[QUOTE="spyscribe, post: 1130135, member: 5808"] [b]Part the Very Twenty-Seventh[/b] [i]In which: we return to the beginning... in a manner of speaking. (as recorded by Fajitas)[/i] Everyone makes their preparations to leave. Good-byes are made to Immobile and Essela, supplies are replenished, and Henrik, Amelia, Dennis, and Andrew all take seats in the cart. Before they go, Immobile quietly draws Anvil aside. “I don’t mean to alarm you, but something happened last night you should know about.” “Indeed?” “There was a break-in at the Vojer estate last night. Lord Vojer, the one you purchased Amelia from? He was murdered.” Anvil considers that, very quietly. “How?” “Beaten to death, rather violently. I’ve taken steps to ensure that this case falls on my desk, but I thought you’d like the warning.” “Is there any reason to think the girl is involved?” Anvil asks. Immobile shrugs. “It doesn’t seem likely. She was here all night, and she hardly seems capable of beating a full-grown man to death. Still, it’s unsettlingly similar to what happened to her last master. It might be a coincidence, but… I don’t know. If you want to get her out of the city, you’d better go soon. People are going to demand Justice, and they might not care if it’s truly just.” “Very well,” Anvil says. “Thank you, my friend. If you are ever in Dar Pykos, consider me at your disposal.
