DR5 - Mirrored Embers - Chapter Six - Finale [Surviving Participants + Jane win]

I mean, if you know anything about the Ophiuchus astrological sign in relation to this school, then I would be personally curious because of these markings, but you don’t need to share.

“Fourteen of you were picked for your extreme ability in certain areas, as specified by your patron sign. For example,” he gestured to Matilda. “the wounded healer, Chiron. The fifteenth was the picker.”

“…”

He wants to reply, but he decides not to.

So…why were there 16 symbols?

“Please prevent lying. You can’t be the Ultimate Despair of something as ‘Despair’ isn’t a job nor a major. Please, be quiet.”

“That’s not all they are. But… don’t you think it’s weird how fifteen of the most prodigious people in the world were suddenly gathered in the same place, and all of the sudden, we’ve been knocked out, robbed of our supplies, and more?”

in that case then… are you not the Ultimate Private Investigator?

actually, don’t answer that. You’ve clearly got some motive to keep this mystery under wraps.

"Wow, so many drama queens.

We are waiting for one lalte class member for like… 30 minutes and you already do conspiracy theories?
I thought I signed up for university of magic, not theatre class.

He is just joking people, why would investigator enroll to school to begin with.
That’s just another kid enjoying trolling people and you just bite that."

“Like I said, I was assigned one, too.” Arthur held up his wrist. “I don’t have anything there, though.”

“We still have those two who need to wake up.” She points at DatBird and TrustworthyLiberal.

“Finally…someone with common sense.”

“…I’m going back to sleep…wake me up when something interesting happens…”

Arthur grew stern. “I hate liars. Didn’t you see what happened to poor Sonja, there?”

“Another person who’s speaking some sense. Glad to see there’s more than two of us.”

“…”

“Hey, Arthur?”

((imagine being a non-dysfunctional human being))

“Please, call me N.”

”And this would cause enough tragedy to befit someone of the title Ultimate Despair…?”

Matilda closes her hand around her wrist, panicking.

”Then what- what do they want from us?”
