Johan makes his way through the bustling streets back to the House Deneith enclave. He seeks out the same official that saw him the other day and relays the story of last nights attack. The official looks quite upset about the matter, stating that an attack against a member of the House (especially one of your standing) is a great offense and pledges to look into the matter. He sends an assistant to check in with the captain of the city guard for an official report and to examine the body of the attacker to see if his face can be matched with any current warrants or bounties. After nearly two hours the assistant returns with a sheaf of papers for the official. He scans through them quickly, the last sheet showing a sketch of the dead attacker. The official then goes through another stack of papers containing all the warrants for this region of the Principalities. "The descriptions we have to work with are never as accurate as you'd like, but there are less than a handful of men that have a facial scar, size, and age that matches your dead friend there. My best guess is that he is, was, Guth Riger. He's known to sail with pirates but moves around from captain to captain as work comes up so there's no definite allegiance that I can point to. He's wanted for the usual crimes, piracy against the Princes, murder, and theft. He hasn't been seen for a few months, likely he was in port spending his pay for whatever illegal venture he was on last. I have some informants that work the docks, I'll see if they can dig up any information on this man and what ship he arrived on. I will also see what bounties were available for this man, you might get a good price for his head. If I find anything I'll send word to you."
