FINAL TRIAL

TRIAL

After a very, very long six weeks, it has finally come. The last time everyone will need to trudge up those stairs and meet in the master suite. It's do or die time, and hopefully everyone knows what needs to be done by now.

As soon as the guests walk into the room, they will be able to smell the food that the chef has provided: duck l'orange, served up on a nice platter. Eat up everyone!

There are a few unexpected guests this time. A large group of the rats is here, and they show up in a swarm as they carry Gabe into the room, much like how they had carted him off to the Child Daycare last night. Once he is deposited in the room, Gabe will also stand up and remain there, crossing his arm and looking a bit standoffish.

They're not the only unexpected faces around here, though...

What kind of missions did they make you do back before we came?

[ He's trying to gauge just how awful returning with the others would play out for Anthy. ]

[ There's not much point in dancing around it when those in the room who'd been on missions with her before already know. ]

I was there for others to use the swords inside me, mostly; or if they just needed a passive presence who wouldn't die.

[ There were other things occasionally, but she'd gotten the impression that they didn't like having her play an active role that they couldn't readily control. Which was nothing new, really. In a way, it had been nice to know that they were afraid of her. ]

The swords in--

[ Kohaku starts saying this in surprise, but then he catches himself and just shrugs. ]

I guess we've seen weirder. Does it hurt you?

[rosebridled]

[ A slight shrug. ]

Not much more than leaving them in.
