THE TRIAL ROUND... TRIAL... YEAH I SHOULD'VE CHOSEN ANOTHER NAME.
[On Saturday morning, the gates of the courthouse fly open.
All character will be ushered-- or forcibly dragged, if it comes to that-- the the Courthouse by the various gardeners. The interior of the courthouse is spacious enough for any amount of vigorous discussion, whatever that may be. Who knows what's on the second floor and beyond.
Meng Po sits above the chairs, overseeing everyone below.]
Today, you have all been brought here to find the one who murdered Cagliostro. Once you have come to a decision over who is guilty, you will cast votes on who you believe is the murderer. If the majority votes correctly, the murderer is condemned to Hell, and you will all be one step closer to reincarnation. If they are not found, they will be reincarnated instead, and whoever else is voted in their place as the murderer will be scapegoated. The murderer's sins will be falsely imprinted on them, condemning the scapegoat to Hell.
Should you correctly identify the murderer, there will be a second round of voting: the mercy vote, or the exoneration vote. If you believe the murderer deserves to be reincarnated or the victim deserved to die for any reason, you can vote for exoneration, and the murderer will be reincarnated if the majority votes for it. However, I am not responsible for what happens afterwards to the rest of you.
[...That's... okay, sure.]
Without further ado: the court is in session.
[Do your worst.]

He decides very quickly that, despite what he's been saying, it's a little more difficult to condemn the boy now. If he didn't see this beforehand, it'd be easier.
"I wonder, if we, who are like human but aren't human will experience death at our end..."
Tsurumaru listened to Mikazuki speak as they shared sake ontop of the roof on this moonlight night.
"...Even swords are things that don't want to die..."]
Well, no hard feelings, right, Neku?
[ ... Then again, he's already made his decision, as he recalls over what they talked about earlier-- the fact that they didn't know what could happen if they exonerated a murderer.
Tsurumaru covers his answer, which is YES. He's going to hate himself for this later. ]
