FOURTH TRIAL

[bathymetric]

[ Well! That's sure something, isn't it? There may or may not be a lot of you excited to get down to business, but Jones does eventually move to collect you all and bring you to the theatre. It's a familiar routine by now, perhaps even comfortingly so given the irregularities of this particular killing.

Two of you gone this week. The elevator is started to feel downright spacious, don't you think?

A shanty, as usual, echoes from the crew of the Dutchman as you enter. The room is the same as it has ever been before you as the elevator settles into position. ]

To yer positions, passengers. Chins up.

[ Three more podiums claimed by the rust and wear.

You have your evidence, and you're going to need it before long. The music outside dies down.

Welcome to your fourth trial. ]

Do you think it possible that whoever attacked Albedo simply knocked him out and left him under it while they dealt with Sara?

[scythegun]

I think that's possible, ja. But I don't think we can say that for certain... Would they have even known that would kill him? Frankly, I didn't know that such a thing would be powerful enough to... crush someone like that.

[jibunwo]

In simply establishing a timeline of events, it's irrelevant if they knew or not. But I'm theorizing they knocked him out and he was beneath it by chance.

[scythegun]

Fair enough. That does seem to fit the timeline.
