It is the evening of April 15th, 1205. Day 27 of the lunar cycle, and so there is a crescent moon (waning) in the sky tonight. Except that the sky is overcast; the moon and stars cannot be seen. Without some source of light, it will be very difficult to see while outside (mystical powers not withstanding). The weather is expected to get worse through the night.
Rudolf wakes in his new chambers. There's no sign that anybody has attempted to enter. It is the third night after his arrival. Count Teschen encountered some obstacles to having all the men and the silver tipped weapons available on the second night, but he predicted that all would be fine by tonight.
