Anders - WTF?

[Laurel]

Darn it Kennon- is it possible to move the last three posts over to the correct thread? Or just delete and we can repost them there.... I was copying into the wrong one! Sorry guys!

To answer Gertie... that was the shifty eye, asI have no idea currently- have to find the sheet with all the check marks. I want to say yes, but that's just cause I know she has had it in past having seen the fun of fireballs and tourches and flame blades and trees crashing and such

Split and re-merged! Wow!

That's perfect! The fire, though magical in origin, is now non-magical. It should solve the problems. Does L'Aurel have it prepared?

The leger is the book, the stuff is moving in and out of the SAFE. The leger tracks the kingdoms debts and leins, while the vaults would hold some of the physical wealth of the kingdom.

Like what? What do you think you can find there?

The items contained therein might give us a clue as to what Anders was looking for.

The chests are all stacked up, locks unopened, in relatively neat piles. The vault door stands open.

Well then, we should put out that fire.

Well then, we should put out that fire.

But what will putting out the fire tell you?

It's pretty unlikely that the leger for the vaults has entries for drakespowder in, drakespowder out, etc. That kind of thing would be madness - why would you keep drakespowder in the kingdom's vaults?

What you can learn from this place may not be so obvious that it can found scrawled across a page.

Why was Anders here? And what was he doing? Did he know what he was doing? If what he was doing and what he thought he was doing were not the same things, how was he fooled? Who fooled him? If he was behind the tower explosion, shouldn't he have been running? Hiding?

There may not be answers, but there are things at which you can guess...clues that will help you deduce what you cannot simply be told.

For the moment, there's still a body there, burning, slumped over a burning legerbook.

Since the body is there- it did not change correct? Like turn into a snake or horribly scaly being correct? The rest of us may be to far away to see, but Archonus is right there.

Trying to get the pieces together

Even if the ledgers don't tell us anything specific they are here and thus we should put them in the bag of holding.

So what's happened:

-Mages were spying on us and tried to cast something on us in the tower (Did anyone get the spell? I know Jansten saw them, but...?)
-The tower was sabotaged and drakes powder placed at it's base thus in a timed explosion causing the tower to fall
-One of the mages in his fright said Anders was behind it all
-The guards from the Council were sent away from the building by Anders
-Anders was in a room with draconids
-Anders is in a room with barrels of drakes powder

What else?

It still looks like a half-orc, slumped over a book.
