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.

[We have a mammal, a bug...]

A bird? Reptile?

[Fish is a probable no.]

[purrtagonist]

No feathers, no claw marks.

[. . .]

Then again, if it's an animal, why does it need to use a sword?

[tacticalespionageaction]

[oh yeah there's that.]

Maybe it never "showed" itself, just kept possessing someone else.

[...]

Could be it doesn't even have the weaponry itself.

[purrtagonist]

It must not, if it had to borrow Owain's sword to attack Shirou.

[relentlesslyonwards]

Isn't it possible they just did that to frame Owain, though?

[purrtagonist]

That's probably part of it, yeah.

[wrongtiming]

Why him, though? Just because he had a sword, and it’d be easy...?

[purrtagonist]

That's Owain's theory, but--

[who knows if it's true]

[moonlightbeast]

...

Tengu, maybe?

[tacticalespionageaction]

Tengu, huh? Of Japanese mythology?

[That's about as far as his knowledge goes.]

[moonlightbeast]

Yeah! They even fight with swords, if I'm remembering correctly.
