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. ]

Well, yeah.

But how can we get them to transform here?

[ahelpingpaw]

Couldn't we not do that? That'd be way too dangerous.

[By the sounds of all this Albedo wasn't a novice at fighting, at all. There may be many more fighters here but clearly someone transforming here like it may have happened would be incredibly dangerous]

[scouserer]

For once, I agree in that we shouldn't be provokin' people. Beyond the tenuous correlation to hunger and whatever happened last night...there's nothing else we know about this.

[paucipan]

Yeah, this seems like a really bad idea.

[like last time we had to do something with this it was allenby??? do we want a repeat of that]

[ltcommandroid]

It would be much too dangerous.

[like he might be okay but it sounds like he is the only one]

[sivard]

How do we find the killer without that? It sounds like pretty important evidence.

[ltcommandroid]

I believe it would be wiser to exhaust all other possibilities before attempting to trigger an attack in the courtroom.

[with all these fleshy people!]

We could begin by checking for blood or other physical evidence, as Constantine suggested.

[sivard]

...right. That's a good point.

[ahelpingpaw]

It is! It'd be really important evidence, but you know what happened with Albedo. He even lost a hand. We can't go risking anyone here getting maimed like that. There's gotta be other ways to solve this.

[Or at least he hopes so]

[cethflayn]

[Wow Flayn hates this!!]

We - we ought not do that, what if...

[What if more cw: gore warnings happen]
