Red Truth

The Red Truth is a rule and weapon introduced by Beatrice in Turn of the Golden Witch. The Red Truth was conceived as a counter to Battler Ushiromiya's Devil's Proof.

Anything stated in the Red Truth is a fact that can be presented unquestionably without evidence. However, while the Red Truth is undeniable, it can have multiple interpretations. The Red Truth is an essential part of a battle between Humans and witches. If the Human side doesn't believe in the Red Truth then the trust between the two sides will falter and the game will move into a stalemate.

Turn of the Golden Witch

1. When I speak the truth, I will use red.
2. Everything I speak in red is the truth.
3. Regardless of whether they were living or dead, the six people definitely entered through the door. (This refers to the six murders in the chapel.)
4. Only one key to the chapel exists.
5. It is impossible to unlock the lock to the chapel without the chapel's key.
6. When the door to the chapel is locked, it prevents any and all methods of entry or exit.
7. The six people definitely entered through 'this front door.'
8. This morning, Rosa definitely took an envelope out of Maria's handbag, and thereby obtained the genuine key to the chapel. ("This morning" refers to the morning of the second day.)
9. The key to the chapel truly was the object inside the envelope I gave Maria.
10. The letter that I handed over to Maria and the one Rosa opened are the same thing.
11. The only master keys are the ones that each servant holds, one per person.
12. ...there are absolutely no types of hidden doors. (This refers to Jessica's room.)
13. This door is the only way in or out.
14. The only way to lock this door is with Jessica's single key or the master keys, only one of which is held by each servant.
15. ...the window is locked from the inside.
16. Kanon was killed in this room.
17. When locked, entry is not possible by any means.
18. No trick could have the effect of locking the door from the outside without using a key.
19. Kanon was killed in this room. (Refers to R2-16)
20. There are no hidden doors in this room. (Refers to R2-12)
21. There is no way to get in or out other than the door and the window. (Refers to R2-13 and R2-15)
22. ...there are no hidden doors. (Refers to R2-20)
23. [Those are] kept in the key box in the center of the servants' room.
24. [There are several keys to the servants' room, but] all of those are inside the key box.
25. Entry or exit is impossible except for the single door and single window.
26. ...and those were both locked.
27. The door and the window do not permit any kind of entry or exit when they are locked.
28. ...it is impossible to unlock the door without a key to the servants' room or the master key.
29. No one exists in this room except all of you. ('All of you' refers to Battler, George, Maria, Rosa, Genji, Gohda, and Shannon.)
30. When Jessica's corpse was discovered, only Battler, George, Maria, Rosa, Genji, Gohda, Shannon, Kumasawa, and Nanjo were in Jessica's room.
31. Jessica is also included.
32. Therefore, both in the case of Jessica's room and the case in this servants' room, no humans exist that you were not aware of.
33. No one is hiding.
34. No method exists by which the door can be locked from the outside without using a key. Regarding the window, no method exists by which it could somehow be locked from the outside.
35. You are incompetent.
36. hi-hhihihhihihihihihihihihihihi
37. Come on, Ushiromiya Battler, kneel.
38. If you accept me, all of the riddles will be resolved.
39. With my power, any kind of closed room can be created or destroyed.
40. I'll make you my favorite furniture.
41. I'll love you so much, and make you my toy until you turn to ashes.
42. *cackle*cackle*cackle*hihihihihihihihihihihyahyahyahhahhahahaha-hhahahahhahhahhahhahhahhahha
43. There are only five master keys.
44. There are only five master keys.
45. ...there are only five master keys.
46. I keep my promises. (Said by Beatrice)
47. Natsuhi's room was exactly the same, just like usual.
48. The door and the windows were locked from the inside.
49. There is no fraud or trick, there is no means of secret passage and no hidden place.
50. Natsuhi's own key was in George's pocket, and the inside of the room was closed off.
51. Only the five master keys were left, and 'Rosa' was holding all of them.
52. And let me say this, the parlor's the same.
53. The original key to the parlor is sealed in the servants' room.
54. So unlocking it without the master key is impossible! The definition of a closed room is the same as always!

Banquet of the Golden Witch

1. Of all of the doors that exist on Rokkenjima, none has a crack through which a key can slip.
2. I have the power to speak the truth in red.

21. Rosa and Maria were killed by other people.
22. I was in the room the whole time. (Said by Hideyoshi Ushiromiya in EVA's stead; "the room" refers to the room on the guesthouse's second floor.)
23. Both before and after the time period of the crime...
24. Kyrie was thinking that food was unnecessary.
25. ...she claimed that they should not leave the guesthouse. ("She" refers to Kyrie Ushiromiya)
26. [And yet, she herself] suggested that they leave the guesthouse to get food. ("She" refers to Kyrie Ushiromiya)
27. ...the reason she changed her mind was not told to anyone, nor was it written down. ("She" refers to Kyrie Ushiromiya)

29. Kyrie did not leave anything written down.
30. After Jessica was injured, Eva was always under Battler's supervision. (From this point on, all remaining red text for this game refers to this scenario.)
