Voyage day 2

Kurapika wakes after nine hours — as does Oito, linked through Stealth Dolphin — having spent roughly five years of life. He derives the three-hour rule and its triple-length blackout penalty. Sixteen students attend the first class, where Furykov counts four attendees faking ignorance of Nen; Tserriednich orders his guards to kill everyone if two weeks pass without results; and someone activates Silent Majority inside the room.

Event sequence
  1. DiscoveryDay 2Canonical
    Nine hours dark: the three-hour rule

    Kurapika wakes after nine hours — Oito, linked through Stealth Dolphin, slept exactly as long. He works out Emperor Time's rule of thumb: about three hours of stolen-ability use before blackout, with unconsciousness three times the overage, and roughly five years of lifespan already spent.

  2. Nen revealDay 2Canonical
    Oito's aura nodes open

    Using Stealth Dolphin has forcibly opened Queen Oito's nodes: she can now use Nen. The cockroach she piloted, meanwhile, was eaten by Tserriednich's Guardian Spirit Beast — surveillance has its own predators.

  3. RecordDay 2Canonical
    First Nen class convenes — with four ringers

    Sixteen students from rival camps fill Room 1014. Furykov, himself a hidden expert, counts four attendees faking ignorance of Nen. The classroom is a chessboard from its first morning.

    Consequences (1)
    • Attacks on Room 1014 cease while class is in session
  4. DecisionDay 2Canonical
    Tserriednich's two-week ultimatum

    The Fourth Prince orders his attending guards to kill everyone in the class if they cannot learn Nen within two weeks. Kurapika's school acquires a countdown it does not know about.

  5. Nen revealDay 2Canonical
    Silent Majority activates in the classroom

    An unidentified user activates the ability Silent Majority inside Woble's quarters — the sealed-room killer has walked in through the front door with the students.
