TRIAL IV

[lesmodsalouette]

Trial

Another Saturday, but this Saturday is your last Saturday. If everything holds, if everything works out. After all you've been through, are you capable of being an optimist? The carnival calls regardless, furniture arranged around as they always are with banquet table and pit in the middle.

This week's new offerings are: a fluffy loaf of a certain type of rye bread, a hearty beef stew and an assortment of fresh pies with candied fruit and cream.

For the last time, find out who killed two of your own: G'raha Tia and Sariel.

(( OOC: Welcome to your first trial! You'll have 7 hours (until 8 PM EDT/5 PM PDT) to vote one (1) person guilty of murder. As this is scapegoat style, a correct vote is not necessary. Please remember to vote unless otherwise discussed with the mods, as that is our AC for this game ))

solarium

[simulacres]

After finding... [ a deep breath to push the image burned in her mind. ] after finding G'raha in the observatory, I spent most of my time in the solarium.

[ another deep breath. ]

On the way down from the second floor, I saw a very bloody trail coming from the solarium and up the stairs. It doesn't look like someone was dragged there, it looks more like it was dripping.

In the solarium itself it... well, it looked like a disaster zone, really. There was more blood on the floor and also splattered across the room. Some of the bigger blood splatters were still kind of wet, so I wonder if the fight had been recent. It also looked like it would have all come from one person. On top of that, there was a lot of furniture thrown across the room.

Also, the window that overlooks the gardens was shattered. It looks like it was shattered outwards, and there was a bloodstain on the um, balustrade outside. [ and then from her pocket, she'll take out two somethings: a set of black and white strands and some chestnut brown feathers. ] I found both of these by the window. These black and white strands I found caught on the window, while the feathers I found on the floor.

[ and she'll go back to richard's side with their stupid pet top hat that looks a bit worse than usual. ]

[baebladie]

...Black and white strands?

[ Hair strands?? ]

[simulacres]

I think so.

[ after listening to saber, she has the suspicion that they might be the same. she'll hand them out to him. ]

You can compare them if you want.

[baebladie]

[ Returning from examination... ]

...They're hair strands.

Natural. I think they're the same as the other ones.

[simulacres]

Black and white hair... well, that's good to keep in mind. Thank you.

The dripping and blood sounds like it would have been Sariel, post amputation. Presumably, he was escaping whoever did that, went into the solarium, and ended up thrown through the window into the garden.

He had a gunshot wound to the head, possibly from Sousuke's trap, correct?

[simulacres]

Sousuke's trap was supposed to only cause minor injuries and keep people from moving around in the garden, so no. Though it's possible that it could have finished Sariel off since he was probably already weakened...

[whileaway]

Hm, I'll take your word for that. Firearms aren't my forte, trap ones or otherwise.
