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. Welcome to your 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 Danielle (entrappings), 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

... We have two people in needs of partners—Veronica and Natsuo. If there's someone who's able to link partners together, like they did with Jae-ha and Sousei...

[disilluded]

We know too little about them. What if they are only able to link a single pair per week?

[...]

We are gambling with lives here.

[axilium]

Haven't we always been? Anyway, I doubt we'll be able to tie.

[disilluded]

[A pained expression flashes across his face.

THE INCOMPETENCE...]

... That is a problem as well. One single vote off, and the plan is thrown off.

[finethanks]

You'd have to count on them being able to do so. There are a number of ways this could go wrong, you know? Akechi-kun or that girl could have that ability, or it may have a restriction...!

[axilium]

I'm not saying it's the best option. I don't think we'll even succeed at tying if we tried, anyway.

[alchemenace]

The restriction on that is the amount of ink collected. From what I gathered from my conversation with Dragon, the extra ink Sharpay generated was because she accomplished her objective. If no one did that this week...

[ well. ]
