Now shit is personal - for Melech

by Marya Silverstring

So when we start going outside the tavern~~
Outside there's a clanking metal thing and a smaller one
The bigger one is carrying a person and waves to Vera ô.o
Okay so Vera and the woman know each other

So yeaaaaah grand, more random people messing with our investigation
And Melech isn't sure whether he trusts them
That's a new one
So I guess we head towards the Trispires ô.o

I cast Pass without Trace on all of us
And it seems the new person is called Ophidia
Also she claims to never have been involved in the smuggling of live beings or eggs
Yep some people in our group really aren't at the top of their game without my spell

So then we arrive at the mansion
Decently sized
Nicely kept garden
While Melech and I'm scouting, we hear a little bit of a muffled shout
Probably in a building with some magical light in there
Second room back from the front
Someone just steps out of the house with a stern look on her face
K'van starts following her as a bat

My theory is now that the person storming out found a body
Screamed, made light
Then stormed out
Seems like the woman is going to a physician

Vera then goes in with this info
So does Ophidia
And Seb also follows
So it's just Melech and me outside
Okay and this metal thing called king that's supposed to try and protect us
Oh did I mention our group went in through the front door?

Then we hear the doctor coming back
Seb gestures is into the house
We have a quick exchange
And Melech heads in because there's someone hurt >.<
Goddamn idiot~
So since Seb also heads in, I follow

They don't even have small valuable things to grab in there....
Since there's not really any point to be seen in my normal form, I turn into a cat and hop onto the shoulder of Seb
Oh and the guy in the mansion that was saved by Melech was almost killed by one of the invisible stalkers
Vera has disappeared and Seb is looking for a way out
On our search we find the trail of blood from the person

We quickly clean up Melech
Then we get out the back with Ophidia while Melech goes out the front? ô.o
After a quick time apart Melech catches up with us
Soooo we start slipping back out through the wall

So yeah Melech probably got assassins set on his family
And the guy he saved is probably the cause for it
And we're not sure whether this guy was competent enough to actually summon an invisible stalker
Then back to the shop we go
Seems like the new people could be weird around our employer so Seb gives a quick explanation
And they're in their shop as expected

Okay so the parents force their kiddo to do those summons and it backfired?
And we shouldn't kill them according to our employer
Well that's neat, killing nobles usually is more trouble than it's worth
Anyway, the group is discussing strategy and I try giving them some idea by licking the Myriad symbol into my fur
It doesn't get commented by Vera but she seems to recognize it
Also Seb says I'm nice ô.o
At least noone thinks about touching me

Some of the kids are in front of the door
They tell Melech, that 'she' is going to his house
So Melech takes off panicked, because I guess his family is in danger?
Seb takes off after him

Getting to the house there seems to be damage
We get there
Two bodies in the first room as well as one scared tiefling
In the corridor there's a red skinned tiefling and a poison dagger wielding person/thingie
I heal one of Melechs Siblings that's clinging onto life
The person then dashes off as soon as the things turn against them

Seb, Ophidia and me start giving chase
I turn into a wolf, resembling a wolfhound when giving chase
They get some distance to us
But that definitely isn't over yet
