SECOND TRIAL

Trial II


From what you can see, all the lights in the opera house are turned on. Only when you enter and see the open doors that lead into the main theater, you can see that room's lights are currently turned off. It's very dark in there.

Like before, Rembrandt escorts everybody to the stage. In the dark you still can see the many blue-eyed things you may be getting used to. They're still very scared of Rembrandt, staying as far away from the assistant as possible. The stage is illuminated by the spotlights, the only light in this theater.

The Lady and Rembrandt are at their balcony. She stands up, addressing the group:

"This time we don't need any introductions, do we? Let's make this an interesting trial, just like last week. Give me a name! Who is the killer this time?"

Short and sweet. Will the Lady give you that offer later? Only time will tell.

Let the trial for the death of Lysithea von Ordelia begin.

[OOC NOTE: From the halfway point of the trial and onwards, you'll have the option to ask the masterminds for the chance to get a hint! Be warned, though: the price will involve some body horror for your character. Keep that in mind when deciding to use this option!]

Yup. These have water splotches randomly all over.

[looking at these thoughtfully.]

I wonder if the holes in the tank have something to do with the randomness. If it was splashing out from the little bullet holes while the murderer was drowning her...

It could be. I wonder if the culprit still smells like fish then~

I think everyone who was investigating the aquarium probably smells like fish now, but if the same is true of someone who wasn't there, that could definitely be a clue.

If so, it's unlikely they'd have had time to wash. Though the same scent would be on anyone who inspected the scene, too.

It might be a moot point with how many of us were in the aquarium, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to check.

There is time to shower and change clothes if you are willing to set it aside, so I think this is an unreliable idea for a check.

I’m also wondering if we should be looking for injuries, as well. I believe I told Rideaux, but I really cannot picture Lysithea being the sort of person to go down without a fight.

Looks like they are saying no to the smell, but we can check for new injuries on anyone.
