Week 3.

[trustharder]

WEEK 3 Another week has passed; two more Survivors are gone. Pearl and Caren both had someone to fight for, someone worth killing for; perhaps it's for the best to hope that somehow they've found peace despite not being able to collect on the Kingmaker's incentive. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; there aren't any bodies to be found on Sunday morning. That doesn't mean the night passed easily, though - it seems another piece of your personal puzzle may have fallen into place while you slept... Following that spiral staircase up to the second floor will reveal something strange; those stairs definitely lead far higher than you remember, up to a previously inaccessible third floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; consider it your reward for a job well done. SURVIVORS REMAINING: 23

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[he seems sincerely confused by the question.]

What, what else could I possibly do? Just... Just let them take her away? I can't. It'd kill her... I'd...

[sleepingkogoro]

I'm not saying to let them take her away.

[Calm down, Norman! Mouri got here to check what was causing you so much despair, not to intensify it]

But maybe instead of covering up her crimes you could try to do something to stop them from happening. There must be a reason why she is committing murder, try to find out what it is and do something about that.

[psychoh]

She's just, um... She's sick, in the mind. There's nothing I can do-- I watch her, but I, I can only be there so often...

... There's nothing I can do to stop her. [he says, like he's said it quite often before.]

[sleepingkogoro]

...damn it, this is complicated.

Still, she can't keep doing that forever. At some point she will have to stop and everything should be fine. Don't give up yet, Norman-kun. Stay by her side.

[And for the next few days Mouri mulled how the hell to deal with Norman's situation because like hell he is going to stand aside and let that continue]

[psychoh]

Story of my life.

... Y'know, that did help. A little. [it's still a completely hopeless situation but at least it's not eating him alive anymore!] Thanks.

[sleepingkogoro]

Hahah, it was nothing, Norman-kun. This place may have been designed to destroy your hopes, so it's up to everyone to keep an eye on each other.

I'm sure you'd do the same if somebody else needed somebody to listen.

[psychoh]

I'd hope I would. Everyone's been so nice to me, I'd want to, uh, return the favor.

[sleepingkogoro]

I'll keep that potential offer in mind, then.

[Not really. If Mouri ever urgently needs someone to talk Norman is not really his first choice]
