THIRD TRIAL
If you have time for a grisly operation like that, I think you've had all the time you need to gather evidence. Please proceed to the door to the trial room elevator as quickly as possible.
[ Once you arrive, it's the same song and dance as the last two weeks. Angel helps you all get through the vault door and into the elevator, and watches as you all make the slow descent to the dome below. Standing in the elevator is more than a comfortable fit now, even for the largest among you. A few more of you lost and there'll be room enough to pace in here.
But maybe you don't want to think about that.
The dome of the trial room is the same as it's been, the only change the dull red glow coming from the two newly-unoccupied podiums. The screens above flick on, and lower down to make an address. ]
You know the score by now. Find Seteth's killer and you can all go free. Fool them all, killer, and you'll have your life and your reward. Other than that, whatever happens here is between all of you. Call for me if you need anything.
[ The screens rise again, leaving you here.
Welcome to your third trial. ]

[ Her fist trembles on the podium. ]
This...this psycho may be calling us lab rats, but we don't have to act like it! We don't have to rip each other apart! Why can't you understand that?!
no subject
[ She's staring at the rock in her hand, grateful that she didn't have to lunge very far to take it (or the sword, for that matter). She hopes it isn't any more scuffed than it already is; morbid as it is to hold it in her hand like this, after she was so hesitant to take it earlier, this is Seteth's heart. It deserves better than to fall to the ground with a clatter. ]
I don't think Seteth would have wanted this, Rhea.
no subject
[It's... like Rhea's not even there anymore. It's instinct. Anger. Hate. Sadness. Just plain hopelessness.]
Even if that man killed Seteth for other reasons--!
no subject
[ Well, Della's still going to yell right back! ]
Of course it wasn't personal. Of course it was wrapped up in his own, whatever-they-are reasons. That's what everyone, everyone is like here. You included! You can be mad, you can cry, you can scream all you want. But stop, and think, and consider for a moment that this could be the wrong course of action!
