DAY 19 (30th Ches) cont...
In any event, I had something important to do. After stopping off at the watch post I arranged to talk to Hagar.
What a dreadful fellow he is. He head butted me a total of five times during our conversation on Market Square.
It'll take ages to get the dents out of my helmet.
It was a waste of time though. He said the talisman belonged to Raviril and he definitely hadn't been at the murder scene as he, Hagar, had killed this chap some time before.
Well, if I had the resources I could have this guy for murder and assaulting an officer of the watch, but life is hard enough at the moment without making more enemies. Just add his name to the list of people too powerful to arrest.
Talked to Abrix later on, discussed the law regarding the use of magic.
That evening I know Fenrir had dinner with his folks. I think Giselle was there too. We all caught up with him at the Gentle Mermaid where Nes was hosting a party to help bring in business for the Rat Catcher's
Guild as he is now the owner.
He'd invited all the right people anyway, the guildmasters of traders, butchers, bakers and the light. Even the Dock Ward ward civilar was there, who I would say is Abrix's boss.
But when Fenrir arrived, he pointed out this harlequin that was behaving oddly, one of the entertainers.
We dragged him into a room and made him unmask. Lo and behold it was Eno!
Fenrir decided to confront him with our suspicions and we eventually got all, or at least, most of his story. He was the murderer from the Festhall all right although there did seem to be extenuating circumstances. A well known traveller called Volothun Geddan had been at the fest hall and had unmasked the wenches there as dopplegangers!
Not only that, but Eno's girlfriend has turned out to be one too and when a paladin watchman killed her during the confusion Eno went berserk and killed him. He then killed a bunch of others.
Eno probably would have killed me too if I'd attempted to do anything other than offer the hand of 'friendship'. I don't think he likes watchmen that much, but for the moment he's going to have to go on the same list as Hagar.
Much as I'd love to bring this murderer to justice, I would have to turn out the whole post to do it and he may be useful to us at the moment in our fight against the Mystery Group.
Anyway, we called in Raya and talked some more. He apparently came back to the city when he'd heard about the rescue of Erin Wicks, who apparently is his daughter. That puts us in his good books anyway, but its rather disturbing to hear that connection.
The more we talked, the more I realised he was dangerously insane.
Just when I thought things couldn't get any better, another 'friend' turns out to be nothing like how they first appeared.
Oh - before I forget - I should mention that Fenrir, busy lad, also set up something with a monk of Tyr, the husband of Esvele. They knew about the necromancer on Belnimbra street and asked about the 'Sphere of Grave Mist' that the dead chap had mentioned in his demonic notes.
He has Tosscobble in custody apparently.
Esvele's husband is interested in getting his hands on this Sphere and says it is in a tower owned by Darwel Umbruskor.
If we are going to do it, we should strike quickly, as in tomorrow morning.
