WEEK 3 - TRIAL

[productions]

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.]

The last week, someone argued the same thing against Miss Takami's early morning routine until it was proven otherwise. ...Of course, it is possible that they believed he would be motivated to accompany them and, when he failed to comply, they attacked.

It does seem an unlikely scenario, but then, I thought that about someone jumping out a window, too.

[Susan still doesn't believe that should be possible.]

Does that narrow it down at all, then? Someone who thought Dave might be inclined to trust them?

...I suppose Siren is his neighbor.

[Kaoru understands that the balance between too plain and too outlandish is a hard one to strike, especially after the last trial...]

Miss Siren and Miss Belarus are the least imposing physically-speaking, but Miss Siren is one of the most powerful contenders by way of her abilities. Mr. Altman would reasonably be the least harmful... Still, Miss Siren is in a very opportune location for carrying this out. I do not know if Mr. Strider was acquainted with any of the rest.

I can't say for anyone else but I'd never spoken to Dave before.
