FINAL TRIAL

Final Trial


This Friday morning you've investigated as has become commonplace, even if the circumstances have shifted. And now it's time to take stock of what you've found, what options you have, what options you don't, in the lull of action you have left.

The abyss in the fountain beckons, but doesn't demand quite yet. Who knows when that will change, though.

[OOC NOTE: You'll have the first hour of trial to discuss what you found in final investigation yesterday, and then we'll get this show on the road! ]

...No. I wouldn't.

[A small sigh. Fucking hell. She hates having morals.]

Fate is binding either way. I'm not sure if we have the option of releasing the hold of the story entirely, at least not with the Bedlam still here.

So you're going to turn him into your powerless tool before even attempting anything else?

Is that the future you would stand for?

[She hesitates. What is necessary, and what is cruelty? Is she any better than Arundel if she makes a slave out of someone bound to their fate, bound to the demon who lays claim to their soul?

No.]


...No. You're correct. We should set him free. And then decide what to do later.

If you want revenge afterwards, you can settle it with him by your own power and his own power. That is the most anybody can ask for in this world.

I have no use for revenge. Only destroying the causes at the root and salting the earth so they may never sprout again.

If the Piper will be useful anyway, I don't care at all what happens to him.
