THE THIRD TRIAL
(~SK. 17-18)


[When the investigation ends, the D O N G rings throughout the ship, followed by Zero's voice.]

It is time. Everyone, come to the theater. Time is...wasting.

[And so it is. The seating has once more changed to reflect the fallen-Moriarty and now Brain's podiums are draped in black. And, of course, there is no food-

The screens come up, and the mask of Zero appears, ever inscrutable. Their instructions are brief.]

Your Brain is gone, I'm afraid. Cut into pieces and cast aside...and someone here knows why. Now, it's time for you to discover the truth as well...if you can.


[The trial for the murder of Brain, the Blue, has begun.]

[And with Zack moving, he starts backing up, drawing a sword with each hand to fend off the vines, and - oh, he gets the feeling this is going to suck, so close to him? But not nearly so much as a direct hit would.]

[ The creature hisses and withdraws its vines, skittering off into the darkness.

It leaves behind an overwhelming feeling of: you will regret this. ]

[Alastor also lets out a slightly inhuman hiss as the herbs scatter too close to him, and quickly recoils before turning to run. His face has a bit of a violet rash, or possibly burn, on it, but he'll heal.]
