"Kendra" Rigel says. "I was hesitant to ask, not wishing to upset you, but now it's important. Exactly how did the professor die?"

Mal's face grows paler with each red-circled entry, until they read the last. He turns his attention to the face of the professor's daughter as Rigel asks his question, already afraid he knows the answer.

"there was an accident at the Harrowstone where they found him. He was laying down on his back by a wall, his face was crushed in, neck broken. There was a piece of one of the stone gargoyles beside him. It was deduced that he just got lucky and happened to be underneath it at the time." Kendra moves away and goes and looks at one of the old books the professor has on the shelves, clearly trying to avoid being asked anymore questions for a time.

"Lucky accident," he says, voice lowered to keep the professor's daughter from hearing. "I think we know what that's likely to mean now, yes? But what did he get from the crypts to prepare himself, and where is that now?"

"With luck, Kendra might have been given them" Rigel says in a low voice. "Otherwise, I fear they may be six feet under."

"We do not even know if the Professor was able to retrieve the items from the Crypt. Gor thinks we should continue the Professors quest, but more research may be needed.. We should check the church to see if he went there."

OOC: Is there time to go to the church/crypt 'tonight' or should we just make plans and head out in the morning?

 

[Ruiktheforgotten]

OOC: you are here for a month all on your own time. i can tell you it is about supper time right now

Xilena rubs her belly as her stomach growls. "Goodness me, with all that has happened, I've forgot about eating. Why don't we discuss this over dinner?" She gives another cute sad cat look all over again, not as cute as before, but still cute!

Mal is thrown a moment, then realizes that a change of scenery might help cut some of the growing tension. He nods.

"I think a nice meal sounds lovely. Nothing like nutrition to help a body think properly."

"I agree I am famished," Zilena replied after a very loud growl came from her stomach. "I haven't eaten since this morning."
