WEEK 2 MINGLE - ARTEMISIA

[foundationmods]

Things had changed so rapidly in the past few days.

The loss of two of them hung over like a shroud, made even worse by the fact that an innocent person had been executed.

Was this....how the rest of the game was going to go...?🗈

....Even if it was, there wasn't much they could do now. Yuuko herself hasn't shown up in public since the trial, and while some have talked to her, she's been...subdued.

Did the trial hurt her just as much as them?

Regardless, the island is still beautiful, if deadly. Summer continues, beaming down on all of them, the waves of the sea warm and inviting.

But even if things look bleak...

They have something in their hands that will soon lead to the Truth, and the heart of this matter.

And in the air...lies a heavy sense that everything is about to change.

[It looks to be an ordinary wooden box that's one foot by one foot]

...Dead elephants - that's extremely specific. Though - I think I might have a use for this screaming box, probably not what our gifter was expecting.

[How innocuous. But then again, so was the flute]

Perhaps the ivory the flute is made of is of elephant origin? Which is... dumb. You don't need to kill an elephant to take the ivory. [though, given the size of elephants, that might be easiest....]

What do you plan to do with it?

[improbablenotimpossible]

Unfortunately, humans have a terrible habit of killing the entire animal just to get a small part of it in a blind hubris that nature is just there for them to conquer and abuse...

[His expression seems regretful?]

Though I hope the box didn't have such grisly origins as well. Given it can be heard outside the room, if we need to keep something secured... so if someone where to try to take it.

[Shadow laughs, but it's more of a dark chuckle than anything else] You don't have to tell me twice about the hubris of humans.

I see. So using it as something like an alarm?
