RECORDING 6: THE SECOND TRIAL.

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

[A thoughtful hum.]

You said a greenman speeds up the growing process. But where did the seed come from?

Though, I suppose we were relying on your word for that.

[If we've got any more greenhouse guests with inventories, now is the time.]

There weren't any dangerous seeds in the greenhouse, I looked the first day it appeared.

And like I said, now that you're a suspect, we're going to have to take that with a few grains of salt, hmm?

You do. So investigate this and figure out who's at fault.

Isn't that what's already happening here? I can't say I'm especially interested in spending all day nailing down someone running away with their tail between their legs, but the ghosts of the house really are insistent on their afternoon programming.

Besides, you should probably try elaborating on what your greenmen can do. We do seem to have covered the summoning method quite thoroughly.

They can make plants grow more quickly. They're minor demons, they're not very powerful.

Are there other demons with a similar ability that are more powerful?

[Menos, adjuchas, vasto lorde....]

Of course, but the miasma makes it too risky to even summon a greenman, I wouldn't think of trying anything more powerful.

But what if the result is worth it?

[Some people may think that, but it's a really difficult decision, he has to admit. If it was up to him, he'd definitely say it's not worth trying, but that's because he's not the kind to take risks]

I know some of us here wanted to try making things grow for medicines and food and other reasons, so maybe...some would say it's worth a try?
