Modar's Journal: Shocking development in the Sebastian case

by Modar

Woke up by a knock at the door this morning – a super nervous cleric foisted off a magically accident prone Izzit on me. Blitz apparently was Sebastian’s coworker. The Orzov think he could be helpful to my investigation but need to keep him under warps as he has some sort of out of control storm aura. Normally that would fall to my enforcer, but he seems to be missing - or worse. Terrance sent me a messenger, Henry, telling me of Rasputin’s death as well – need to follow up with him.
 
Babysitting a delusional, nervous, accidental murder machine while trying to hide 50K and the fact that I lost my enforcer, my contact and am trying to out the corruption of the Knight of Abundance; sounds like a great day right? Gets better though Nolson, is apparently my new contact – and he would like some help looking for the person who destroyed his church.
 
We headed out to the lab from the notes. Blitz actually knew right where it was. Place was a disaster, and there was a fried goblin on the floor. Blitz admitted he was there at what I estimated was the time of death of the Goblin Yuk. Blitz danced around all my questions, so I called Yuk back to talk. Apparentl, Blitz and Yuk had the magic cards only slightly before Flux and I. Blitz got the cash and he and Yuk fought. Somehow Blitz seemed to have also gotten his electrical power in the situation and blasted the heck out of everything around him. There is another person involved, Spitz, but he seems to have disappeared as well. Depending on how you count them it looks like this mystery has claimed 8 people. We did get some information about another lab and a few other data points out of a safe that remained intact. Ominously, the lab collapsed as we left.
 
We stopped by Nolson’s to collect my pay and report in. He has added some fortifications and has a little paper pusher handling his transactions. He seems super spooked, which can only be good for me. Need to let him cool a little before doing anything else about his graft.

Went to investigate the other lab, and we seem to need some sort of “magic battery” to open the door. Blitz might know how to make one, spend the rest of the data collecting the spines of flying snakes out in the wilderness. Def not my cup of tea - paperwork doesn’t bite, but we got it done and bought the supplies for milking the eels Sebastian has been fishing for late at night. Blitz pretty well fried the poor proprietor; I healed him up a bit, but he is going to be pretty sore.
 
I dumped Blitz at Flux’s with a story about how Flux was helping him out. I am having trouble convincing Flux’s servants to keep their distance, but Blitz’s routine blasting of them is making them a bit wary. Hopefully I can keep the charade going and Blitz can get enough control to not burn the place down like he did that ostentatious pram.
 
Hired myself a majordomo, Wilifer, to help me move the gems into more legitimate businesses. Seems pretty trustworthy, and instant wealth certainly makes a mockery of many. With a good head, some good help, and a little luck though, it could be my ticket.
 
Once that was done it was time to milk some eels. Blitz is just as much of a numbskull as Flux, plan - no just jump in the water and then whine about being cold. We did get the goo we needed tough. Tomorrow my majordomo starts and we have to get the shells, hopefully that goes well.
