CHAPTER 1: TRIAL

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 1 - WEEK 134 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 Tiger at the head of the table, a glass-covered rose near her right hand. Tick tock, Narrators. You have nine hours to deliberate. Throughout today's trial, the snow continues to fall as it has all week, though it's gentle and soft. Instead of tea and crumpets, today's snack bar includes the makings for s'mores, including sharp metal skewers. A fire could be built, should anyone have anything flammable. Additionally, every now and then, the howls of a group of wolves will penetrate the silence that occasionally falls on the the group...and sometimes even in the heat of the moment.

Well, alright.

[Modesty is a human construct]

[faceripper]

[ thanks yams!! Fane nods approvingly, since thank you for not arguing with him, but if he's looking, he'll be quick. No scratches or cuts, I assume? ]

[okitactless]

[Some bruises because Yasu is a sparring maniac, and one small cut on his arm, but Yasusada happily points it out himself.]

Reyna-kun won our sparring match! [HE SOUNDS SO PROUD OF HER help him.

Nothing unusual besides that, though!]

[faceripper]

[ Oh, hm. Fane does look to Reyna. ]

Reyna? Can you confirm that?

[toughchoices]

That's true.

[She looks and sounds pretty proud of herself, also.]

But he put up a very good fight.

[okitactless]

Let's do it again in a few days, okay?

[NOT THE TIME YAMS]

[faceripper]

[ yall ]

Can you not? May I remind you that the very reason we're conducting the current investigation is to find a murderer? If you meat sacks keep turning up with injuries, i will make finding an injured culprit quite difficult!

[okitactless]

But I'm a sword...

[This is a terrible argument for literally anything BUT LISTEN DON'T YELL AT HIM FANE]

[faceripper]

You're... What?

[ WHAT??? ]

[okitactless]

...I'm a sword.
