During the quest "Prelude of White Dews and Black Waves," you will have to investigate a murder case and prove the innocence of a new friend, the magician Lyney.

This stage of the quest presents a small logical puzzle, the solution of which will resolve the dispute with Furina. The Traveler needs to compare the known facts and come to a conclusion that sheds light on the story.

Possible Assumptions

You are given a choice of 6 pieces of evidence, each of which you found after examining the crime scene:

• Option to Leave the Court – no one could leave the room;
• Porter Cowell – information about the criminal;
• Discarded Clothing – the girl could have changed clothes;
• Unidentified Sound – perhaps a result of a struggle in the basement;
• Lyni's Alibi – confirms he wasn't in the basement, meaning someone else made the noise;
• Ventilation Shaft – the criminal couldn't escape this way, or they would have encountered Lyni, who was exiting from there.

From the conclusions drawn, we can determine that the evidence of the conflict is the loud noise from the basement. The clue appears as a booklet with an ear depicted – click on it.

Choosing the Answer

The correct answer to solve the question is: "Strange Sound During the Magic Show", which will be explained in the quest's storyline later on. After selecting this option, all the present witnesses will confirm your hunch and agree with your argument.
