PROLOGUE : TRIAL

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... PROLOGUE - WEEK 037 Narrators Remain ; Wakey wakey, naughty murder children. It's a lovely Saturday, after all. Breakfast is served piping hot at its usual time and all of the evidence has been removed from the scenes of yesterday. No matter how you choose to spent your morning though, the clock will begin to chime the moment both hands reach the large, ornate twelve. Before your eyes materializes a door...but not just any door. Unlike the door leading to the festival, this door sits primly and properly right in front of the foyer. Whether you exit the castle on your own or you feel a friendly, invisible push, you begin to walk under an arc of wisterias. Behind you, the clock continues to chime with every step you take. By the time the time the clock strikes twelve, you've entered a beautiful garden. In front of you is a long table, 19 seats on each side. Around the garden are several glass cases containing evidence collected yesterday. As noon intensifies on the sun-shaped clock, you'll find Dragon at the head of the table, a glass-covered rose near her right hand. Tick tock, Narrators. You have nine hours to deliberate. Welcome to your first trial post! Please see here for the OOC summary of events from yesterday's investigation. In addition, please be sure to vote! Please see the voting page on how to vote, as we will have two special things to vote for. Voting will close at 9pm EST/6pm PST! If you have any questions, please ask on our Discord server or ping us on plurk. Please direct pings for the NPC to Dana (decals), as she will be taking point for today's NPC, and the moderator team will be on deck for all other questions. full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

I can't speak for any of the others, but in my case, the last thing I remember before I woke up out there was being in my room.

[and she looks REALLY unhappy about it]

I was in there after curfew — whoever moved me did so after we were meant to be locked in.

[discardia]

Had you already gone to bed?

[toughchoices]

[She nods.]

Getting to sleep wasn't easy last night, but we drifted off at some point. I'm not sure exactly what time, though.

[concasse]

Neh, Reyna-chan, you got anyone who could coordinate with your story?

[toughchoices]

Of course I do. My roommate was there.

[toriiiiiiii come confirm reyna's alibi]

[holybind]

Yours truly was also there! We spent the whole night together till brown eyes here got ghosted away!

[toughchoices]

[she's going to take a swing at him]

Do you have to say it like that?!

[concasse]

[Reyna-chan he loves and accepts you with all of his heart








But your tastes are trash.]

[toughchoices]

[IT'S NOT LIKE THAT]

[holybind]

[ jumps out of the way thoroughly amused, absolutely worth it ]

[toughchoices]

[you're on her shit list, zelos]

[resumed]

[Just. A deadeyed stare.

He points at his eyes, he points at Zelos, and he points at his eyes again.

He's watching you, Zelos.]

[holybind]

[ jeez this crowd!! ]

[londonstar]

We were both together, along with...him. [ just gonna point at zelos. he doesn't deserve to be named. ]

[toughchoices]

[Thanks, partner.

Also sorry about the visitor.]

[toughchoices]

[pretend she said "that night" not "last night" i'm dumb]

[spondulix]

Reyna, your dog...if someone attacked you, would it have attacked them? It seems quite protective of you, you know. And as far as I've heard, it was found around you when you were discovered.

[toughchoices]

He would have, yes. So I'd love to see if anyone has been bitten.

[thesettingsun]

Check for injuries?

...That would probably need to be a strip search, to be thorough, right? It'd bite your leg most likely.

[toughchoices]

People can roll up their pant legs or raise their skirts. They don't have to take it all off.

[Praetor Buzzkill is here to ruin everyone's stripping fun.]

[thesettingsun]

...While personally I think that dog is fully capable of leaping up and biting into your neck or arm, I guess that's more 'reasonable'...

[toughchoices]

Oh, he's capable.

[aurum is!! a good dog!! she is very proud of her murder dog]

But you're the one who said it - he would most likely bite your leg. He's trained to take people down before he goes for the head.

[to prevent her enemies from running away

why is reyna like this]
