JASPER

[dramatispersonae]

This room is as empty as the ring was, but for a round table with seats for everyone.

You can't see the Lady, but you can feel her presence, as it were.

"I have lost everything... So there is nothing here. This game will test your commitment. And through it, I hope I will learn what belongs."

I wonder...

I see you're not terribly forthcoming. Must we drink everything in the chalice to pass this round?

Re: DISCUSS

I wonder too. If one of us drinks and really dies, would we be continuing the game like that? That doesn't seem very helpful to team unity.

[in an undertone]

It may be a question of who chooses to drink, and how the matter is decided. She wants to test our bonds, does she not?

Re: DISCUSS

[thinkoutsidethebox]

So it would seem. Then should we all share equally? Would everyone agree to that?

Re: DISCUSS

[rebells]

I won't risk the chance that it may be real. Saya has an idea.

[rolls her eyes]

You can try, but that's stretching the reasonable definition of the word "drink," don't you think?

Re: DISCUSS

[rebells]

So it is. Have any better ideas? Ones that don't involve us drinking poison?
