Glau tugs on his beard as he listens to the answers. "What was your relationship with House Vladaam?" he asks.

Glau nods, and turns to the priest. "Thank you. First, I want to know if he can describe those who killed him. Second, who would have cause to kill all of the Knights of the Golden Cross?"

Glau turns to his companions. "Suggestions?" he asks quietly. [OOC - I mentioned a couple of questions I have in mind upthread: "Who killed you?" (or perhaps "Describe your killers") and "Who had motive to destroy the Knights of the Golden Cross?". Those answers might dictate the third...

"Are you sure you know the heart of this man?" Glau asks. "We seek the services of one who might commune with his spirit. We are of course prepared to offer a donation" [OOC - Glau attempts to convince the priest to aid us (Diplomacy)]

"That's the truth of it. This bounty was news to us." Glau scratches his beard. "It does seem a little strange that House Vladaam would hire you for this task, and then put out a bounty." Glau's baritone carries easily over the crowds. "Almost like they don't trust you to succeed." He...

That's what I figured. Makes sense. I avoided any obviously problematic spells in my spell list. I think I'll hold off on using any suggestions as well.

"Well of course the Watch is watching! They've been quite helpful. I don't see how that's a problem." Glau squints at the man, then spreads his hands and smiles. "Forgive us, friend. We've seen some gruesome sights this morning, and haven't eaten yet today. My momma always said breakfast...

I'm away from my books at the moment - would use of a Bard's Suggestion ability violate Ptolus' anti-enchantment laws?

OOC - What are the Five Cuts? Is this a group Glau has heard about before?

"I'll go with the body and see if I can find a priest who can speak with the dead. Do the rest of you want to come, or shall I meet up with you later?" Does it look like Quaelin was robbed, or is he still wearing wizardly gear? I'll cast Detect Magic and inspect the body. Glau will accompany...

"The watchmen at the Citadel said Fillasti here was on his way there when he was ambushed. Do we know that for sure? Why attack him first? One mistake and he could easily warn the rest of the Knights, giving them time to prepare." Glau taps his chin in thought. "Perhaps the killer slew...

Now that we've moved on to the second murder scene I think of a bunch more things I want to know from the first. Figures... Are subscriptions broken for everyone, or just me? It's harder to keep up with the threads without them.

Glau glances at the body, then focuses on the watchman. "How did the watch learn of this murder? What time did you arrive at the scene?" Glau pulls out his pocketwatch, checks the time, and starts jotting down numbers in his journal.

Glau stumps along beside the group, apparently lost in thought. Head down, stroking his beard, Glau slowly falls off the pace. "Wait!" he exclaims suddenly, stopping in the middle of the street. "House Vladaam!" Glau's voice carries easily over the noise of the morning traffic, but he is...

I missed that. With travel, it's got to be 2-3 hours at least. So is the city up and moving yet?

Glau considers the watchman for a moment, then claps him on the shoulder. "Well, you're no murderer then. Now this one that got away... what'd he look like?" After listening to the description, Glau turns to the rest of the group. "Are we done here? There's another murder scene yet, Kantris...

What time is it, roughly? I'd kind of like to visit a contact, but not so much that I want to roust him out of bed.

Group B action seems to be dying down. Is everyone waiting to move to the next scene?

Glau smiles at the watchman. "Nice trident you've got there. I didn't think the watch issued weapons like that."

Glau moves to stand next to the watchman, watching his companions search the room. "A grisly business," he mutters, stroking his beard. "I've seen naught like this in Ptolus before. You must have some stories though, sergeant. How long have you been with the Watch?" Glau suspects the...
