RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Magolor - 07-25-2021
Maybe I did, but I can't say just yet. I'm taking about our claimed Bus Driver and Watcher...
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - MadameButterflyKnife - 07-25-2021
Chip. The fact that Lloyd is dead...may he find forgiveness in death...the point is. His death seems to validate your story. If you two were working together, it would be very unlikely; the cultists wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot by sacrificing one of their own for a ruse. If they were willing to sacrifice themselves, we wouldn't be here in the first place.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - TalesofUnder - 07-25-2021
Have we found any validation for Kondraki's story yet?
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - PointMaid - 07-25-2021
Yeah, I know, of course I was telling the truth!
...But I'm kinda convinced somebody was lying about their role claim yesterday. You all found these rule books, right? I guess that Death and Life must've left them. They say that the cultists will know one of these 'roles' we have that's unclaimed so they'd be able to claim it themselves with no one the wiser -- not being able to be called out on it by the real owner of the role.

>body check
...dear god. His head was twisted way further than what the human neck can normally reach by turning.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - TalesofUnder - 07-25-2021
...Huh. I suppose we should make up a list of all the roleclaims.
(Jean writes down the following:
Lloyd - Jailer
Chip and Ada - Fruit Vendor
Knuckles - Watcher
Kondraki - Bus Driver
Lotus - Stalker
Me - One-Shot Bulletproof)

>examine neck closer, does it look like it was done by hand, with some tool, ect.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - MadameButterflyKnife - 07-25-2021
If there's anything I've learned from the claps I've witnessed back in the city, it's that snapping a neck is harder than one would think. It involves a bit of strength to do so. Our culprit is no weakling.

Mitsuha turns very, very pale when she realises this disturbing fact.
"I-I'm sorry, but... I think I need to sit down..."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Cassie - 07-25-2021
>did any tool/hand do this?
...No.

I had the same idea. That's why I'm going to wait for their actions and results first. I know you might suspect me as a result but... I know I'm right, here.

"Hey, member how Lotus said she was gonna stalk Malakhiri? Problem with that. Never appened. She didn't. I checked."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Kennifer - 07-25-2021
"Yeah, we need to hear from Kondraki... would Lloyd have had time to prevent him from switching anybody before he died, like he said he was going to try? And Lotus... You didn't stalk the cultist? What happened with that? You stalk somebody else, or..."
She was trying not to look at the body for now because dear lord. Someone walking around alive with their neck twisted like that? Probably funny. This, however... far from it.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - PointMaid - 07-25-2021
...I knew we should've sent that giftbasket to somebody else!
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Caret - 07-25-2021
"It doesn't appear that Lloyd's neck was twisted with a hand or tool. Could it have been twisted with some sort of... magic? Wait, is that even possible? Who can use magic in here?"
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Zanreo - 07-25-2021
"It's possible..." Z says. "Some kind of strange power... maybe someone here would be capable of that"
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Magolor - 07-25-2021
She quickly lightens up. "I think we can trust both of them, then. Sorry for the worry, I was just trying to lay a trap.
I Stalked Knuckles last night, just in case he was lying. Based on the Cultist roles in place, and that Malakhiri is alive, and that Knuckles actually had a result... he and Kondrakhi are safe.
I also received your wonderful fruits, by the way."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - TalesofUnder - 07-25-2021
Magic... you're saying that this was done by a witch?
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - psychedelicate - 07-25-2021
"B-but we don't have any sorcerers here... right...?"
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - PointMaid - 07-25-2021
...Lay a trap so that if somebody tried to kill Knuckles they'd kill Malakhiri? Why would they want to kill Knuckles?
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - MadameButterflyKnife - 07-25-2021
Ada, I believe they meant they laid a trap to see if Knuckles was indeed telling the truth about his role. Not a killing trap, per se. Although...I believe another plan was mentioned yesterday?
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - PointMaid - 07-25-2021
And if the magic thing is true -- which I don't want to believe -- I'd look at Malakhiri, wouldn't you?
> Any evidence it was something other than magic?
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Kennifer - 07-25-2021
"Clever, provided it's true. Potentially dangerous, but clever."
Amy smiles a bit.
"Okay, so that confirms the newlyweds' story at least, unless you're all in cahoots with one another or something. But that seems... unlikely. It doesn't tell us who did it, but helps narrow down who didn't."
"Now... who could be capable of snapping someone's neck without leaving hand or tool prints, or at least making it look like they did?"
She glances around at the others.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - Magolor - 07-25-2021
"No, no, you've got it all backwards. If Knuckles was a cultist, he could lie about visiting Kondrakhi and nobody could say otherwise. If I were to instead Stalk Knuckles, I could make sure he's both safe and a Watcher."
She seems rather annoyed again...
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 3) - PointMaid - 07-25-2021
...Well, okay... I still don't see what you were waiting to say that for.
