Mearie manages to locate the two suspicious figures she noticed last night. They're hanging back, not making any amount of fuss.
After brief deliberation, Cassius decides to attempt to break in the door. He commands the crowd to clear a space, and they comply without hassle. Following this, he makes a powerful charge at the door, focusing his force in the point of his shoulder. The first hit makes a loud racket, and the door creaks heavily. The second one takes it right off its hinges, and the room is lay bare to all watching. Vincent, Zephyr and Cassius enter the room before the other guests.
It appears that Vincent's suspicion was not incorrect. The man, who you assume to be Sir Garrin, lies face-up on the bed. His shirt is stained with blood, and his eyes are wide open. Seems as though the man's been stabbed; that a knife was thrust into his very heart.
It's not long after that that your attention is drawn to the wall, upon which is printed in what may be crimson paint or blood:
"A PEACE TREATY USUALLY MEANS YOU DON'T CONSPIRE AGAINST YOUR NEW ALLIES."
And then, a more startling detail: the key to this room is still inside it, and the door was locked. The single window is closed.
A true closed room murder... there are three questions to be answered.
- Who dunnit?
- How dunnit?
- Why dunnit?
