[sblock=Insight 10]Adie seems to be reacting more to Dodridge's response than on her own, she does not appear particulariy artful at disguising this and it looks like this may be a common occurence.[/sblock]
[sblock=Sending for the Guards]If Adie is asked for directions, or an address you again find yourselves unable to comprehend Adie's words - although you are fairly certain she gave an address.[/sblock]
Adie pulls away from the house keeper and turns her wide eyes on the party.
"Yes, Adie will take you." She says simply and turns on her heel. Dodridge watches on worriedly and the tutor Sprinthresh heads back into his room rubbing his forehead.
Adie leads the group through the affluent secions of the city for around fifteen minutes, eventually she reaches a boarding house called The Golden Snowflake. She walks straight into the lobby and heads upstairs. At the landings third door she stops and looks back to the party momentarily before opening it - it is apparently unlocked - and stepping in.
Upon entering you see the prone figure of a Forged, he lies spreadeagled with his arms and legs spread out into an x shape. Around him is a circle of blood surrounded by strange runes, the circle is repeated upon the eight foot high ceiling.
The corpse itself appears largely intact, with the exception of one gapeing eye socket which sits conspicuously empty. The Forged is dressed in a cloak and tunic and nothing else - hardly indecent given his anatomy.
The apartment seems minimalistically opulent, the floors are a beautiful polished oak the walls a subtle soothing off white shade and in each corner is a large vase filled with exotic dried flowers which stretch up towards the ceiling. In the center of the room is a circular table in the center of which is a recessed tray-like object filled with gravel and smooth rocks - something about it appears incongorously harmonious in the current situation. There appear to be several connecting rooms, one which might be a kitchen - though there are no cooking implements visible - and two more doors.
[sblock=Streetwise 10]The Golden Snowflake is a upscale establishment frequented by the sons and daughters of nobility and some wealthier merchants. It typically houses people for months rather than days renting out furnished aartments and is considered a hub of the social scene amongst the younger nobles.
[sblock=Streetwise 15]The guards have a tacit understanding that many of the nobles who stay at the Golden Snowflake use Weird Root - a narcotic hallucinagen, think fairly strong cannabis, either chewed or smoked - on a regular basis. Since the nobles cause lttle trouble and keep to themselves the guard have never been greatly worried about the problem, though a few of the dealers are arrested occasionally when more pressing matters are not at hand.[/sblock][/sblock]
