THIRD TRIAL

Trial III


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:

"After the fiasco somebody I won't name caused yesterday, I'm glad to see someone else had the courage to do what was needed. This time it's a valid murder. To the culprit: I wish you good luck, darling. Let's see you get away with this murder."

Someone seems to be pleased, unfortunately. Anything that makes the Lady pleased can't be good, can it?

Let the trial for the death of Olivert Reise Arnor and Sirius 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!]

That's what I was thinking as well, though I believe Zangetsu confirmed that Gelu users can't simply melt the ice at will. In that case, ice most likely would have been left behind.

They could have removed it from the scene. They did go to burn evidence literally right after, so melting it and having the remnants dry quickly would have been easily achievable.

That's a good point. Perhaps they didn't want it known that Gelu was involved.

[ He’s dozing on the stage, but when he hears his name he sits up ] Yeah, that’s correct.
