CHAPTER SEVEN ; TRIAL

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 7 - WEEK 711 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. The garden is strangely silent and there are no snacks today...it seems as though you'll be left to your own devices. Welcome to your trial post!

There was a wish made upon the well not long after the last trial, asking for a better ending for everyone involved- you might already be aware of it, but if not then the well's answer was thus: there is no better way.

[ so you know what well, you can take your half answers and stuff it. we're fighting destiny and all that, rah rah overarching abyss plot threads. ]

We took that to mean it meant of the endings that have already been seen or written of prior.

[ therefore: ]

The only thing left to do is to see whether or not this works.

[concasse]

... Did it?

[HMPH]

That's fine, I never gave a shit about that well anyway.

We'll just do this our own way, then.

[Pirates aren't good at taking no for an answer]

[axilium]

Yup. The Crafters said that was it, the dead also said that was it, so... this is what we've got now.

[nivation]

... We will be better than the well.

[ She thinks they all have the capability to make many mistakes here, but her last strand of hope is hanging on it. ]
