Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru - 7 - Requiem of the Golden Witch recap part 2

The culprit, a Beatrice-like figure with white hair starts to speak.

Let it be heard. I am one yet many. What I speak is our tale. However, this is a small world, sealed by glass and cork, with no one to hear. None shall lay eyes upon it, and my entire tale shall be sealed away, set adrift in the sea of my heart until it disappears along with the seaweed.

The two love demons are among her as well.

For us... Where and who we are hardly matters!!

Then the culprit tells about the first time she arrived at Rokkenjima in 1976, as a servant from Fukuin house, who was just starting elementary school along with Jessica...

wtf? It isn't Shannon? It shows Shannon there talking to this new servant, and that Shannon looks the same age as the Shannon from 1986?
Oh, so this servant is Lion. She wasn't killed, she was just raised by the Fukuin house and brought to Rokkenjima by Genji (who knew this girl's true origin) to work as a servant, since Natsuhi didn't accept her as a daughter. She was given the nickname Yasu by the other servants (some of which looked a lot like the 7 sisters of purgatory).

Kumasawa talks about those ghost stories again. The seal on the shrine, and how Beatrice has become a ghost, wandering around in search of a body, and how she dwells in the VIP room on the second floor... Yasu also heard about these stories from Kumasawa, and had blamed Beatrice whenever she lost a broom or something.
The witch was playing a prank on her, moving the broom to different places so she couldn't find it.

I know that turning around won't help, since she has no form. I can try to look, but I musn't look with my eyes. Once my eyes tell me there's nothing there, I won't be able to "see" anymore.

I learned that from the director of the Fukuin house. You mus'nt try to see with your eyes... you must see with the eyes of your heart.

The whole world is filled with god's love. In the many blessings of everyday life, one can see god, and angels, and the holy ghost. If you try to look at them with your eyes, you cannot see them, so you won't be able to "see" them. You won't be able to feel them or understand them. With the eyes of the

Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru - 7 - Requiem of the Golden Witch recap part 1

A dream is something drawn in the sand between the coming and receding waves. Something so fragile that it is wiped blank each time the waves draw back.

Battler created a tale only for Beatrice to read, and nobody else... This way, nobody will be able to defile her tale. A certain truth, between the two them. No matter how some witch or theatregoer tries to spin the tale, the golden truth between Battler and Beatrice will remain in tact.

There's some scene with an unknown protaganist maid, who gets fingered as the culprit by some inquisitors of heresy... Then some guy shows up and says they got the wrong culprit. He starts going off about Van Dine's rule #11. It is forbidden for a servant to be the culprit.

That's right, we are inquisitors of heresy. Felling evil witches is our job. However, we must not risk hurting the innocent.

All humans have their own personal truths. Those should only be exposed when they commit crimes. We've been given the right to expose them.
But no one, not even god, has the right to expose the innocent truths of those who have not sinned!!

He says that detectives must not forget to find the motive... the heart... without heart, a detective is just an intellectual rapist. heh...

This guy's name is Will, but that's not what everyone used to call him... Head inquisitor of heresy in SSVD... Wizard-hunting Wright.
So that whole scene was unrelated to the witch's game, and was just to introduce Will.

Later, Will arrived at Beatrice's funeral. to meet with one of the family members. on Beatrice's coffin, there was a book with words printed on the cover:

To my beloved Beatrice. October 5th, 1986

...what th... Krauss introduces himself and... his daughter, Ushiromiya Lion. Now I'm officially confused.
Will is confused by this as well, saying Kraus's child is supposed to be Jessica.

Jessica's my little sister

Will called out...

I'm here. isn't it about time you showed your face?

Bern shows up in front of Will. Lion is able to see her too, but doesn't know who she is. Bern just made the catbox bigger by adding Lion, one of the pieces who has a possibility of appearing in the game.

Bern asked Will to solve the murder of Beatrice. He brings up Van Dine's twenty rules again.

Rule #1. It is forbidden to have a crime without all
