Ru Brike, human slayer
Ru puzzles over the story.
"Goblins and trolls are certainly stinky enough that I wouldn't be surprised they'd love that sort of cheese," Ru quips, then shakes his head. "But I can't imagine they like it enough to decimate a dairy and drag off the cheesemaker."
He skewers Alvise with a look and a disarming smile as he asks, "Now, I'm sure any friend of Lightfoot--" here he indicates Samad--"wouldn't get himself mixed up in anything unseemly, but you'd not be the first person I've met who had mischief going on under his nose and didn't realize it.
"I imagine being stuck in that cellar would give a body a lot of time to reflect on events, so anything you remember, not just from the attack, but from your time working here, that speaks to something other than cheesemaking going on might be helpful. Were there, say, odd hours of delivery? Were you allowed to load your own cart, or did anyone insist on being in charge of that kind of thing? Maybe someone who never used to help suddenly started. Anything that ... stood out from the ordinary, I suppose.
"And names. If you can remember any names that were bandied about regularly, especially names folks tended to whisper or say with any particular reverence. I can't imagine goblins and an troll-like-something just randomly decided they needed blue-veined fourme d'ambert to bolster their breath. Chances are they had someone incent them."
