The Fifth Trial
Who: ALL
When: Day 11, noon
Where: Outer Space
Come hither, Heroes. Prove thy worth.
[ That familiar silence befalls everything following the call, and just like before the third trial there’s a glittering void, points of light twinkling in the air. As you step into the space it expands, seeming to consume you, the Aurora, and all that exists in general. There’s a feeling of vertigo as this happens, frozen lights swirling all about you and once again it's all accompanied by obnoxious giggling.
This time, however, when the darkness fades, you're...
Back inside of the Aurora? No, this is actually an entirely different train. Outside the windows, you can only see wispy, dancing lights illuminating the surroundings, which you can't quite make out. The doors outside don't open. ]

Re: ENDGAME
ah, right. ]
I wasn't quite as involved. But my teammates were very keen on preventing anyone from sacrificing themselves in the last round of the last game. ... yours don't seem to have appreciated their efforts.

Re: ENDGAME
To be honest I wasn't quite listening at that point. I was only hoping my own teammates wouldn't jump off after her.
Though if you're asking "why was jumping off of the train an option to begin with", it was a moral dilemma. We had to choose someone to sacrifice in order to save everyone who stayed on the train. The other members of my team all decided that they would rather none of us sacrifice ourselves, and that we would rather leave the so-called "citizens" to die instead.
I'm about as surprised as you might be by this.
Re: ENDGAME
[ hm. ]
Why not just let her go by herself?

Re: ENDGAME
Akira lost his patience with the trial itself. Which I believe is why we ended up on the side of "none of us will be sacrificed".

Re: ENDGAME
Evidently it was a test, to prove a point. Though whether she cared about that or not is beyond me. She's not my teammate.
