《Whodunnit? Murder On Mystery Cove》9 Accusations Fly
Advertisement
When all of the guests had gathered back into the foyer, Giles clasped his hands together and began his speech. "Dear guests, you have all done well in investigating this murder but now you must choose to share that knowledge. However, be careful, the killer is among you and is watching."
There was a silence. Suddenly broken by Ruben who whirled around to Grant. "Here's what I want to know. You found her just sitting there on the chair and you pushed her forward, and suddenly she's dead. Doesn't add up buddy!" He stepped closer to Grant who flared at him. "I found her like that and it was not a very happy find. I didn't kill her!" Regina stepped between them. "This is what the killer wants can't you see?"
"That's easy for you to say since you have the giant ring on your finger." The accusation was directed at Regina and Lizzie was proud of it. "For all we know, you bought this mansion and trapped us in your little game!" Bailey stepped forward to defend her. "That's over the line Lizzie! Any one could be the killer." He looked around and so did everyone else. Slowly, people began to break away in small groups.
Natalie motioned Tripp and Montana to join her. Bailey and Regina spoke to Andrew. Grant and Caleb were chatting with Lizzie and Vivian about what they'd found. This lasted for a solid thirty minutes with people choosing to share things and some holding them back.
Finally, Giles returned. "You may all wash up for the night, but be back here in an hour for the first challenge and riddle." He turned on his heels and exited. This was all feeling like clockwork now. Giles was dreading the night when two or three guests would be sentenced to possible death.

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!
