Scotley's Carrion Crown IC Part 1 The Haunting of Harrowstone

Scotley · Mar 8, 2012

Sheriff Benjen Caeller raises his hands and makes a calming gesture. "Now there is no call to get all riled up. I'm just trying to do my job. Something mighty strange is happening here. This is my jurisdiction and we don't need the council getting involved or a bunch of outsiders. My boys and I will sort this out. As Sheriff I got a right to ask questions of anybody suspicious. And you lot are about the most suspicious bunch I've seen roung here all year."

Almost as if on cue a deputy comes running up holding a large dead river rat by the tail. "Sheriff Caeller. I seen this hanging on a tree branch over yonder by the river in the brush. Looks like somebody split this critter's throat and bleed him out, but there weren't no blood on the ground around."

"Questions yes, but accusations in front of third parties who may interrpute it as we being guilty or an invitation to do violence to us you do not" then Brendan will just fix him and the crowd with a stare.

Dannis eyes narrow upon hearing the deputies report, and his face grows grim. He remains quiet, though, not willing to discuss his theories in front of the Sheriff and townsfolk.

For now the crowd remains cowed. The appearance of the exsanguinated rat has replaced the outsiders as the main focus for the moment.

"if you will excuse us sherrife, i have some shopping to do" Brendan says

Scotley · Mar 9, 2012

He seems unconcerned at your departure at this point.

Dannis turns to follow Brendan, but turns back to the Sheriff. "We are staying at the Lortimor House, Sheriff, should you have need of us. We are here to help, if you desire." With those words, the cleric follows after his companion.
