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!

...We should probably check, yeah.

[She's got you, Shirasu.]

And maybe check everyone's pockets for the missing cards...?
wagashis: (I sure hope it does)

He really had very little on him-- I saw no sign of what he acquired while with us, either.

[so it's definitely possible someone has his shit.]

Perhaps there were things he left behind when going out, though.
leaberator: (i want ice cream)

[ ah. there's a second of hesitation, before he takes out a piece of paper shirasu might find familiar ]

I'm the one who's got that.

Is it something you found after his death, then, or...?
leaberator: (huHUM)

[personal profile] leaberator 2019-06-29 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
He gave it to me the day he got it.
wagashis: (road work ahead?)

[personal profile] wagashis 2019-06-29 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
He did what.

[hisoka??]

You're certain it's legitimate?
wagashis: (I sure hope it does)

[personal profile] wagashis 2019-06-29 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Did he say anything about it...? It seemed like the sort of thing he would want to hold on to.

[it's a little hard to just believe that he. handed it off immediately.

but then, hisoka is weird.]
leaberator: (looks like i'm going to liar's jail)

[personal profile] leaberator 2019-06-29 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
He told me what it did. I thought it was weird, too, but...

[ he waves a hand, vaguely, quoting: ]

"No one knows what a wildcard will do until it's played". That was his explanation for it.
wagashis: (this is why mom doesn't love you)

[personal profile] wagashis 2019-06-29 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
...I suppose that does sound like him.

[why the Fuck is he like that.]
