RECORDING 12: THE FOURTH TRIAL.

[foundationmods]

The worst has happened... and now you're all here, in the living room where all the trials so far have taken place. As all of you enter, the Vessels are there - Flayn in her darkly pious glory, and Haku, ever the perfect shadow at her side.

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 Vessels...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: Ango Sakaguchi
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 1

WEEK 4 VOTING

His power is based upon language. The primary source of the sudden burst of aggression should be coming from that character there.

[She points to the 敵 character.]

That translates into "enemy". I believe its purpose should be clear.

[He makes a sound of contempt, all the hostility is just building into a major case of: "Actually fuck this guy"]

Rather die than be killed I see.

[white_camellia]

That appears to be his plan, yes. For now, focus on the seal characters. They should be what is keeping us trapped between all these books.

[zweivoltage]

I suppose we do need to save him from himself so he can face punishment.

Point them to me.

[white_camellia]

Understood. Follow my lead, then.

[Yeah, she will be doing her part to try to cut any of the 封 kanji she sees, and directing Ky to any ones she can't easily get to.]

Just be careful. We do not want a repeat of what happened to the doctor.

[zweivoltage]

[He takes a breath and starts aiming bolts of electricity at the Kanji she's gesturing at, being surprisingly accurate]

[finalring]

Nanaka, do you have any idea how to stop him? We can't-- we can't let the vessel kill him. There has to be a way to deactivate his powers!

[white_camellia]

The only thing I can think of is to find some way to damage the characters themselves. As long as they are exerting power, they should still exist, and at the same time, it should be possible to disrupt them.

To do that, we need to get out of this space, however. The first step should be to look for the seals. They should look like the second-last character that showed up.

[finalring]

I-- I can't do anything then. Can they be damaged by normal weapons?

[ he only has a gun on himself?????????????? ]

[white_camellia]

To be honest, I have no idea.

[Look, this isn't a kind of magic she's had to deal with before?]
