[QUOTE="Tellerian Hawke, post: 7304793, member: 6790669"] [b]Looting Margull's Study[/b] Upon your arrival, you are attacked! Respen, before you can move, a large, hairy beast leaps upon you, knocking you prone! Nel gasps in horror, and starts to chant the beginnings of a spell, until she realizes what the creature must be! The beast is fast and efficient with his weapon of choice: his tongue! He makes quick work of your face, easily covering it with slobbery kisses! The attacker, of course, is Gus, and he seems very happy to see you! He wags his tail happily as he continues his doggy greeting. [COLOR=red]"My, my, this creature seems to like you, my dear."[/COLOR][B] Nel says,[/B][COLOR=red] "Is this what they call a dog?"[/COLOR] [B]Respen chuckles and says,[/B][COLOR=blue] "Yes, but Gussy here is no ordinary dog.

Although everything appears to be roughly in its correct place, the objects in the vicinity of Margull's mirror seem to be disheveled and upset, as if a small burst of wind had knocked everything askew. The papers and the map that had been on Margull's desk are now all over the floor, although none of them are missing. The book that you and Vega had been glancing at the last time you were here is cocked at an odd angle, and open to a different page. There are also two writing quills on the floor; the inkwell is still on the desk, although it has been overturned; strangely, no ink is spilling out of it. [B]Nel whistles in appreciation,[/B][COLOR=red] "Enchanted, spill-proof, ink wells. This guy must be beyond rich."[/COLOR] As Respen walks to the window and opens it, Nel observes him.
