garden is a locked box containing a major clue for you. In order to open the box, however, you must agree to vote out one of your own. This is not mandatory, so if the three of you can’t decide on who to eliminate, you’ll simply continue on with the game without that clue.

This opportunity won’t last forever! If you do decide to access the clue, you must vote someone out in the next hour! Good luck!
