Missing!
-
(( Celad looks around the gathering. His usual cheerful expression displaced by a look of cold anger.))
I know we can not go to Peltarch, and I know that there are some people who still think there is a chance that the murderer is not Jaelle. Thats fine with me. All I want is for the one who is guilty, to pay. Even now I am hearing of rumors that a third killing has happened in Peltarch itself. Now whether it is related to the others? I do not know.
But, I do know that someone who kills for the pleasure of it, as this bitch seems to do, will be out looking for another victim. I say we give her one.
((His eyes scan the group, settling on Thorn))
See, I can avoid being rash when I have to. ((small slightly twisted grin))
Just in case it is Jaelle, we need someone either she does not know or a very good disguise. We will surround the "victim" with people under spells or potions of invisibility. The only real queston is where? Where will she strike next?
((Looks around the group again))Any ideas? Anything at all? We need to do this together. Us, the Hold, Spellweaver, the Circle, even Oscura. If we work together we can catch her.
((Sits back and waits for their response))
-
Labur happens to already be in the Grapevine drinking his usual helping of ale. After seeing the group amass he too stays to listen sipping another ale as he waits
-
Kylar makes his way to the Grapevine and sits down with the others
-
Thorn steps in to the back door of the grapevine. With a nod to Kresha, and small wave to the shy Lana, he makes his way to the bar. Holding up one finger to Yumiko, she poors him some tea. They exchange a few words before he turns to look over his shoulder, watching the others, perking his ears and listening closely to whatever plan they may have.
-
(( Celad asks those who helped in the search to meet him at the Grapevine Inn, he might have a plan to catch the murderer.))
-
(( A lone figure stands above the newly dug grave of the mudered boy Horace. He stands in the rain for a while, then kneels down and places some flowers on the grave. He bows his head, and the says three soft words))
I am sorry.
-
(( The boy Horace was found in the river by a fisherman. He had been dead for a couple of days. A divining was done on some flesh found under his fingernails. It showed that the flesh belonged to Jaelle. Aramuil is speaking to the peltarch senate and the chancellor Dwin. Only time will tell if justice will find her.))
-
Unsurprisingly, the Ranger Yngdír has apparently decided to stay out of the investigation; no-one can truly understand his reasons, yet the most likely is that he feels the Norwick Militia will approach him in the unlikely event that they can't handle it.
-
Struck by an idea, Kylar heads to spellweaver to see if the mages can help discover anything about this mystery woman
-
After not getting any information from the riverboat captain, Kylar heads back to meet with the group, hoping they had more success with the gate guards, though suspecting they have not
-
Kylar taps his chin in thought, after hearing no one in the grapevine has seen this woman "Welp I guess the next step would be to start askin roun town to see if anyone has seen this woman at all. I suggest we each go to a different place, then meet back at the inn with our findins. I'm gonna go ask the riverboat captain, why don you two points to them check with the gaurds at the two gates?" Kylar then heads off to question the riverboat captain and the ticket seller
-
Celad snaps his fingers
Hey, that discription matches a woman wanted in Oscura for the same thing!! A man named Jim Bob was killed there,, maybe the same woman. I went there to help with the search.
-
Like I said lass….she asked fer directions ta the Grapevine...he gave 'er directions...'n that were it... she seems slightly annoyed that she had to repeat herself.
-
"thank ya very much ma'am and again 'm sorry for your loss" Kylar heads to the Grapevine and begins to ask the staff questions about a woman in black and a cloak
-
She stands there a moment, her grey brow furrowed in deep thought. Well this strange lass showed up askin' fer directions ta the Grapevine. She were dressed in black. I nae could see 'er face as she were wearin' a hood. Horace told 'er which way ta go 'n that night he disappeared…
-
Kylar nods One las question ma'am and i'll leave ya to your mournin. 'ave ya seen any strangers lurkin about your lands recently, say within the last few weeks or so?
-
We only spend time wit a few locals. Nae 'ave people who be hatin' us as far as I reckon.
-
"what bout any friends you had? Anyone that ya might of had visit or help ya two out that he would have trusted? 'm not tryin ta be nosey or upset ya more, just tryin to help figure out who coulda done this"
-
celad stops her and gives her some gold and a single red rose this is for his memory, the rose is to help ease your sorrrow, it is from a friend of mine, she heard of your loss and wished to ease some of your suffering. please be assured, we will not rest till his murderer is caught.
-
She shakes her head.
He were a quiet lad…nae many friends...
