THIRD TRIAL

[bathymetric]

[ Two bodies this week. As a result, it's a little longer before Mayor Fontaine's voice calls out over the loudspeakers. ]

All right, that'll do, all of you. Get to the bathyspheres. Trial time.

[ There's fewer bathyspheres this week, aren't there? It's starting to get really noticeable. One by one, alone or in pairs, you descend into the depths. The bottom of the seafloor, a place no human life was meant to travel to unassisted. It's dark, until it isn't, the same bio-luminescent slugs as before lighting up the area and revealing the great glass dome in which the trial takes place.

Within, three more podiums have gone dark. They remain empty as you all gather around into the circle.

The projector clicks on, and you see the silhouette of Mayor Fontaine above you. ]

We all know why we're here. Florida Man and Cryptobro got themselves got. Up to you to figure out who did it, or... well, you know by now.

[ Welcome to your third trial. ]

Comments

[vholran]

[ Vholran shifts at the last minute to prevent a literal disarming, but after being shocked by Jonathan, he doesn't have time to prevent Gaius from hitting his blade out of his hands.

Though, by now all of this fighting does probably get him to put one knee on the ground. He might be a little more susceptible to regular attacks now without having his usual boosts...which sucks. ]

[giddyundertaker]

[ Perfect. The Undertaker will jab him in the back with the blunt end of his spear, aiming to knock him down. ]

[howveryglib]

[...yeah alright]

Someone get his sword.

[he's going to try and get behind him to push him down to the ground.]
