week five: trial

Week Five: Trial
18 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, Shirasu, Lili, Miki and Minato'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.

"Nine hours. Don't forget."

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 fifth 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!

[After examining Shirasu's body and before running off with Kara and Shess, Emma is addressing the rest of the room.]

So... Probably the most notable thing about Shirasu's body is that he had two stab wounds. There was one in his abdomen, a little bit off to the side, and one in his chest. It looks like the one in his chest went into his heart, so that's probably what killed him. Both of the stab wounds seemed kind of messy, like somebody fucked with them afterwards to hide what kind of weapon they used to kill him, but I think it's safe to say it was some kind of sword. Both stab wounds were the same size, so they were probably caused by the same weapon. There were also random cuts everywhere on him, so it looks like there was definitely a struggle.

I found a leaf in his hair... It looks like it came somewhere from the village. Also, there were parts of a broken mask under his clothes. [And she holds them up for everyone to see!] His legs weren't broken, and he had water on him, but it wasn't sea water. I think that's all.

The house he was in locked from the outside. He must've managed to slip past when they came in, since they wouldn't have expected him to have two working legs, and they caught him after.

Lune and Sol have given out tasks for that kind of thing before. Maybe someone did it for him.

I wonder who would do something so wasteful.

[ wow saix ]

You can do favors for Sol and Lune for healing.

I suppose they're obligated to help anyone who asks, no matter how despicable their actions.

His legs weren't broken?

[ This is somehow the most alarming part of all of this. ]
foodbin: (pic#13146168)

[personal profile] foodbin 2019-07-13 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I think I would have noticed.
forefall: (a funereal urn awaiting a few tears)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-07-13 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that's... The whole point of breaking his legs was so...

[ He couldn't trouble others. He'd be less of a target? Mostly, so he couldn't go after people again. Why? ]

Well, if whoever did it is still alive and wants to speak up, I'd like to ask them that too.
