Kirumi Tojo's Palace | The Ultimate Maid's Failures

[kandata]

By now everyone may be used to find themselves in bizarre locations, between going into palaces and visiting Nekyia. It might not come as a surprise that it has happened again.

What might come as a surprise, though...is how empty this place is.

All around you there's nothing more than a large, gray, featureless expanse. In the distance there seem to be bars, curving upwards to gather so, so high above you, possibly hundreds of miles above, so high it’s hard to distinguish.

It’s a cage. So unfathomably large. You could escape, were you to get to the edges of the cage, but...it would take forever. No matter how you look at it, you're trapped. The atmosphere is so...hopeless. Devoid of anything even remotely positive.

Not that you want to hang around for long, do you? After all, this is someone's palace. Not a place to stick around at. What to do, though?

It’s all so...empty. Silent. Featureless. A flat expanse of hard gray tiles.

Gather together, everyone. Gather and choose a direction. North, East, West, South. All directions look completely identical, but could it affect your time in this place, somehow? Probably not. But all treks start with the first step. Perhaps, if you get moving, you'll progress?

The rules that Kirumi's group was given were apparently more exhaustive than the ones you received.

They went on to specify that once a murder was discovered, every student would be made to participate in a 'class trial'. Over the course of that trial, the participants would have to find the 'blackened' individual. Should they find them, the culprit would be executed.

Should the culprit get away with it, they'd graduate and reenter regular society... at the cost of everyone else. Punishment for a wrong decision at trial was execution for the whole class.

Ah. Ahaha. Oh, oh this post palace is going to give Sayaka a lot to think about, what the fuck.]

...Thank you, McGillis-san. That sounds completely on brand for Monokuma.

[She never knew this. She never knew, she thought it'd just be Kuwata who--

She forces her emotions down. Save Tojo-san, and then you can beat yourself up for this. Keep it together..]

How unpleasant...

[ It's as bad or worse as he expected. Okay, worse. These are high schoolers hello??? ]

Thank you both for the explanations.

[ MODS CAN WE GET RECARMS WITH OUR AC LEVEL UPS?
