"Bloody 'ell, what's so strange about what I did?", Howard asked Petur rather angrily. "Better safe than sorry, eh? Ah was in my room the whole bloody night and nobody ever visited. Ah never even left, so ya better get a new suspect."

After listening to Cooper's suggestion, he put his pipe back in his mouth, nodding in agreement. "Aye, 'tis better to chance killing an innocent than giving the Coven a guaranteed escape. 'Tis the only thing we can do. And if we're goin' off of gut feelings 'ere... ah'm voting fer her." He pointed at Forsythia. "She's hardly been actin' sane, if ya ask me. She seems tah be takin' this too lightly for me own likin', too. Yer more suspicious than the masked laddie tah me now, ah'm afraid."

Esther bit her lip. "I don't want to vote to hurt anyone. But I think we need to learn whatever we can, and I think Forsythia knows more than she's been letting on. So if we're going to try to get answers out of someone, then my vote is Forsythia."

"I don't think we should kill her. Not yet. Not until we can get some information out of her." Avis looked at Forsynthia. "But if voting is the only way to get it out of her, then I suppose I must vote for Forsynthia as well."

“Where in the sam heck did all this come from? I thought she was just nutty.” Cooper said, but he didn’t seem to be too bothered by their choice regardless.

"Information? Me?" Forsythia inquires, with a smile. "I don't know if I've got what you need. I might be pretty sharp, but it's not like I can tell you your future. Keeheehee."

"Anyway, I can't change who I am! Some people are a little sweeter than others, nothing wrong with that!"

Emilia hesitates a bit. "I think I'll have to vote for Forsythia as well... something just doesn't fit right with me about her."

André shrugged sadly "Well Forsythia, by my understanding, sweet is exactly what a witch could be. You know something of the occult so I suppose its fair to question you." He glanced at Amory

"Not to say I don't have other suspects but in the interests of time..."

"Let's talk to Forsythia"

"So long as we don't lynch the girl, I guess I'll have to go along with this," Pétur grumbled. "It's a good a lead as any."

"And Howard, I already explained myself, boy," he added impatiently. "Locked up in our houses is exactly how we were when some of us had powder thrown in our faces, or a bullet put through our chest, or... whatever happened to Jonas. You're free to do what you like, but encouraging everyone to do the same is dangerous thinking. Straying outside is exactly what led to our gunman dealing with one of these miscreants in the first place. Much as I disagree with the method, I can't deny the results."

6 votes have been collected for Forsythia.

The remaining town members watch her walk up to the podium, eager to hear what she has to say.

"Oh you would all just have your way with a lady like this? For shame!"

Forsythia waggles her finger playfully at the others.

"Since all of you are so thirsty for arcane knowledge, what do you desire to know? I'll answer everything honestly and completely, just be careful because if I lay too much bare, it could cause an issue!"

She blows a couple kisses from the podium.

"Well my groom and I loved to travel. I went to many places and learned many local myths and legends. Well maybe they're not myths, not all of them at least. I know how to read tarot cards, I've made dream-catchers, I know chiropractic, I've made hot sauce. Chances are, if it's out there, I've learned about it."

André smiled sweetly "And pray tell, what happened to this luckiest-of-men your groom? Seems in all those travels it would be easy to learn of witchcraft is what you are saying no?"

"Learned anything about this 'Coven', then?" Pétur asked. "And what about the Woeful Woods?"

"Well, after he came back from the war safely having had the best record for a spy of all time, me and him decided to travel to Australia where he was swimming with sharks and got stung by a jellyfish. It was very tragic, and I had to swim him back to shore!"

"I know the theory behind a couple of magics, but I wouldn't use them to hurt anyone! I can't believe you all have so little faith in me!"

"Of course I don't know anything about this place! I only just moved here!"

André laughed lightly "Oh I have absolute faith that you love to acquire knowledge and explore new experiences madam, but some knowledge has a price."

He extended an elegant arm towards the podium "I propose that at some point in your journeys and studies of the occult you met some true witches. They offered knowledge but at a price. You love taking in knowledge and so whatever that dark price was you paid it and in doing so became that which we seek just now."

André shrugged "At the least you've indicated an interest in the arcane and have actively sought such knowledge in the past no?"

"Oh." Forsythia frowns a little.

"André, you really take me for a fool don't you? Just the type of hapless broad who finds herself bound to packs of witches?"

"That's a shame, I always thought you were a little bit more..." she waves her hand, trying to think of the word. "Astute? Forward-thinking? You know."

[You have about 1 hour to decide if you want to vote guilty or innocent. If you choose not to vote within the next hour I will assume your character plans on abstaining.]

Esther looked down. "I said I did not want to hurt anyone, and I meant it. Besides, I have no good reason to believe that Forsythia is lying. I'm satisfied that she is innocent." Under her breath, she added, "At least for now."

Xander lightly sighed, his eye showing a look of worry in it. "I... will vote innocent as well. Much like Esther said, I have no reason to believe Forsythia is lying. Hopefully she is being truthful."

The town decides to spare Forsythia.

It is now getting very late, and the townspeople of Moonview decide to call it a day, hoping to uncover the answers they seek another day.

The next morning the town makes a strange discovery. When they finally bury the bodies of their recently deceased neighbors, they notice something strange sticking in the ground. It appears to be a stone tablet, with an odd drawing carved into it.

The drawing seems to depict a cluster of stick figure-esque individuals gathered in a large mass, fleeing from a large, vaguely spherical object in the sky. The details are hard to make out but there seem to be some buildings depicted in the background, including towers and what look like old churches. None of the townspeople seem to recognize this artstyle...What could this tablet represent?

“Bad choice.” Cooper scorned. “Even if we she was a townie, we would’ve learned something from that. Now we have nothing, and someone else will did with us having done nothing.”

He threw one last pile of dirt on the graves they dug and patted it down. It seemed he had nothing else to say of the matter but it was clear from his eyes he was disappointed.

André, dressed in a long grey mourning coat clapped a hand on Cooper's shoulder sympathetically as he sighed. "Ah...cheer up my friend. Not everyone is accustomed to the rough life like you are." He let his hand slip from Cooper's shoulder and took a couple of steps towards the grave placing a bouquet of flowers on Jonas grave.

He made a sign of prayer and stayed silent for a moment with his eyes closed before gazing solemnly on the grave.

"For the most part we are all good, kindhearted people. The choice to harm another is never going to be easy for us, nor is it a choice any of us should have to make." He said to the others. "If anything in being willing to take action, I fear you have put yourself in a dangerous position my friend...the Coven now knows who is willing to take a stand against them and who is not."

He bowed slightly to Forsythia "I won't pretend to ask for your forgiveness my lady but I hope you can understand why we had to investigate for I agree with Cooper that inactivity here will cost us down the line" he returned to a standing position "I hope that if you ARE innocent, then your information will be invaluable in rooting out the members of the cult." He said curtly before turning and moving off to his bar.

"Drinks are on the house...in honour of Jonas...and the rest of our souls."

Pétur nodded, following after André. "A drink to the lost," he agreed solemnly. "We all came here with dreams and aspirations, but for Jonas and Victor they've been lost to the void. The Coven want to divide us, so let's not give them the satisfaction, I say."

André's words seemed to calm down Cooper somewhat, and he looked at everyone else with less contempt than he had before. He slowly got a seat at the bar as well.

"Can't change what's happened. Can only hope what happens next knocks some sense in us. Or at least those of us who'll still be around to learn it..."

André nodded placing Cooper's usual down in front of him "Indeed my friend, its an old adage that 'desperate times call for desperate measures' maybe that's what it will come to...maybe it won't. Our resistance to adopt such harsh measures eh...that's what makes us human no?" He reached out and tenderly patted Cooper's hand before sliding his drink across to him before going to pour a drink for Petûr.

Avis glanced at the bar, then turned away. "I'd rather not have any, thank you. I feel we should all be a bit more focused on figuring out who these other coven members are."
