Fourth Trial
[ After the evidence (and what a large batch of evidence it is, this time) has been gathered up, after actually patiently waiting a longer time than usual to make sure everything's been grabbed, the speakers over New Rapture crackle to life. ]
Time's up, everyone. You know where to go.
[ The lower number of bathyspheres, as you descend, is starting to become really notable, isn't it? The descent is the same as ever, lower and lower into the sea. The bioluminescence of those slugs on the ocean floor is almost brighter today, somehow, and some of them have even crawled up the cliff face around you as you pass them.
The dome approaches, slowly as ever, gleaming red in the darkness. The bathyspheres land in a row, doors opening one by one to reveal the familiar sight of the trial room, three more podiums now darkened. ]
Take your places, ladies and gentlemen. You've got a doozy of a situation to discuss. Ass Man and Silver Fox are dead. You know what happens if you can't figure out whodunnit.

Are you really that generous? Or did you actually like me that much?
no subject
I wouldn't call it generous. Though I won't deny I've grown fond of our conversations.
I'm a demon, Seo Dawon. This sort of thing is what we do – everything has its price. And so long as that payment is paid in full, we'll do just about anything in return. Circumstances aside, this really is no different. You knew the risks. You were willing to try. That's all.

Well, I'm really not a Demon King. But I'll never turn down a compliment. It makes me a bit curious though: where will you go from here?
