cowledcrusader | Fourth Night [Action/Voice, Backdated to April 12th]

[Action]

[Naoya and Dilandau are safely behind bars in the tunnels, secured and locked away with no weapons.   And right now he made sure to take every key to the prisons and secure the entrance with a padlock of his own. It should be strong enough to hold anyone attempting to break them out for now.

First thing's first. He needs to track down the woman named Yuzu that Naoya spoke to. She did not sympathize with him, but knows of him and his weapon system.  Possessing Dilandau's COMP, he will actively seek her out for questioning and follow up on any leads he can.]

[Voice]

[After speaking with Yuzu and following up where the leads take him, Batman will reluctantly open a voice communication. Someone has to make the announcement.   He's not much of a talker and he's never been good with people. But it needs to be done.]

Attention, citizens of Luceti. Dilandau and Naoya have been detained in the murder of Kohaku, a fellow citizen of Luceti.   They will remain in custody until such a time that the people of this village agree on a just punishment or until they are properly tried by a court of law.   That is all.

Thank you for doing this, sir.

[Said in manner that implies honesty rather than superiority.]

You don't need to thank me.

Still I am grateful that the threat has been contained for now.

How could they have done such a thing to that sweet child?

Madness is not something that can be easily explained.

[Said with a tone that strongly implies disgust toward their actions as well, though the reply is not overly emotional.]

.. would there be anyone here who could help them with that then? To counsel them perhaps?

[He strongly believes in second chances, most of the time anyway.]
