week 4 - trial

week four 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 your incentive was a rare artifact, said to be lost forever. The question is if you would kill over it. You seem to value a lot of collectibles, judging by you room. Though I sincerely hope you aren't the murderer.

[Because she wants a soap sculpture carved into the shape of a sarcophagus.]

This isn't the first time a magical artifact has been offered as a prize, however. It happened last week too, remember? I won't deny something of a hoarding tendency, but I collect things to fix them up and improve their value. It's unfortunate if I forget about something I have, but I try to use what I've stashed. [alice totally witnessed this.] This stub is interesting, but right now, I have no idea what I could make out of it. Not to mention that mistletoe is probably best infused with a weapon, but I make dolls and accessories, I'm no blacksmith.

[She's treating it pretty technically, if that means anything.]

[allice]

So, what you're saying is it wouldn't be worth killing over in your opinion.

[aozaki]

I'd buy it if I saw it back home, but no, there's no point killing over it. It's interesting enough to know it exists for real, but I don't need something that can kill a god.

[she already has something else, ha ha.]
