Week Five: Trial

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!

AFTERMATH;
Shess, Axel, Kaoru, and Xion in particular will find themselves called toward the blackness, their most negative and repulsive emotions brought to the forefront of their mind. Every vice of hatred, jealousy, contempt, beckoning them as their hearts are vulnerable without their partners -
Until a single light seems to be cast from above, brought into the very center of the darkness, and when the blinding nature of it clears, the bodies of the victims are gone, leaving only Sol and Lune. A light encases all on the main platform, protecting them from further temptation until the glow dims into nothing.
Sol speaks next:]
Without bonds, hearts are vulnerable to a great darkness. But there's always a light within reach. Your actions have ensured this light will save more of your own this week.
[Lune speaks up as well, even though the usual smiling tone of his voice isn't as present.]
Our time together becomes more limited with each day that passes. Will you cherish each moment? Even as not all are meant to shine - I hope that you will share your lives with others.
[Axel and Shess are now partnered. Xion and Kaoru are now partnered. With that, both NPCs take their leave, but the lanterns continue to float peacefully if others wish to speak with them.
Peace returns to the village, if only for so long.]
