-Joket, Ganondorf-

Another former-Qin had disappeared. Not just one this time, but a whole group of them.

Ganon looked out to see the state of the city, and he did not like what he saw. The situation was becoming steadily worse. The former-Qin were now moving only in groups and were going so far as to keep a wide distance from any and all Majora. Where every Majora walked, the former-Qin would flee to the other side of the street, put their hands on their weapons, and watch them warily. It made Ganon desire to consficate their weapons.

The disappearances were always silent and hidden, the bodies were never found.

Until now. A body was found. Sort of...

"Surely it is not as bad as he said." The former-Qin governor argued. "For a Qin to have done this?! There is no proof! It is a ridicules claim!"

"If our man is right, we need to look into this. This may be the proof you want." Nabooru Majora argued. "Whether the murderer is a Majoran or Qin.

"I understand that, Lady Nabooru. But you must understand, I find it difficult to believe a claim of... what was it again?"

"Artistic murder." Ganondorf imputed.

"Yes, just who in their right mind would do such a thing?! Murder is motivated by greed or desperation! Not... whatever this is!"

"Then you are right to say 'who in their right mind' because this person may not be of the right mind." Nabooru said.

The governor sighed in frustration. He ran his hands through his hair. He muttered something about fate frowning on him.

Ganondorf said, "You don't have to go see for yourself if you find such things outside of your tastes, but it should be investigated. Speak nothing of this. I personally will go and see if the claim is true. If it is, then we have a problem and the last thing we need is the people knowing until we have the situation under control and we can spin it in a way that will keep a riot off everyone's hands. Because trust me when I say if there is a riot and if my people are hurt... I will be short on mercy."

The governor gulped fearfully and nodded stiffly. 

"I'll go with you." Nabooru stood from her seat.

"If you insist." Ganon replied. He didn't care one way or another. If she felt this was the best use for her time, then that was up to her. He looked to his twin-mothers. "Mothers, if you will join me. Your eyes could prove useful."

"Oh goody!" "Artistic murder!" The two cackled. They rubbed their old hands. The former-Qin governor eyed them.

Outside the Majoran guard to have reported the finding escorted them out of the mansion and to the place in question.

It was a run-down shack in the older, torn down parts of the city. Immediately Ganon sensed something was wrong.

"Where are all the people?" Nabooru wondered. Ganon hummed in agreement.

Kagami growled and flattened his ears as they neared a hut the guide pointed out. At a point the large wolf simply refused to take a step further. The house was barely a house. It would be more accurately described as a pile of wood on four sticks.

"This place looks like wolf feces." Ganon complained. "Are you sure this is the place?"

The guard confirmed it.

"No surprise there... Good place to hide a body. No one would look here." Nabooru whispered.

The twin mothers, being witches, flew over their heads high above. As they only had one large broom to share at the moment, they mostly bickered and argued over who was controlling it. Kagami barked from a distance.
