[CONTINUE + 4] week 1 || act: indict

[foundationmods]

[Saturday dawns, bright and early again. No one comes to the Inn, but you feel compelled to go to the Core anyway.

It's as if you're forced to. As if....it's inescapable. Puppets, forced to dance where their strings lead.

You make the walk past everything, until you are directly in the Core, where some kind of whitish, rainbow-gleaming liquid can be seen below.

In this area, you are led to a wider platform that is still open to the liquid before, with the handrails in place - where there are some seats around, and....surrounded by a sea of entirely gray faces, no Monsters to be seen.

This...for all of you, it is a familiar sight.

It is a trial location.

You are here to find the killer...and convict one of your own, in a murder that makes no sense.

But you have no choice.

You can only forge ahead....and try to find out the truth.]

I am aware of that more than anyone else. And that is why, the first step to bringing you down, is giving you definition and form. A title, if you will. Or a label.

[ As an aside, to her: ]

...It seemed to be rather concerned about us learning its name.

It does make me wonder, about the possible identity of 'who' this creature is.

[ Which he did bring up in the meeting, actually. ]

Even the curse in the Winchester House had a name. For no name to show up at the time means that most likely, either the name no longer exists, or is inherently unknowable.

To put it another way, there is possibility that it is a being that exists by virtue of being impossible to define. So then, what would happen to such a being, were it to be properly labelled and cataloged?

If my theory is correct, this is another tool we can use.

For now, this tactic worked well. But bear in mind for the future, the day may come when we need to know it's true name.
