[QUOTE="Cerebral Paladin, post: 1659365, member: 3448"] Session 14 5/17, evening As the group leaves the monastery, Lhovrik says, "Too bad we couldn't figure out more about that. We have a ship to catch." Ginara reacts predictably. "Lhovrik! Moreth was a companion of ours, and somebody murdered him. We owe it to him to find out what happened." "We don't owe him anything. We were just traveling together, and then he got himself killed. The less we get involved, the better. And we need to make it back to Lir Sanek. We've been away for too long." Sister Aurora looks at Lhovrik sharply. "The Truth of Moreth's death ought to be revealed. It shouldn't be dangerous for us to investigate a little." Dove chimes in, "It shouldn't take us long to find out whatever more there is to find out. It'll only cost us a day or two." "You can go back to Lir Sanek tonight if you want, Lhovrik. But I want to investigate further, so if you go tonight, I'm staying behind!" "Fine. If you insist, we can stay for another day or two. But no more. What are we going to do, anyway? Do we even have any leads?" Melania thinks for a bit. "I want to ask some more questions at the inn. Someone has to have noticed something." Melania strides into the common room and orders a dinner, tipping heavily. She strikes up a conversation with the barmaid. "I'm trying to find a friend of mine who was supposed to be staying here. Did anyone leave unexpectedly this morning?" "Not really... a couple of people checked out in the late morning." She pauses after she finishes pouring Melania's ale. "Now that I think about it... there were a couple people who paid up late last night. They said they wanted to get on the road early in the morning." "That might be my friend's group." Melania describes the body the guard sergeant showed them. "Does that sound like one of them?" "Yes, one of them did look like that." "Could you tell me the names of the other people who were with him? What did they look like? And did they say where they were going?" "I dunno... if he's your friend, wouldn't you know who he was travelling with and where he's going?" The barmaid looks around uncomfortably. "The owner really doesn't like us talking about the guests..." Melania slips a gold coin onto the table. "It won't cause any problems. I'm just trying to meet up with my friends." At this point, the owner notices the delay in the barmaid's rounds and walks over. When the barmaid sees her coming, she quickly heads off to handle other patrons. "Can I help you?" Melania smiles winningly at the middle-aged woman who is looming above her. "I just had a few questions about a few of your guests...." Melania slides a stack of coins across the table. Melania smiled winningly, but not persuasively. The owner glares at her. "The reputation of my inn is worth more than your bribe.
