On her right cheek and palm is dried blood.Taking another look, the watchman Larry suddenly does a double take."Gods! She was Lucia Vorloi! Bad news indeed.You're new to the city.  See, she was the niece of Baron Vorloi.  He's a big shot - an influential merchant as well as a Baron.I heard that Lucia recently spurned Stephanos Torenescu.  I can't blame her - the guy's a pompous bastard and everyone knows it.  If this has something to do with that ... well, hobgoblins are the least of our problems.As for you guys, don't leave the city. I'll have to put out word at the gate, just a formality, you understand.  You're not suspects, not in my book, but you are witnesses or ... something.  Let us know if you change inns.You are free to go for now, but I assure you, you will be called in for questioning at some point."He looks thoughtful.  After a while he adds "We need to solve this thing soon.  If we don't, there could be a search for scapegoats - to keep the peace.  But I assure you, I'll do my best to prevent that."</blockquote>
