RECORDING 6: THE SECOND TRIAL.

[foundationmods]

The worst has happened... and now you're all here, in the living room where you first met Todd. As all of you enter, the Vessel is there - Olympia, staring balefully at you in all of her robotic glory.

On one of the tables away from the center is a small enclosed box entitled 'VOTES', with slips of paper nearby and a pen. It's sufficiently away from what will be the 'main' action, but not enough to really give anyone complete privacy as they vote.

Once everyone is inside, the doors automatically shut and lock themselves, leaving you trapped in here with the Vessel...and each other.

One of you is a murderer...however, in this game, the guilty do not need to be voted out. As long as there are enough people voted out that matches the victims...then it will be accepted.

...But, can you really let someone get away with murder...?

The choice...is up to you.

VICTIM: JACK MORRISON
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 1

WEEK 2 VOTING

That's correct.

It is likely the culprit ran low on time, and has no access to proper elemental magic.

[zweivoltage]

It wouldn't take much time to rip a piece of paper into a lot of little shreds manually, it's such a minor detail but I keep tripping over this.

[impyroverished]

I don't believe in this magic business everyone keeps insisting about, but before I arrived to the Foundation I worked with a friend who said he's a mage. I always had the impression the things he did were very precise and had some sort of meaning behind them?

[Not that Emil saw any effect, but hey]

Maybe tearing it into just half was necessary for something.

[zweivoltage]

...Or if some of us are right, and this is accidental, they want to be caught while complying with the "Rules".

[boardreversal]

That's...

[He looks...kind of upset at that?]

It's bullshit in the first place that we'd have to vote for an accidental death, if that's the case...

[zweivoltage]

I agree completely. This is a farce designed to create nothing but misery.

[He rest his hand on his hip]

I don't believe from what we know of Mr. Morrison that he would want it this way if it is an accident. Unfortunately, we're for now forced to dance to their game until we figure some kind of loophole.

[boardreversal]

Right down to the magic symbol...

[He mutters that, but then shakes his head.]

There's got to be something...We can't stop thinking, even outside of the trials.

...For now, we've got to just focus on what's in front of us. Even if...
