week three - saturday post-trial - sieg

[arockstar]

[It's odd how many people are still milling around the carnival after all the terrible shit that went down here the other night. It helps that not everyone has to actually witness it, he figures. And it's certainly a more lively scene than the courtyard or the rest of the temple.

Newt spots Sieg and heads over.]

You talk to Merriment yet?

[That's related and important right now, for sure.]

Comments

[arockstar]

Fair enough. Was that the only reason, or did you actually suspect her follower was responsible?

[heartmunculus]

I have no idea who her follower is.

[arockstar]

...Which means you were willing to condemn them to death because you didn't agree with Ruin's vision.

[He says it like a fact, not a judgment.]

Interesting way to play the game, Sieg.

[heartmunculus]

If we knew who the killer who had intent was, I'd rather vote for them.

[ Is he entirely okay with it? Not really. However... With a game like this, who wins is important. ]

This game won't last forever. For us, it's temporary. That won't be the case for the people who are in that world.

[arockstar]

[He nods.]

You're not wrong. I wish more people would think of the game like that, if I'm being honest.

[He shoves his hands into his pockets.]

It's just temporary. I don't like it anymore than anyone else, but at least it's temporary.

[heartmunculus]

It'll be over in a few weeks. The deaths and injuries will be reversed and whoever wins gets their wishes granted.

... Of course, I'd like to win. But so would everybody.
