"Knightly Trial Beginnings"

Walking to the forsaken courtroom was easy, but entering was an unbearable feat. We all tremble on our own sweat just thinking about the large gold encrusted doors opening up for us, just to lynch one of our own friends.. Even though this seems despairing, we need to find the culprit.. or else..

Let's succeed and battle to the end! And conquer despair!

Trial, Now In Session

- The Courtroom -

*We all grab a seat in a large room, aligned with chairs in a circle.

This circle of podiums are odd, but we are able to see everyone's faces.

Proxie: "Remember everyone.. if we do not find the right person guilty, we all will perish."

Me: "Lets start with who seen King last?"

Who seen King last?

Poc: "I hadn't seen King since.. uhh.."

Claire: "I was in the library all day."

Poc: "Uhh.."

Proxie: "I seen King at breakfast, but he retreated to his bedroom shortly after."

Me: "Oh yeah, I remember. He was the only person late for breakfast."

Poc: "Uhh.."

Todd: "What is it Poc?"

Poc: "The last time I seen 'em was in the screen room."

Me: "Huh?"

Proxie: "It's okay Apoc. I searched the screen room cameras, Poc is telling the truth."

The screen room has surveillance?

Jish: "H- How do we know you're telling the truth!"

Wha?! Jish never speaks out of term like that.. He must be frightened and on edge.

Todd: "I agree."

Proxie: "Look here little boys, I've had about en---"

Me: "Prox, it's okay.."

*Proxie dips her head into her notebook.

Jish: "So after Poc had seen King in the screen room.. Poc killed him there and then!"
