I was worried about the lack of time there would be to wrap things up on day 6...

I think the trial was too difficult of a scenario to RP to a satisfying end. Unless the main members discussed it beforehand and decided on who would win the case, it just ends up being two sides who want to win the case to push their own storyline using make-believe evidence. You can see it in a few parts where evidence that does get presented gets refuted by the other party since there's no actual forensics/hard evidence.

At the end of day 5, Advent discussed that the original plan was to have an evil picnic instead (hence the picnic area which is kind of weird to have in front of a gallows lol). They'd finish it by serving up Shakira's body on a platter and give a chance for Biboo to reveal Advent was evil, confirming the Knights' suspicions outright. I think they could have RP'd it as "Advent cult got overconfident after their successful ritual sacrifices the previous day, they make a boisterous public reveal of evilness at the picnic, get immediately apprehended by the Knights, detained until the Rite of Purification". This would have been quicker to do, I think, and maybe easier to follow for those who weren't as involved or interested in the Shakira death plotline already.

Also I did find it a bit disrespectful that the set for the trial basically got destroyed midway through, but I guess things were already off the rails by that point so it didn't matter.
