FINAL TRIAL

FINAL TRIAL


[Soon enough, soon enough.

The ticking doesn't stop by the time everyone starts to congregate at the temple. It's ultimately not hard to find; after going north for a little bit, it becomes all too clear where the temple is.]





[The very top of the temple has a room, one of cold stone and blood. There is a stone table at the center; there is nothing on it but dried blood. There are no chairs, no food, no coffins-only small, hastily-scribbled circles to indicate where people might need to stand to face their captors.

And stand they will need to, as they wait for the Stewards to arrive. The time for what will very likely be a final confrontation is almost upon them. Now it's just a question of putting together the clues they've found-and seeing if there truly is a way out of this predicament.

Only one thing is certain-at this point, anything is possible.]



[It's time! The objectives are simple in this trial. It's time to finally answer the questions the Titled have about why they are here, and what, exactly, the route they all intend to take after five long weeks - especially when the Stewards arrive.

GOOD LUCK, TITLED!]

[EDIT: VOTING IS OPEN! This will close at midnight EST on May 25th!]

--the Scythes ready. Now that we--

[Oh. wait. Hm!]

Ah! I see. The ones on the island. How have you managed to gain my number?

I certainly do not give it out freely.

[He looks very...angry. Or maybe it's just his mask. Though he does sound just a tad upset.]

[WHAT. Osomatsu is surprised that that even worked. he stares dumbfounded, mouth open like a fish]

U-Uh...! Sorry. I found your number...! My name is Osomatsu! Can you... tell me who you are?

IT'S YOUUUUUUUUUUU! SHINIGAMIIIIIIIIIII!

[SHE'S JUST LOSING IT AFTER THE WHOLE MADNESS INCURSION SO]

YOU'RE TOO LATE! I ALREADY SET UP THE BEDS OF NAILS AND IT DIDN'T DO ANYTHING THAT HELPED US! WHATEVER YOU WANTED OUT OF US SUFFERING LIKE THIS WAITING FOR YOU TO COME RESCUE US I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY BECAUSE I AM NEVER, EVER OBEYING YOU AGAIN!

[personal profile] 15unknowns 2019-05-25 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)


I am Shinigami.

[As if it should be obvious. Do you not see the scary mask?

After Krone speaks, he looks over to her. His voice sharpens, just slightly.]


Suffering? Waiting? What are you talking about!?

I have never seen any of you before this moment! What has happened!?

[Eric laughs, for almost too long. It's a high and wild sound, nothing like what he's loosed on everyone's ears before. Finally, he calms himself.]

There's still so much I don't know, and you claim IGNORANCE?
relieable: (it got stuck)

[personal profile] relieable 2019-05-25 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[just going to ignore Krone's outburst. okay. so this is Shinigami]

A lot has happened! We were kidnapped by some Lady who wants us all to go mad so she can use us to fight. And be weapons for her?

[The figure fixes its eye on Eric, then back to Osomatsu. Hes talking, also, to several human figures behind him as well.]

I see. Then, it is very simple. Something has concealed your presence from us during this time, and prevented us from even knowing that anything had happened again on the island until this morning. Without warning, I could sense incredible levels of madness radiating from the island.

It is the only explanation, though I do not know of a power capable of such a great venture. It is clear that it's possible now, but that is not important.

What is important is that we can help correct this wrong now.

[his shoulders relax. he's still scared, but maybe feeling a bit more hopeful now?]

Well, if it helps, we were trapped under... some kinda weird sky. It just started breaking and we were able to get out of the mansion. That's what probably hid us.
15unknowns: (Default)

[personal profile] 15unknowns 2019-05-25 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)


I see. Some kind of concealing barrier, impenetrable from the outside. It is worrying if Arachnophobia's remnants have created such a thing.

But, no matter what, do not fear, Osomatsu. We know where you are.

We are coming.
relieable: (why are your pants in the freezer)

[um. holy shit. he wonders if he... did something good, or bad. will he be able to go home? will he be safe? are they all doomed?]

Okay.

COULD YOU PLEASE! NOT! PLAY DUMB!!!! I KNOW YOU TOLD ME NOT TO TELL ANYONE, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE! YOU SENT SOUL AND HIS ANGEL GIRLFRIEND INTO THE PAST TO MAKE SURE ARACHNOPHOBIA DIDN'T STIR UP MADNESS AND RESURRECT OUR GLORIOUS LEADER! AND WHEN THAT JUST GOT THEM KILLED, YOU TOLD ME TO KARMICALLY TORTURE THOSE DEEMED GUILTY SO THEIR SOULS WOULD SEPARATE AND NOT BECOME KISHIIIIIIIIIIIIINS THAT WOULD BURN THIS TERRIBLE EXCUSE FOR A WOOOOOOORLD! I WON'T LET YOU LIE!!!!!!!!!
15unknowns: (Default)

[personal profile] 15unknowns 2019-05-25 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)


I do not know of these two you speak of! Send to the past? Why? Arachne is dead!

[Aaaand then Krone gets to the rest of what she has to say and]

WHAT!?

[That. That actually gets him angry.]

Karmically torturing souls!? That is a blasphemy! Never would I ask anyone to do something so cruel and so akin to what the Witch did to her victims!

That is a fool's path to destruction, for it is not just the souls of those you harm, but it is your own as well!

Who is this who told you such lies!

Arachne- the spider lady? She found a way to die that'll let her return- I experienced her death!

She was hurt and being hunted and her body dissolved into spiders, so her consciousness is spread all over the world, and I know where she put her soul!
15unknowns: (Default)

[personal profile] 15unknowns 2019-05-25 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)


!

[Shinigami seems taken aback, before he nods.]

I see. So then that is what happened-we should have suspected she had such a trick up her sleeve.

Young man, I am sorry that you have been caught up in this. But are you willing to tell me where her is soul now?
whiterosefoes: (Hate you Simon)

[personal profile] whiterosefoes 2019-05-25 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Not for free.

[She hopes Arthur will listen here, they have no idea what this guy is and what he will do.]

Someone who looked just like you! Except a little—yes, different, but basically like you! He called me through a mirror just like this! He got a mirror and phone number in here through the barrier, so I had no choice to obey him in case he sent in a bomb! Not that he was so uncouth as to threaten me, of course, he acted nice and wise and authoritarian! Like you!

[She thrusts out the photo of Soul and Maka]

You have no idea who these sweet, precious children who trusted you are? We have their poor souls with us! And one's skeleton!
necroyalty: (speak with such a screech)

[personal profile] necroyalty 2019-05-25 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I hate to alarm you, but...

I tried speaking to the skeleton. Using my own world's necromantic art.

All it could do was make what I only assumed was its last sounds in life.

They were drowning.
joinhands: (Hope)

[personal profile] joinhands 2019-05-25 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... that's what I thought might have happened...

[clenched fist

intense emotion]


In this world, souls and skeletons are both just helpless remains...

I saw what they did to him...it- it was bad. Not as bad as what happened to the girl with the angel soul.

If they are indeed from the future, as you claim that they traveled to the past, how could I know them!

[I mean. Krone. No offense. Time travel.]

And yet, that Arachnophobia would still harm them, regardless...what a cruelty. It doesn't matter where or when they came from.That is unforgivable.
joinhands: (Frustrated)

[personal profile] joinhands 2019-05-25 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
He knew them! Why would he tell a lie that our clairvoyants could disprove so easily? I had no reason to assume this mirror doesn't connect to the future!

Arachnophobia may use tactics that are wrong, but they're just trying to bring back Lady Arachne! After what you people did to her!

That is. But are we?

[Eric is not seeing Shinigami. There's been enough time travel talk that he's seeing someone altogether different....]

You lied to a boy once. Told him he'd find what he sought if only he fought. Should he believe a single word from you now he's a man?
