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

"Perhaps if the necromancers are searching for Ispin for some reason? Did you happen to learn whether he was one of those killed in the fire that destroyed the prison?"

Vadim stands as the others return, welcoming them back to the manse with a look that bespeaks his desire to find out what they've learned. He takes the proffered tea and sips as the discussion progresses.

"Certainly I'll accompany you tomorrow, Dannis. Father Grimburrow seems rather . . . well . . . grim. I'm glad you were able to persuade him to grant us the use of his library.

"For our part, Falco and I didn't learn anything new, but we did confirm our suspicion that the Professor was murdered by the Whispering Way." He pauses as a look of uncertainty crosses his features briefly. "At least, we did if the spirits were truthful."

"Mmm, me recommend we not count on truthful spirits. Better we just smash everyone gets in our way, yes, whether they whisper or not."

"While I have seen magics in use that force the dead to speak the truth, it is my experience that such spirits will try to twist the truth to suit their own desires."

Besharrn Blacktusk Half-Orc Ranger3

"Besharrn not know if him smash spirit good or not, but him sure try -- WHAPPOW!" says the half-orc with an exuberant flourish. "Besharrn not mean spit on Dannis. Here, him wipe."

Falco

Falco looks up as the others return but continues pouring over the professor's books and in particular the notes written in the margins but wholly loses his concentration when Besharrn rants "WHAPPOW!".

Falco smiles and then begins to laugh heartily. He gets up and proclaims, "I needed a break anyway. I'm not much of a tea sort, do we have anything stronger?"

[sblock=GM] Falco was attempting to gain some knowledge from studying the books though he really doesn't have any knowledge skills. Maybe even any insight into what the professor was looking at when studying these particular books?[/sblock]

Vadim smiles at the antics of his companions and thinks about the power of adversity to bring men together . . . though he'd known these people only a couple of days, he found himself becoming quite comfortable with them.

"Well, I've had enough for now. Though we didn't find out much, I feel as though I've put in a hard day at a dig . . . I'm off to bed."
