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.

[Your local suddenly bumbling blind gremlin here. So he doesn't squint. Instead:]

But they never said what kind of test it was!

[keydomhearts]

It says a test to identify. What kinds of tests would identify someone?

[anonnomnomnom]

Maybe there's knowledge that only the real one would know. Like, the answer to the test is to refuse the test!

[That's probably not it.]

[keydomhearts]

Hmm. It would have to be something they would know from when he was little, right? Maybe an allergy?

[anonnomnomnom]

An allergy to tests...?

[He's totally thinking hard about this. Maybe. Maybe??]

Hmm. Is it because the test is for the "true" heir, but they're looking for the "rightful" one?

[Word... play...?]

[keydomhearts]

[ Don't come at him with word play. Making a face. ]

Want to give it a try?

[anonnomnomnom]

I don't mind!

[If anyone else wants to save him from being double-blinded or whatever please jump in.]

[cryosurgeon]

If it's a test to identify someone, there are paternity tests. But why would the man who agreed to it be discredited immediately?

[keydomhearts]

Maybe the heir can't take the test? Allergy to the metal or maybe seeing blood makes him faint?

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Up near the ceiling, Vinea is making frustrated sounds.]

[keydomhearts]

[ KAREN GET THE FUCK DOWN FROM THE CEILING ]

[anonnomnomnom]

Why does she sound so far away? Did I start losing my hearing, too?

[He's tilting his head with some bemusement.]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[NO??? SHE LIKES IT UP HERE, IT'S NICE AND DISTANT FROM BLINDED ANON]

[cryosurgeon]

Seeing blood....

[Suddenly his eyes widen.]

I... I think I know!
