WEEK 3 - TRIAL

[foundationmods]

TRIAL

The morning seemed so far away yesterday - yet, it also seems too soon when morning comes and you are all yet again ushered to the third floor by The Lady. The Captain is there, in all of his....wait, no, he's asleep.

The doors close, and...nothing happens. There's still the box labeled 'VOTES' in his lap on the couch, but...

On the table is a letter, that reads 'Only one person may be voted for execution this week. Please figure out who that will be during the time limit.'

As you finish reading that, music begins to play in the room...


VICTIM: SHIROU EMIYA, HIMEKO INABA, AND MUNEHISA IWAI

23 GUESTS REMAIN.

I didn't arrive with it, but I requested it from the Staff, after seeing the sword that Iwai had gotten. I was curious if they could even provide it, but they managed it.

I used it in the ski area that day in the open to practice with it, though I only spoke to Cinque, Iwai, Gerome, Tsumugi, and Makoto about it.

[files that knowledge away for later]

Okay. Thank you.

And lastly: do you know why someone might want to frame you, assuming that they are?

[swordhandled]

My idea is that the Levin Sword is a unique enough weapon that it could only tie to me. While Mystletainn is a legendary sword, it and my Killing Edge, both have blades that aren't rather distinct and aren't capable of using magic at all. They're simple blades, used for stabbing.

[purrtagonist]

Mmm.

And if that's true, then whoever is framing you-- if you are being framed-- would have to at least known in advance what the Levin Sword could do.

So that's Cinque, Iwai, Gerome, Tsumugi, and Makoto.

What about Cynthia-san? Does she know?

[swordhandled]

That's true. My cousin didn't see me use it, but I told her about it when I was offering sword lessons on Monday.

Though Gerome and Cynthia aren't trained to use swords.

[purrtagonist]

I don't know if skill with a sword actually matters when a possessed monster is doing the killing.

Thanks for answering my questions, Owain.

[swordhandled]

No problem.
