murdermanor | WEEK 3

week three 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, as long as you are accompanied by a partner.

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.

At 7 PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. Players will be escorted by the Hostess to the ballroom, where dinner and wine will be served until 10 PM, at which point players will be required to return to their wings in groups with their wingmates and will be locked in their bedrooms until 8:30 AM the following morning.]

So if we don't vote we get to go home?

[Poland has selective listening skills.]

I don't know?!

( Why is this happening. )

So then why are we even bothering with this, I want to go home!

( And after Susan's called Spain out on it, )

Exceptshemightstillbeintheroom.

...no way.

[Poland why are your feet moving in the direction of the smoking room after hearing that.]

( Grabbing Poland. Nostoppolandcomeback. )

S-spain knock it off--!! [HE IS GETTING TO THAT DOOR]

If you go in now you won't be able to leave until to cast a vote.

[Poland please!!!]

What I'm always wrong when I vote anyways who cares?

[screaming internally]

J-just! ...If you have to go look, make sure you change your vote before the end of the trial.

If that's true, then we must go check! We cannot just leave her there!

Quick go look! [Go May go, Poland will distract Spain he can't get both of us!!!]

W-we have to wait to check until we know who to vote for.

If she is still alive, then waiting for a second longer could be fatal! We can change our vote, yes? Then let us vote for someone random and change it later!

I--I suppose that's true...

She is... her spirit still remains within these walls!

[ Rapture lifts both her arms up, her voice with it's usual spooky-sounding reserve. Like she isn't going to cash in on this. ]

Can't you feel her presence?

Her ghost was in the foyer!

( NO THIS IS TERRIBLE )

[ Queen Rapture, the brilliant genius has done it again. She's definitely going to drag this one on for some time. Her arms lower only a bit, but she seems to be very dire about this. ]

Her presence is stuck forever in this house. Doomed to live out the afterlife as a means to seek a way out for her mistake, she's trapped forever within these walls!

Is anyone here a priest...?

You don't have to worry. I was once possessed by Harry Houdini, so I've handled things like this before!

No offense, Miss Rapture, but I'm not sure about trusting someone who has a history of being possessed...

[THAT SEEMS LEGIT.]

Do you think—? Someone should go check, in that case...! [Kaoru seems hesitant, though.]

If she's gone, then it's not the body we have to worry about! It's her spirit, forever lurking these hallways, seeking solace... or possibly... revenge!

Then we will need an exorcist... [AND WAIT] It would still be improper to leave the body there as well, though it... surely is not in good condition if it is still present.

Thankfully, I've handled spirits before! There's not much I can do without my regular items here, but... salt and sage may be all we need. At least as a means to stave her spirit off for some time.

Wouldn't we be able to smell it though? It's been a week, you'd think that it'd at least detectable.
