week three: trial

Week Three: Trial
22 in Competition

It may be difficult to sleep with the light shining so brightly throughout the night, but the participants can rest easy knowing they will not be plagued by unwanted, disturbing dreams. Early the next day, a bell chimes and all will feel compelled to enter the main meeting hall.

The hall looks mostly the same as it always has, the two thrones for Lune and Sol at the head of the room and scrolls hanging from the walls. The metal box sits on a table near the front, along with the glass boxes perfectly centered before the benches in the room. Now that the trial is in session, Swift Wind and Hisoka's coffins are open, and their bodies will be available for examination.

Lune and Sol are seated in their thrones, patiently waiting for the last participant to settle. It's only when everyone has gathered that Sol speaks first.

"We've got a lot of ground to cover today. Don't give up."

They stop, glancing at Lune and gesturing for them to say their piece.

"Face the truth directly, and don't turn away from what you may find."

Hello, everyone, and welcome to the fourth trial!

We'll go over a few notes briefly as we will be playing this trial a bit differently than other games.

As noted, there was no investigation period on Friday. However, today participants will have the chance to investigate areas in the game setting as they see fit! This can be done by providing the name of the location you want to visit to the host header comment. To help with the ease of the trial and for IC mechanics, only one location may be visited at a time. In addition, these locations can be manipulated and adjusted upon request to test theories and solve puzzles, so please feel free to ask if you're searching for clues! Your host will also be accompanying you on these visits.

Most importantly, before the trial is over, please place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9pm EST/6pm PST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously.

If you have any questions at any time, please let do us know by pinging us on Discord! Dana and Ty will be in the chat and available for all questions. Thank you, and have fun!

He was concerned about hurting others. So I respected his wishes.

[ I. She. ]

And what if you were dragged along with this as well?? Then we'd have three bodies and you'd have gift wrapped yourself for the killer!

[ Just??? ]

You could have tied him to something, if you were that determined to respect his wishes. The bed frame, the door, something bolted down. It might have made it harder for the killer to drag him off too!

I had one arm tied. I was still capable of fighting, if need be. And I'm not easy to move.

You were asleep. If you're not a target, or if you don't have an item like Kara did then there's nothing you could have done.

... We're all useless, once that sleep hits us.

... There wasn't anything you could have done.

[ Less like an accusation, more like a reassurance this time. ] Once he was awake and you weren't then... his idea would have made things worse for him.

[ saix doesn't think that swift wind would have cared if being tied up made things worse for him, but. ]

You are right.
