[Since arriving in the castle, Maribelle has been researching different advances in law, civil rights, medicine and weaponry. There is a copious amount of notes on all these subjects, though less on weapons than the others. They're all on loose sheets of paper and organised by subject in her desk drawer. As the weeks go on, her focus obviously becomes medicine with fairly obvious subtopics.
Blood types- blood transfers, how types are determined. Poisons- symptoms, cures, different kinds. Effects of chloroform? First aid- seizures, internal injuries, head wounds. aand a bunch of other stuff that caught her eye.]
Four players (specified- players, not people) know who it is.
Chiaki- Did not deny being with Mastermind. 90% sure she is. Does not want to hurt anyone in the game. Being forced to be part of group. Wants the Mastermind dead? Seems unlike her.
Kuzuryuu- Did not deny, but might just be being stubborn. 80% sure. If not, something to do with Chiaki. Stubborn idiot? Does not think we should trust easily. Idiot.
Chizuru- Also did not deny. 90% certain. Isn't sure that we can win but wants us to?
Feferi- 100% certain. Was made not to retire. Did they tell her we'd kill her? Does not think any of the players are bad people. Conflicts with Chiaki, does not want the Mastermind to die. "There isn't a single person in this castle right now that deserves to die."
Could Kougyoku have been part of this group? Would fit. Sebastian thinks Phoenix was too. Not so certain. Pekoyama? If so, doubt Kuzuryuu is.
This is not a good clue. Reminder: scold Host for breaking his word at next opportunity. Asked for Mastermind's identity, not their group.
Riddle? "ask around" they won't talk. "from the start" before we came here? Who could have come as a group? Lawyers- Phoenix is dead, not "here". If they forgot they haven't known from start to now.
Everyone has been a suspect. Everyone has been in danger. Who has been a suspect but not been in much danger? Me- was only briefly considered during Peko's trial. Chiaki- barely considered last trial. Wriggle- Wasn't seriously considered during our trial.
Are the executed still alive? Executions could be illusions. Why we never receive the bodies. May explain Feferi- Mastermind is no longer in the castle?
[It looks like Maribelle keeps coming back to her notes to add to them as thoughts occur to her.]
Sebastian- throws the group to the wolves to keep appearances? Suspicious character. Demon/some kind of dark mage. None of the four argued with him. One of the most obviously suspicious characters, by age, gender and knowledge. All the books here- "the butler did it".
Feferi seemed to be the one trying to imply that the Mastermind wasn't evil- also only one to actually commit murder. Chiaki and Kuzuryuu helped her kill Ian-
[There are two sheets of paper kept under Maribelle's pillow. The first one has a drawing on it- very roughly sketched but still terrifying. Maribelle isn't much of an artist, but she gets the general idea of the beast down on paper.]
[The following handwriting is very shaky and messy by Maribelle's standards.]
Reasons the dreams must be false:
- No one would ever be so foolish as to resurrect the Fell Dragon. - Chrom would not fall. - Robin would not - I would never leave Lissa alone - I do not have a son - Lissa does not have a son - Olivia and Panne do not have sons (to my knowledge) - If we did they would fight after we died, they would guard each other with their lives, they would not fall before the forces of evil - I would not leave my child to a world where he would watch his friends die protecting him and then be cut down himself.

This is a game. Names are labels. Thief, Barbarian, White Mage. Was this a label given to a player like the group? If so, need to save them too.
Promised Chiaki-Mastermind. Host. Audience. Is there anyone else?

Why do this so many times? What is the goal they did not get before? What do they want?
Has the Mastermind ever been caught before? There has never been a no kill week. Mastermind has team of killers just in case, must happen every game.
