Kaede Akamatsu's Death

Kaede is absent in the morning. Upon visiting her room, which is closed, but not locked, you find her corpse.

All her limbs have been tied to the bed. One arm is tied with Kaede's shirt. Her legs and other arm have been chained. The chains appear to be from Sodor Steamworks. She has been stabbed multiple times through the abdomen, the knife still lingering in her stomach. The knife is the same variant as the one from Shirogane's back. If you look closely at her scared face, you can see light lip prints on Kaede's forehead.
