He puts himself out relatively quickly, but is somewhat distracted by the singed skin and smoldering arm-hair and has trouble focusing on his magic.Earth doesn't find anything especially notable - aside from the obvious dismembered corpses - but the spirits sense some familiar unnatural presence has been here... recently.Raijin closes his eyes in concentration.  When he reopens them, his eyes glow with faint blueish glyphs.  The sense of abyssal magics is here, but, unlike the other scenes there are two layers - one that is about two days old, a second that is only an hour or so old.  It is especially strong near one of the doors, the one directly to the left of the door everyone entered through.Mab tries to recall what she can about the guild and only remembers a few scraps of details.  They are fairly new, only formed in the last few years.  They seem to specialize in illegal gambling, especially relatively high-stakes games which implies that they already had a decent amount of currency to back the house's stakes.  This places is also - aside from the gore - relatively well decorated and well-adorned for a thieves guild, implying high-value "clientele".Devinihm finds the usual silver hairs stuck here and there to the splinters of the door.  He determines from the way the corpses are laid out that the woman at the door was probably looking through the view-slot in the door when whatever was on the other side blew it apart or hit it with such force that it impaled and lacerated her.  She probably died within seconds.Judging from the remains of the other bodies, he determines that one of the ones who was playing cards didn't even have time to get out of his seat - either from shock or due to the speed of whatever killed him while the other man's weapon has a bloody handprint on the handle that's lying broken nearby, he had time to get his weapon out and died after nominal resistance.[GM]Sorry about the delay in posting.  Thought I'd be back from the party at 9 or 10 and I didn't end up getting home until almost 3am.[/GM]</blockquote>
