TRIAL TWO
TRIAL
Once again, the investigations conclude -- though they're more ponderous this time, burdened by the number and knowledge of additional deaths, and the awareness that there's limited means of dealing with them -- and once again the ducks gather everyone at the back of the JojaMart along with Makima's wagon, Adela's quiet, the pile of evidence.
Everyone trundles into the loading bay, which isn't all that much livelier than before, penned in by stacks of shelves and crating; but at least it's functional, overly well-lit and there's tea to while away the time discussing murders and mayhem.
As the loading bay door slides closed, you're left with a wagonful of evidence, a double handful of murders and the knowledge that time is ticking down -- for everyone.
(( OOC: Welcome to trial: the sequel! You'll have 7 hours (until 8 PM EST/5 PM PST) 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. ))

Is there ... Um, do you know why it is only a few people seem to be able to leave at night? Or what that strange sound and ... I don't know, pressure are?
[ mainly because he wants to check on that before any further examination of beelzebub's condition, as a just in case. ]

I could make a guess, but it would only be that, a guess.

Beelzebub seemed really out of it when we found him, and ... maybe that's just because of whatever hit him on the head, but I just wanted to try to rule out anything weird about what might have happened overnight first. So ... a guess is fine.
[ she's doing her best...? ]

What you felt...when hunters go after their prey, they do so in the most opportune time and place. Similarly for the killings, if someone has a target or targets in mind...this land has a magic of its own.
no subject
[ wow, really don't like how it's the land itself that apparently facilitates all this murder. ]
So it's that magic that makes it so everyone either falls asleep or stays awake, then? You only stay awake if you plan to kill someone... or if you're the one someone wants to kill?
