FINAL TRIAL

[When the doors open, the killed also find themselves allowed into the Room of Reckoning as well. And - similar to the living - they, too, have a table, with their own names and places and sitting pillows. They, too, receive the note on their phones with a ping.

The dead, however, have something else that the living do not have.

They can see that there is someone sitting on the gold pillow by the stairs.]

[Kurama clenches his own blank pin in one hand before moving to slide his arms around Goro. It's easier, holding on to him, to stay where he is and watch. His head lowers slightly to rest against Goro's.]

It's infuriating... We awake here after death, are told to fight and grow, and we do. But we cannot fight when it matters most.

I know...I want nothing more than to gouge her eyes out and gut that bird. But I doubt anything we do will be much more than a distraction, and if she's that powerful there...

[He doesn't think he needs to finish that sentence.]

We don't want to draw her attention unless it would make or break this fight.

[He really doesn't. Kurama understands entirely, no matter how much he dislikes it.]

Patience... Waiting for the right moment. I'm usually better at it.
