Hmm, even after all of this...she must be something.
Lynn shrugged slightly, as if to say it was not particularly important anyway.
You are right, of course. The people do need to eat. If there is something I can do here, perhaps. Without a way to procure supplies though...well it might be difficult, or even imposssible, without the sort of assistance you had.

Outside the butchery.
Lynn cocked an eyebrow at the raven's announcement.
It's calvery Ed, calvery.
What Edward said. Carvery, carvery.

Following along, Dj'hân tugs lightly on the hem of Lynn's dress to get her momentary attention. Peering up at the beautiful half-elven woman the halfling boy inquires innocently: "Ain't it ca-val-ry?"
Having removed his liripoop, Lynn sees that the boy has pulled out a folded piece of paper from his cap and is offering it up to the woman. Assuming she looks it over, she sees that a corner of the paper is charred and that it appears to be an unfinished love letter to someone referred to as "My Dearest M."

Yes, just as I said...calvery.
Lynn smiled and then quickly changed the subject.
What is it you have there?
She took the scorched note and looked it over.
Hmmm.
Carefully folding it back up, she handed it back to the tiny halfling.
Interesting, this might be helpful. Good work, little one.
Who was this mysterious "M". Rich, powerful, and evidently quite beautiful, Lynn tried to think of any of the nobles who might fight that description.

Like master, like familiar.
That and I can't spell.

The knee-high halfling boy positively beams with delight upon hearing the enchanting half-elven woman's words of praise. Grinning from ear to ear, Dj'hân stuffs the folded paper back down into his liripoop before pulling the red cap back on his disheveled head. The urchin then skips gleefully ahead of the delegation, the long hippogriff feather in his cap tracing lazy arcs through the air above his head.
[sblock=OOC]I guess this is why Lynn is a sorcerer rather than a wizard; she never learnt to spell. *rimshot*[/sblock]

"M"... The first candidate that comes to mind would be Melyia Arkona. The Arkona family practically own Old Korvosa, and all manner of scandalous rumours surround the relationship between Melyia and her brother Glorio. It seems... unlikely that she would be involved with a lowly Sergeant-at-arms, but several pieces of circumstantial evidence fit. The Arkonas would be in a good position to get goods and livestock past the embargo. There are rumours that they are involved with the Korvosan underworld. The silver dagger has a Vudran design to it, and the Arkonas are well known for their Vudran connections.

Two guard sergeants appear.
"Your, er, bird told us we'd find you here," says one. "Hello Verik."
His companion nudges him in the ribs. "We're not supposed to fraternise with the prisoner, remember," he says. To Edmond he says "Nice work, sir. We'll accompany you and your captives to the Citadel. Marshal Kroft is waiting for you."

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
OOC: how long before morning? Do we have time to set up an ambush if there is delivery in the morning? And we could provide meat to unfortunates until it runs out. And snoop around some more and maybe find what side business there was (especialy if we can come up with alter self scroll or similar magics to look like the guards)

It's Edward, Edward, the raven squawked from Lynn's shoulder.
Shush...
She turned and smiled apologetically at the guards.
I'm glad you were able to make sense of him, he ca...OW!
The big black bird rapped Lynn on the head with its beak, flapping off before she could retaliate.
...he can be a pain.
Lynn looked around at the others.
Well, let's put this to rest, shall we?

Neurotic, theres about 4-5 hours before sunrise (the attack too place some time after midnight, I reckon about 1am). You would have plenty of time to set up an ambush, explore the premises some more etc. if you wished. The two Korvosan Guards are kind of expecting you to come with them with the prisoners, but I'll leave it up to you whether you do or not.
Dj'hân has the front door key to ATWM anyway.
