Shannout pulls a small drum out to give a soft beat to Vlur's flauting. He sits patiently otherwise.

After several melodious minutes, Aedwin returns, this time without his helm and cloak. He's got a basket in one hand and a pair of large bottles in the other.
It's all I could scrounge up on short notice. Just some breads, cheeses, and small chocolates. I've got wine and pressed cider both. Look, I'm really sorry about hauling you all back here. You're the first ones we've had that stood up to, or even had a chance to stand up to, whatever these guys are. he says as he looks around quickly. Um, where did that little girl go? I wanted to make sure she got one of these sweetbreads my wife sent me with today.

Shannout wastes no time to take a cider in hand. I do appreciate this. He takes a drink. Shows a gleeming smile. So there have been more attacks?
Oct 25, 2017 3:16 am
I will gladly take some cheese. I enjoy it quite a bit.
He eats his cheese appreciatively and listens as Shannout speaks. Keeping whatever cheese was left in his pocket for later.

"I didn't catch any names nor faces either. Either they are good at skulking or word about it travels slow." Ci piles on as he fetches a cup of both drinks and returns to his space.

Marie-Louise thinks for a second and then slowly crawls from under the table, cocking her head to one side and frowning at Aedwin. Are you not angry? She sounds unsure, then slowly reaches forward to take a sweetbread and after grabbing it quickly goes to sit underneath the table again.
Oct 26, 2017 1:09 am
Aedwin chuckles to himself slightly when Marie-Louise dashes out from under the table. Shaking his head a little at the voice in his head. No lass, no I'm not angry. At least not with you lot. Angry that these men keep doing bad things in my district? Yes. Angry that we haven't had any luck finding any information before today? Oh yes. But not with you. From what the four of us saw, you all managed to stop these men, so at least we may have some peace. You and your - um - friends here, none of you have a weapon among you that could hurt someone like that Knight was hurt. He pulls out one of the chairs at a table in the middle and runs his fingers through his hair.
Honestly, this is really strange for us. The Legion doesn't usually work like this, but right now I was hoping to ask you all a few questions about what you saw. I've got here, he says, pulling out a handful of rolled up papers, some documents absolving all of you of any wrong-doing in the Bazaar today. You'll just need to fill out your names, after you review the documents of course. Hopefully it'll set your minds at ease about helping us. he says laying the scrolls out on the table in front of him.
While you read and decide, I will say that yes, there have been other attacks. None in the Grand Bazaar, nor the squares surrounding it. But certainly elsewhere in the district. No rhyme or reason we can find. I was hoping you could try remembering anything about the attack today. Something, other than the presence of the Knight, that may have been a trigger for the attack.
I, Captain Eleanor Jane Blueglass, acknowledge the deeds and actions of: ________________ in the Grand Bazaar today, Azel (24 Hamue) 1281. By the powers and authority granted to me by the Nightspire Keep to maintain the peace and order in the Fartouhm District of Feyshear, I absolve the above citizen of any wrong doing in connection to the attacks in the Grand Bazaar today.
Signed,
Captain Eleanor Jane Blueglass

Hmm... from what I remember, the two were talking and then he stabbed him.
Vlur takes the paperwork and reads it over.
I don’t know what they were talking about but the victim didn’t seem too happy. I will be happy to help in any way I can. Just let me know what you would need from me.
He looks around do a bit, and says
Do you have something to write with?

Uriel reads his letter and is willing to sign it as well.
He then scrunches down and reads Marie's letter to her and lets her know that it means they are not angry at her for what she did at the bazaar today and wont be mad at her in the future for it.

ci falls in line, cup in hand, seemingly eager to follow the others.
"All I know is that the slightly presentable one likes to yell and he can do magic."
He takes another sip before pressing any further.
I was eating, no, I was watching these guys finish up when I heard some screaming. And then there's a dead elf, I picked up his head actually, a scruffy man with a blade, and the yelling magician I mentioned."

After Uriel explains the letter to her, Marie-Louise's hand appears from under the table, indicating she wants it. When she receives her letter she fumbles around in her backpack for a second to retrieve an inkbottle and pen. With flowy curly letters she writes "Marie-Louise Gauchet", waits a second for the ink to dry and then rolls up the paper, sticking it out from under the table for someone to take from her. When her hand is empty she puts away the inkbottle and pen and quickly starts eating the sweetbread, quite hungry after skipping her lunch today.
Oct 28, 2017 12:28 pm
Oh forgive me, yes. Here. Aedwin says as he produces a bottle and quill. A quick glance to the table and he sees Marie-Louise holding her signed scroll out. He reaches down and plucks it gently.
Many thanks. You don't have to keep sitting under there if you don't want. I can pull one of the big comfy chairs over for you.

Uriel smiled handing over his own signed letter to the lantern. He took some sweet bread himself munching away at it.
When asked he provides all the details of the event at the grand bazaar.

Thanks for that. So what’s our next move? Are we doing an investigation?
Vlur asks as he begins to clean his pan flute.

Shannout signs the papers without hesitation. Unfortunately,
I wasnt there from the start. I cant say I remember much after my match.

Marie-Louise's face peeks from under the table and she shakes it once, but keeps her eyes focused on Aedwin. I don't know what else to tell you about the attack, I couldn't hear what the knight and the first man talked about before the knight lost his head. The one man kept yelling about C'thalet and once the flute man had the other man on the ground we all went for him. My friend tried to take me to a safe place, but I didn't want to go. The wrestler had encouraged me and that was surprisingly inspiring... When he grappled the man I played inside the man's head and he was dealt with. C'thalet can have them if you ask me, as a gift. I think he will try again and the chaos is interesting, I don't know how to stop him. Do you have milk? And can I have another bread, please?

After collecting your signatures and providing what information you can, Aedwin sighs. It's about like I was afraid of. Not much to go on, even with witnesses. As for an investigation, we will be conducting one, yes. as he says this, Marie-Louise fills his head with her recount. Hm, that's a name you've mentioned a few times now. C'thalet. Hmm. he scratches the scruff on his chin for a moment. I don't have any milk, just the cider, unfortunately. And yes, you can have as much of the food as you'd like.
Turning to the group at large, he casts a sideways look at you. You know, we typically don't outsource our work. We've enough bodies to manage. However, with the civil unrest everywhere between the nobles around the throne coming vacant, and the increasing threat from street gangs flowing over into civilized areas, we're a bit thin. I wonder if you lot would be willing to chase down information about this C'thalet character for me? I can pay you each two gold per day plus ten gold per person for each credible piece of information you can provide on the person. The contract would be for a month to start and you'd have no obligation to do anything but research this or things related to this. Thoughts?

Shannout stands proudly with a hand extended to shake. If there is goos that can be done, I shall. He looks to Vadath, urgingly.

Sure, I'm willing to help, might be able to spread some more of Olidammara teachings.
Vlur crosses his arms and smiles slightly.
