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.

...That still doesn't make sense. Even if they believed that Akira wasn't the Seeker, he'd proven to most of us that he was. Unless the real seeker died, there would be no reason to suspect him.

So we still end up with the problem that they somehow knew who the Seeker was.

[she shakes her head.]

Why would the seeker reveal himself so publicly?

Our hope was that they believed Akira was the Seeker, but that was a risk Akira took without asking anyone. [pointedly]

And now, suspiciously, everyone targeted points at him.

The only reason he's suspicious at all is because the Seeker died, though. The fact was, he exposed a member of the Mafia, so there wasn't any reason to believe he wasn't the Seeker, beyond the fact that he threw himself into danger by revealing himself, and even that could be explained by him knowing something the rest of us don't.

[justfists]

... Exactly.

It would prove he knew who the seeker was.
