Phyrric Legacy - Shackled City IC Thread

Flannad shrugs and continues his examination. "I'll leave the prophecy to others to worry about and concentrate on what I know."

"I think we are looking for tampering, not for the secret lock of the augury, Sir Arak."

 

[Question]

"Is this the only entrance to the orphanage? It seems unlikely the thieves gained access through the front door."

 

[Malvoisin]

Flannad simply nods in acknowledgement and keeps his eyes peeled, looking for anything out of the ordinary for which he has some knowledge in - starting with the locks in the front door.

Flannad gives the lock a thorough examination, but comes away without much that is noteworthy. The lock looks to be of good quality, and there is no sign of any kind of tampering or lockpicking....it seems to be in perfect working order.

What's next?

"Maybe we should introduce ourselves to the good people here before we go snooping any further?" Flannad suggests as he gazes around the outside of the building looking for egress points.

(OOC: No, not abandoned...)

A few moments after Jon knocks, an elderly halfling woman opens the door and peers out. She gives the party a cursory glance, and, not recognizing them, her eyes flicker with suspicion. "Who sent you?" she asks curtly.

Who opens the door and asks "who sent you?"... maybe she was expecting someone?

Jon presses his hand to his chest. "Excuse me mistress, but we have been sent by the Church of Saint Cuthbert to investigate the recent happenings. We would like to look around for any clues and ask those who were here and new the missing. We seek only to help, and Sir Arak here can vouchsafe our purpose."
