THIRD TRIAL

[despairection]

[Ashley Blair, the SHSL Witch-in-Training, is dead. She's had her life snuffed out, but how and why? It's a murder both mysterious and menacing.

Portraits of Betrayus and Ashley, depicted in monochrome coloring, stand at their podiums. But more importantly, the courtroom this time is an exact and functional replica of the Eggman Factory. If only for the evidence they'll never be able to move...

Will they be able to use this evidence to find the truth? Or will the culprit's confusing conundrum get the best of them?

10 students remain.]



[Let the class trial in the murder of Ashley Blair...begin.]

[Well, both notes are typed for one thing, but the badness of the note doesn't seem it's intentional? There are definitely words and phrases you can make out here and there.]

[superstylishschism]

[Do any of the phrases match the legible letter?]

[monoguests]

[The phrases match the note found on Ashley's person, yes.]

[superstylishschism]

Looks like someone tried to send this message to all of us, but most of them got ruined somehow.

[Just how is the letter garbled, anyway? Printer smears? Water damage? Something else?]

[monoguests]

[It seems like it might be printer smears, possibly from a printer malfunction or something along those lines.]

[superstylishschism]

And this is why you should always check your documents when they come out of the printer.

I call 'not it' on fixing the thing if anyone wants to print anything out later.

That's-a weird though. If they had time to write post all the letters on our doors, wouldn't they have noticed that most of them were ruined?

[fitnessenthusiast]

Maybe they can't read?

[superstylishschism]

Well, if two people were involved...I guess it's possible one of them was illiterate and couldn't tell, if the one who did the typing never looked at the printed sheets...

[green_mario]

... I'm-a pretty sure whoever wrote this knows how to read at least.

[He's... not sure how else it would have been written down.]
