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!]

Seriously? We don't tell you what we have now or... what, you'll dismiss all the evidence we do have just because you think it's too easy?

I know we've been looking for culprits this whole time, but this is starting to feel like a witch hunt.

I am not against knowing everyone's powers here. That way they can't be used as effectively to hide a murder.

Exactly.

I think it's useful to know, I agree. I'm just not sure these are ideal conditions.

Even if the most likely person is a Lux-user, we already have a lead on who that could be. A lead that Dazai brought up earlier, and one that looked like it started to pan out after we got our hands on those clothes.

See, I agree with you fully. We have a reasonable guess at who the culprit is.

The thing is, I want everyone's statements on record before the end of the trial. In the heat of the moment, it's harder for people to come up with believable lies. So this is a good time to sort out everyone's powers, as well as to see who is lying.
