week 1 - trial

[productions]

week one trial



[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go. The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.]

Does this autopsy report cover everything regarding the state of the body or only what has already been discovered?

[productions]

Only the very basics, dear, but everything on it is the truth.

[mostlymarried]

Then I'll be blunt; is there any worth bringing the corpse inside this room?

[productions]

There may be, but I can't tell you one way or another.

[mostlymarried]

[...sigh.]

...It should be brought then.

[Belarus returns a few minutes later carrying Lydia in her arms; she sets her down face up on the table bearing the autopsy report.]
