Rain falls from the sky. Rivulets of water run down the surfaces of the towers and trace familiar patterns on the unusual architecture of Sharn. The rain and wind obscures vision, making anything but pinpoints of everbright lanterns difficult to make out and making the complex and seemingly random latticework of bridges, walkways, and towers even more difficult to navigate to the uninitiated. In other words, a typical night in the City of Towers.
Watcher
"Oh, my, we're so late," the provost mumbled as he walked quickly through the rain. He had a meeting with Lady Elaydren d'Cannith tonight, a woman with whom he's been planning an expedition of some kind. It was on her suggestion that he hired a bodyguard, although Watcher doesn't know her personally. The meeting was actually supposed to have started about ten minutes ago; Provost Geldam has been known to get absorbed in his work and forget the time, but even for him this is late. "I wouldn't be surprised now if E hasn't sent someone to look for me; maybe we'll catch him on the way.."
On the skybridge ahead, barely visible in the everbright lantern light, a figure stumbles and falls, crying out in a voice that sounds female, but just slightly... off, somehow. "P-Provost?" the figure says quietly, and Geldam rushes forward to help her up, leaving Watcher behind a few steps--just enough.
The provost freezes, then lightning strikes as he slumps to the ground, and in the light Watcher catches a glint off steel. The figure makes a grab at the bag in Geldam's hand, but then spots Watcher and runs, vaulting over the edge of the bridge and disappearing from view...

Raysuldra and Aesha
As you move through the city on this dreary and ominous night, a cloaked figure on a skybridge connecting Dalannon Tower to the Kelsa Spire catches your attention as it makes several quick, jerky moves. A flash of lightning reveals two other forms, one lying on the floor of the bridge and the second running toward them, only moments away. The first figure dashes to the edge of the bridge and vaults over the railing, disappearing from view...

Kyria, Storm, Jaren, and Alex
The rain masks sounds and obscures vision, making everything but the rain itself hard to make out. The rain itself is not unusual for the city, either, but something seems off tonight... There is a hint of danger in the air, and the silence seems ready to shatter.
(None of you spot the murder or the murderer, but you can see the other PCs in the area, and can react to anything out of the ordinary that Raysuldra, Aesha, or Watcher do)
