They spend the evening poking around where they shouldn’t – making wild assumptions about the assassination – walking through the castle animal menagerie to see what the smelly oil does and finally getting the Udo involved. They go to bed without having facts or evidence of anything. Until the assassins attack them in their room. The party – being paranoid- is ready and make short work of the 6 killers. When the Udo comes to their room and sees the dead bodies he explains, "They are probably Fatela - from a western desert region several 100 miles away. One of the clans can be hired out, but generally only by people that are very serious about the assassination. The clan is not cheap to hire and usually are very efficient killers.""Who would want us dead? Or at least want us dead that badly?" retorts Remilles."I have wondered if our true quest would meet with resistance." Says the Udo, " There is a small cult that still survive and worship from the former Church of Farazon."Zenthilus queries " But the prophecy is that we will "witness" the return of the tyrant, not stop it.’"Maybe the cult would rather not everyone know when he is back until he can gain back some power." suggests Larinia, "The power of secrets and all that."After a bit more discussion the party eventually gets some rest and are up bright and early for the trip through the gate.</blockquote>
