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!]

...Perhaps the killer had Sanguis. They could have stabbed her, and I assume they would've been able to drain the blood from her body after making physical contact with it.

Though like you said, it also doesn't answer how she would have ended up in the tank.

[reanbeans]

What do we know about Lux, out of curiosity? Besides that it can burn.

[raventhaw]

From what I recall, it also entails honing light into blades.

[pr159]

[ LOOKS TOWARD SOMEONE IN PARTICULAR do you want to explain how this works pal ]

[youspinmeknightround]

Yeah, it does. The light can become a sword, and also daggers - those can be controlled telepathically. It can also make regular light without blades. That, and it does singe what comes in contact with it. [he lifts the edge of the cape he wears, which is a little bit singed] I tried using it on this to cut out a bandage, but this was the result.

[moonfang]

Whaaaat? That’s so cool... so unfair.

[youspinmeknightround]

[he just chuckles awkwardly at that... he's not used to others being envious of him, you see]

It's technically more hot than cool, though.

[reanbeans]

[ Hm... ]

And there was a knife that the killer placed in her that could count as a blade.

So maybe if the killer honed light into the knife and stabbed it into her at some point, it could explain there not being much blood? If it had burned a little.

It might have even been enough to knock her out so that the killer could carry her and place her into the fish tank.

[youspinmeknightround]

So you think the killer cauterized the wound, then placed a regular knife inside to disguise that fact? Lux blades don't become metal, for the record.

[reanbeans]

I think it was used like that, yes.
