final trial
[After a harrowing couple of hours, some illuminating discoveries, a couple of new allies, and a couple of new injuries, eventually Garfield's warning comes to mind. Shit's popping off. And now that you've got all of the ritual components (minus the hammer which, well, you have its owner), it might be time to return to the trial room and see if you can do something about it.
Reconvene in the Great Hall and make your way upstairs.]

Who are you? What do you want?

I'm Death, little girl.
And since you all did me such a big favor setting me free, I'll let you in on a secret.
The real Saint Germain was in the theater. I saw how much you liked him, and I thought, since I'm trapped in this fucker's body, I can use that to toy around with your little seance.
Humans are so easy to trick.

Greetings, intrepid heroes. This is Azul- listen and listen carefully. You are not alone. Us dearly departed are going to help you, since even Death can only wish to grasp hold of us now.
[ He speaks like he would back at home amongst a sea of his own students. The Dealmaker, the Housewarden of Octavinelle is here to command your attention. ]
Blood, Fire, Metal, Water, Air, Earth. We will break each ward protecting the artifacts in order, which will buy you all a small window of time to destroy those specific artifacts in order as well.
[ He points to each artifact with the sword as he speaks. ]
Once they're all dealt with, it will render our skeletal friend completely mortal for a brief time. Use that time wisely and take him down for good.
Any questions? I don't have much time, so be quick about it.
[ Since you know, Death is kind of looming over all of them. ]

Good to see you again, Azul. And the assistance is appreciated.
We'll use what time you will buy us well.

It's good to see you again as well, Felix.

And... I'm glad to see that all of you are all right. [...] In a certain sense of the word.

[ A sixth sense, if you wi- ]
We're all rooting for you over here.

Nice to have heard from you once again, Ashengrotto.

[And he's a little smugly pleased to hear from the dead again as well. The Patron being furious about it is a good bonus.]
All of you, hold out a little longer. Once we settle this...

Oh boo hoo, you poor, unfortunate soul. Sorry, but we're off the menu.
