Murder Mystery: Death Knight Edition

''Where were you staying at?''

 

If Liun is missing his bow...

I'll ask Eliwood if the Salted Salmon had any guests at the time. I'll also ask any employees he might have if he was at the inn at the time of the muder.

 

Liun: "The Salted Salmon Inn."

Eliwood: "We still had a few guests."
Inn person: "Which murder?"


Turn Count = 36
A new event has begun:
"A note was found pinned next to @Florfy5. In the same handwriting as the note on Athos, it reads "Stop now your next"."

 

I have an idea I ask everyone to write out the name of who they think the killer is and compare the hadwriting to the death/threat notes

 

Spoiler: Eliwood's Note

Liun.
The handwriting is simple and standard, less clumsy than the notes.

Spoiler: Liun's Note

Bramimond.
The handwriting is quick and scratchy, and doesn't look like the notes.

Spoiler: Bramimond's Note

Eliwood.
The handwriting is very fancy, unlike the notes.

 

Alright my take on it
Brammimond or whatever cast the spell for whatever reason,
It either malfunctioned when someoned entered the room and killed the victim,
and since Lium has a missing bow someone took it and killed him I believe

Judith seems to be a bit... sketchy

Additionally, both people died from arrows,

It's quite obvious the murders preffered method of killing is the bow,
so I think the dark magic was a one time fluke / accident



Ask Brammimond:
Have you ever cast your ward spell? Even if you think it didn't work, did you try casting it even once? Where did you cast at it

 

Bramimond: "I've tested it a couple times in several locations, including the castle bathroom, my study, and Judith's room at the inn. No test has been conclusive, however, and the spell is barely functioning."

 

what I'm about to say is complicated but I hope you'll understand

I shuffle the notes and give them around so everyone has a note that they haven wrote in and say to write why they suspect the their original suspect, Then i pass it out again so that the person hasn't wrote in it abd ask them to write their evidence. at the end if nobodies faking their handwriting they we get redable accusations if the handwriting is fake we can analayse who faked it


I wasn't joking when i said it's complicated

 

Why did you cast it in Judith's room?
DId he let you cast it? why?

Also -

Can we send someone to enter the castle bathroom, and the study to look for magic?

 

...I'm confused.

Bramimond: "Judith hired me to cast it. She said she needed protection."

The bathroom and study both have dark magic auras. The bathroom one is too strong and nearly kills the guy you send in, and the study one is weak.

 

Now this is odd, Brammimond is either
A. Lying about how well the spell worked
B. Actually has no clue

IT seems that he,
1. Practiced the spell first in the study, it failed
2. Practiced in the bathroom, it worked [sorta]
3. Then proceeded to do it for Judith [IT worked-ish but stronger]

Brammimond - Can you confirm that is the order in which you cast teh spells?
Study
Bathroom
Judith

 

Bramimond: "Actually, it was the bathroom, the study, and then Judith's room."

 

I'll try to comprehend it:

Step 1: Shuffle the notes
Step 2: Distribute them, making sure nobody gets the note they wrote in
Step 3: Ask them their reason for suspecting them
Step 4: Check for fraud handwriting
Step 5: Distribute it so that each person gets a note they didn't write in the last 2 times
Step 6: Ask the to write their evidence
Step 7: Check for fraud
Step 8: Analyze notes

Am I correct?

 

Maybe.

 

Yeah thx for explaining it

 

Odd....
Very odd

Perhaps Bramimond isn't lying?
The spell seems fickle

Medium Strong
Weak
Strong

Im not quite sure anymore....

Well we know that Judith had a drinking and gambling problem,
Probably racked up some debts
Someone tried to kill him for that I think


We need to now focus on who was connected to Judith, now that we know 1/2 of the people involved [I think]

We know the guard captain was killed with the flame bow
However!!!!!!
Notice how Judith didnt die from FLAME ARROWS
he died from... normal arrows

Even though the bow was stolen at around 6, 30 minutes before the murder

It seems the murderer didn't use the flame bow on the victim
Now this confuses me, it seems that the murderer used 2 different bows,
Or perhaps.... there are 2 murderers?

Whats your guys take on it

Ask - Liam
Where did you last leave your bow?
[sorry if this was already asked]

 

Okay.

Spoiler: Eliwood's Answers

Suspecting Reason: Liun's an archer, and the only one with a bow. Well, aside from Athos, but he's dead now.
Evidence: Liun has a bow, and both deaths were caused by arrow wounds.
The handwriting looks the same on all three notes, although it gets a bit messier on the third one.

Spoiler: Bramimond's Answers

Suspecting Reason: Judith drinks a lot at the Salted Salmon.
Evidence: Eliwood probably doesn't want Judith being drunk and causing trouble at the inn.
The handwriting looks the same on all three notes.

Spoiler: Liun's Answers

Suspecting Reason: There was a dark magic ward on Judith's room.
Evidence: The ward doesn't work well, and could have overpowered and killed her.
The handwriting looks the same on all three notes.

 

Remember: Liun was hunting on the night of Judith's murder. Hence, he likely had his bow. His bow, however, was stolen when Athos was murdered, provided Liun is telling the truth.

So, two different bows were used. One was Liun's, one was not. Make of that what you will.
