CHAPTER FIVE ; TRIAL

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 5 - WEEK 523 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. Throughout today's trial, cookies and cakes will be served as your trial snacks, along with hot cocoa...served in sippycups. 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!

Knowing us, we probably did...

[concasse]

Yeah, our track record is fuckin' shit.

[Sigh]

... Dagger's probably our best bet, though. I agree with that.

[finethanks]

[He comes back after examining Reyna's body looking like he's about a few seconds from passing out with how white he is. He's not...used to this...!!]

It appears that the dagger had to have been used to kill Reyna-chan, as well as cause her smaller injuries. It would be damning to see who has used it.

[concasse]

Alright, at least we know what we'll use for the kit, then.

[...]

Maybe take a quick seat, Eichi.

[Please don't pass out]

[finethanks]

I'll be fine, so please don't worry for my sake. There was just... quite a bit of ink, and knowing what that means...

[But he'll definitely sit down or else he's going to, so he'll be in a chair for a moment, thanks.]

[concasse]

What color was the ink?

[AND GOOD, YES. SIT]

[finethanks]

Crimson. There wasn't any other color in sight. She's missing a ring, as well.

[concasse]

[...]

While I doubt whoever killed her was stupid enough to keep that ring on them, might be good for everyone to turn out their pockets at some point.

[finethanks]

I agree. Ring or not, it may be beneficial to see what everyone has on them, anyway.
