Eshanna smiles coldly, and points at the young guard.

Mega-Reivik frowns, and raises a bushy eyebrow as he looks down at Latalya. "Possessed?" he suggests. "Can you check for any lingering aura?"
"Anastasia, any evil?" he adds.

OOC: I just have to say, Mr. Heard, a true LOL moment (and I'm still chuckling writing about it now.)James Heard said:

As the possessing force seems to have left its victim, Latalya relaxes. “Everything is alright... for now. Can you remember anything? What happened?” Latalya asks the man, scolding the guard who kicked him with a sideway glance through narrowed eyes. The elf then turns to look up to Reivik. “That seems likely. I'm not a scholar, but I can try.” Then she casts a quick cantrip and focuses her gaze once again on the man at their feet.
OOC: Casting Detect Magic. Knowledge (arcana) +11, Spellcraft +20.
Oh, and she has Magic Jar in her spellbook, if it was something similar maybe.

“The suspicion was quite right, as it seems. He was subject to a spell, which allows the assailant to enter his mind and push it aside, while controlling the body. He might still be in the vincinity, if he has not fled by now, as the spell has only a limited range, so be careful, everyone! It's doubtful, that he will stay around, but it's still possible. Oh, and before you ask, no, I don't think I can trace where he went to.”
To be safe from such intrusions for a while, Latalya protects herself with another spell, while dropping some silver dust around her in a circle, which promptly disappears much to the regret of the guards' greedy eyes.

"Well, having been up and down the alleys and roads, I doubt he was outside. Could he be in a building? What exactly is a limited range? This is a city, 50 feet can make a major difference."

“About two hundred feet. And I wasn't exactly clear before, it's not the person who has to be around, just his mind and the focus for the spell, which usually is a small gem or crystal. It's, however, very risky not to have the physical body nearby, which is in a kind of hibernation, while the mind is possessing another's body, and therefore is likely left in a safe spot within a similar distance.”

The still-grappled man seems to become a bit more coherent, "What's going on? Who are you people?"
He then sees Reivik and his eyes grow as big as saucers, "Great Hieroneous! It's the giants! They're back! Don't eat me, I'm old and scrawny!" He starts sweating bullets as he struggles in vain against the people restraining him. He seems much weaker now.
It is then that he finally realizes that one of the people holding him is a watchman. "Hey Gullam, it's me! Alanar! You remember, we were both stationed at the Trade Gate a year ago. What are you doing with this giant?"
The guard he is speaking to examins the speaker closely and then looks up at all of you, shaking his head, "I don't know what this man is talking about. He's not Alanar. Alanar is at least fifteen years younger."
