    She sighs softly at Nasuuma's outbreak and shakes her head. "Honestly, i didn't see the point in freaking out like that over a small dispute. If she freaked out over that, she should have been here when Nag attacked me and Ogar flipped out." She thinks, looking around at everyone. After a moment of silence, she gets some mead and sits down. "Hey Linn, what exactly do you know about Nasuuma? Or do you know as much as we do?"

    She takes a sip from her mead and her mind begins to wonder. "I know that we're looking for murders, but that's all I really know. I don't know anything about this team or who the Inquisitors are. What I want to know the most though is what it is that Thrain knows about my powers." She thinks, twirling her mead bottle. "What exactly is the difference between us and the Inquisitors?" She asks herself softly before taking another sip.

    The longer she thinks, the more she wonders about what was watching them outside. She could sense something was there but she had no idea what it could have been. Either way, whatever or whoever it was was fairly powerful. "It must have been powerful if Ogar went into over protective mode. Probably a lot more powerful then a clan of bandits. I've taken those on on my own, with no help once so ever. I know that he's just trying to protect me but now because of this, he won't allow me to leave his sights."

    As she closes her eyes, her mind wonders and something pops into her head. Almost like a memory, but she can't remember where its from. She's fighting against a small group of people, using magic she didn't know she could use. One of them hits her and its like her whole aura changed. She opens her eyes again and looks at her mead.

    Linn finished all the meat of horker and replied to Jazlyn as soon as she swallowed the food. A politician must be polite and never talk with her mouth full. "I think I know as much as you about her. I just know that she is in charge of the investigation... What do you think Nasuuma, Thrain and Nagisus are planning?" She felt curious. In fact, the planning would determine what she would do as a member of the investigation and if the strategy was well planned, her chances of making a good role in the team would increase. And her skills too.

    Rowyn was skeptic of what this vigilante had said but she nodded to him while she lowered her dagger but did not sheath it.

    "Why exactly are you here? I figured your leader would have been the one collecting the clues about the murder here." She took a step back from the man to allow him to step out of the closet.

    "What do you know about the murders anyway?" She asked while replacing a piece of her red hair back behind her ear.

    "My god for once everyone stop talking." Thrain thought to himself as he turned around to face what is going on behind him. Thrain's grip of his mace grew tighter as a stupid conversation continues, "Nasuuma please same with you Nagisus we have much to discuss and little time." Thrain spoke loud and true a voice that would silence most in order for him to continue his future conversation with the two. His old age showing, Thrain thinking about why he was even here or why he even is trying to help then he remember his promises. Thrain's mind drifting to when he was a young boy in the mountains training with his maces, unable to wield them like he can now but still trying day in and day out. The difficulties of his childhood and his past occupation made Thrain think about these small and pointless arguments in a new light, a new perspective and realized that these arguments will never be fully gone in the world that lives today.

    Linn looked around the inn. In a dark corner, an alchemy lab with a bunch of ingredients could be easily spotted. A poison could be useful. She got up and walked to the counter. "Excuse me. Can I use the alchemy lab and the ingredients." "You will have to pay milady." Linn sighed. She couldn't persuade a barmaid. A man would easily give it for free, but that girl no. Resigning, the nord put a purse in the wooden counter and moved towards the lab. She grabbed a wooden bowl and threw a few leaves and flowers to it, as she mashed it with a pestle. Amused with the alchemy, she remembered what Ogar had whispered earlier. "So, Ogar, what did you want to tell me?"

    The liquid gathered a green colour and she stored it in a bottle. "A fairly nice poison for my arrows..." She thought as she put it in her fine clothes' pocket. She then checked another of her arrows and snapped it on the table. As she spinned it in the same place and lifted some sawdust, she stroke the feathers of the arrow and she wondered what the next step Nasuuma was planning would be.

    Nasuuma looked at Thrain angrily and gave him a dark stare.
    "Are you drunk? We are already here and sitting down," Nasuuma said looking at Thrain giving him a worried stare, not knowing if he was drunk or not.
    " Now Thrain what do you want to discuss?" Nasuuma said looking at him giving him a serious look, wanting to know everything that happened also tell Thrain and Nagisus what she know knew.

    Rowyn stayed standing and watched carefully as he moved to sit on the bed. It didn't surprise her that he knew nothing, most people that were actually on the case knew next to nothing. She frowned a little, trying to go over the case files in her mind. There were no real ties, just some burns on different parts of the bodies.

    "The Inquisitors...have documentation on the manner in which the bodies were found. There were no real clues left at the scenes." She paused and thought a moment before continuing trying to make sure that her telling him this was a good idea or not. Of course, if I did tell him what I truly know then he might trust me more.

    "We are at a standstill right now." She looked around the room quickly and shuffled her feet.

    "If you would like, you can go meet with the other vigilantes and I can take over here." She started to leave the room, careful to keep her eyes somewhat in his direction as she did, but then she stopped and added, "But if you would like to stay and help me document this then, by all means, please do." With that, she walked back into the room that held the body of the person named Ravora.

    "I've never seen a murder documented before... So I'll stay." Achilles was actually worried that Thrain would be mad about the 'deal' he made with the head inquistor. A deal he didnt plan on actually doing. It would be hard to convince Thrain of that though. Achilles got up from the bed and followed Rowyn out of the room he was in and into the room that Ravora's dead body was in. "Why are you trusting the vigilantes now? I saw you talking with Nasuuma, and now your not trying to kill or arrest me."

    She looks in the direction that Thrain and the other two went, curious as to know what it is that going on. She grabs Ogar's arm and pulls him off to the side. "Hey Ogie, is it just me or do they not really want us here?" She whispers, looking at him. "We've been through this before. Where i accidentally revealed my powers and they saw us as too much of a danger. I really do hope these people don't do that as well. i actually kinda like this group." She whispers, sighing softly.

    Xander huffed standing to his feet. He walked slowly towards the entrance of the Inn. He stopped and took a wiff. "Hmmm It's here.." He opened the door.. The Lizard walked slowly taking in all the smells. It reaked of cooked meat and firewood, Mead and sweat.

    Xander Hissed Loudly. All of the smells were throwing his tracking skills off... He knocked over a table out of frustration. He took another wiff and caught a hint of the magical aura the creature gave off. He smiled letting his razor teeth rest on his lower lip. A waiter approached him asking him if he needed anything.

    Xander shook his head no. He was approached again but this time it was drunk nord.. "Why did you knock that table over?" Xander could smell the man's nervousness. He heard the clanking of a holstered weapon being jostled...

    Xander moved without hesitation. He gripped the man's throat and threw him to the ground. He was about to go for the kill until his prey made it's second debut. Xander simply stepped over the unconscious nord and huffed at the being.

    It was accompanied with another humanoid like species. Xander always considered humans weak due to their little to none connection with the wild. He growled at the figure. He took another wiff. "ORC!!!!" Xander hated them..He believed they were nothing but humans with sharper teeth..
    He focused on the Orc completely ignoring the magical being he was hunting. "Who are you?"

    Xander felt he was in the wrong place..But in his defense he was truly lost. He just wanted to know more about Magic..The art always intrigued him.

    Xander shook his head realizing he shouldn't fight. Xander turned and walked slowly Toward the door.

    "I have been drinking yes but.. but.. that's not the point. The point is we may have a rat in this operation, also due to the increasing threat of Nagisus and Ogar fighting I will stay with Ogar and Jazyln while you two stay with each other and Lynn. This way we are in groups of two and can find out who is the murder and why." Thrain said slightly dazed by his alcohol and his fast turn around, "The rat maybe Achilles due to his unfortunate move when we were escaping prison. He certain things I will care to leave closed however do not trust this man fully." Thrain said leaning up against a wall letting them know what he knows so far. "Also Jazlyn is under my protection now for reasons you may no concern yourself's with." Thrain said simply grabbing a third bottle of wine and taking a swig, the cool wine dripping down his scruffy beard.

    He had heard Lynn, but is his own world. He was curious what he should do now. Thrain had promised to help him protect Jazlyn, so he knew she would be safe. The thing that bothered him was that he didn't know how to tell Jazlyn the truth about his feelings. He let Jazlyn pull him by the arm.

    While he listened to her concerns, he wondered if she was right. He knew Thrain understood, but he wasn't sure about the other three. " Don't concern yourself about them. Thrain and I will protect you. For now...." About that time a Argonian walked threw the door. He recognized him as the one who was stalking Jazlyn. He started looking for his hammer.

    When the table got flip so did his hammer. He ran to his hammer all the while he watched the Argonian. He noticed the Argonian was disorganized. That's when he realized something, the Argonian was blind. He picked up his hammer right as he threw the Nord down. He got into a battle stance as the Argonian turned toward him.

    He was surprised when the Argonian spoke to him. Before he could reply the Argonian started heading toward the door. " Wait, why was you stalking Jazlyn?!" His rage on edge, his muscles trembling with anticipation. He wanted so bad the fight the Argonian. "Just one twitch , and I'll smash his skull in." He thought.

    She looks at the Argonian, unsure of what it is he really wants from her. She slowly walks a little closer to him, curios of why he didn't see her. "What exactly is it that you want from me? Is there something i can help you with?" She asks, unable to refuse her need to help. Unfortunately, that same quality has gotten her in trouble multiple times.

    Nasuuma looked at the man and shook her head not liking that he was drinking in front of her by perpuse, as she didnt particularly like drinking except from wine on occasions. She was also a bit dazed by the fact that he thought Achilles was working against them. It frustrated her to think that she had been betrayed and she hated being misleaded or betrayed.
    " So Thrain I will do as you said and I think its a good idea and for Achilles I would like you to keep a close eye on him and this Jazelyn I want you not to get too involved with her as I don't fully trust her nor this Ogar, do you understand?" Nasuuma said authoritively.

    She stood up and circled the room, gathering her thoughts and woundering why in the world had every got so gad damn complicated. It was meant to be a murder mystery, just work out the murders, done, but no all this has to happen.
    " Now I'll tell you what I know as there are some quite important things. For one Ravora and the crypt keeper are both dead and apparently Rowyn is on our side for some bizarre reason. Also there are now hunters after us, I don't know how many, but me and Alex were chased down by one, so you have to extra careful, don't trust anyone, not even our new members," Nasuuma said placing herself back in her chair looking over at Thrain, waiting for him to say something.

    Rowyn nodded to him as she carefully stepped closer to the dead bludgeoned body of Ravora. She crouched down to take a closer look, careful that her coat didn't touch anything on the floor as she gathered it tightly around her. She took out her little book and her piece of charcoal and started writing down little things. She looked over her shoulder quickly at the vigilante named Achilles.

    "Do you know the name of this woman?" She asked as she tilted her head to examine the bloody remains of the woman that lie crumpled in a heap on the floor. The blood was spread out evenly around her as it had spilled from the messy wounds on her body. There were splatters of blood on the walls around them, except for one wall where the assailant must have been standing while he attacked her.

    "You see all those the splatters that come from her that landed on the walls?" She stood up after she scribbled down her thoughts with the rest of her notes. She tapped her lip with the charcoal gently and looked around the floor around her without moving her feet.

    "This wall has a space that's clean...the killer must have stood here when he killed her." As she spoke she glanced up at Achilles as she pointed to the space on the wall she was referring to. She traced her eyes on the wooden floor and saw a bloody boot print on the ground beside a table that had two chairs. She stepped away from the body and leaned over to look at the print as she sketched the shape down in her notebook. The Nordic woman then replaced the notebook in her inside coat pocket and crouched once more before one of the chairs.

    "The killer used a blunt object to kill her. The fact that his boot prints stop here suggests that whatever he used to kill her is either around here..." She gently lifting up on the bottom of the chair with two fingers and held the chair seat with her thumb as she wiggled each leg of the chair. "Or he took the weapon with him, but -" she smiled grimly as one of the chair legs finally gave a little under her light touch. "It appears that he just used what was around him." She stood up again and picked up the chair out from under the table and flipped it over to rest on the back of the chair and the seat against the floor.

    "Whoever it was obviously was very angry with this person very suddenly...tell me Achilles, was she a vigilante as well?" She pushed her red hair back behind her ear again before she pointed to a spot of now dried blood.

    "He used this to kill her. Perhaps he came to speak with her and something she said angered him or her...More than likely it was a he based on the force that was used but that is just a guess." She replaced the chair under the table and turned her attention to the rag that was sitting on the table close to the wall as if it had been thrown hastily. There was blood wiped on it. She took out her notebook again and wrote down her findings. The freckle beside her mouth was drawn downwards with the frown that had appeared on her mouth during the process.

    "Her name was Ravora, I think. Thats what I heard Nasuuma say." Achilles watched Rowyn conduct her investigation. She was really good, which wasn't a surprise. Only the best of the best are recruited by the Inquisitors. "Yes, I'm pretty sure she was a vigilante..." Achilles trailed off in thought, trying to remember if she was mentioned.

    Rowyn nodded at he answered her previous questions and wrote down the name and the note that she was a vigilante as well. More than likely it was one of the Inquisitors that killed her. Maybe they were trying to get information as well and she refused, so they just decided to carry out The Inquisitor's orders...she frowned deeper as she clapped the book shut and turned to Achilles.

    "We need to go see the crypt keeper; he'll be the one that will clean up the body and to prep her for her stay at the crypt with the other victims..." Her voice was low and sullen, her eyes dull to match the air the around herself.

    "Would you also like to accompany me there?" There was a weird feeling in her stomach as she gently brushed past him and moved her way to the door. There was also an urgent-ness that wouldn't leave her, but she couldn't just let this body lay there and continue to rot while she went about gallivanting to appease the feeling.

    "Yes, I think I will." Achilles said as Rowyn brushed past him. She seemed urgent to leave, but Achilles wasn't sure why. "Maybe she is feeling sick. I mean, she did just see the aftermath of a murder... but she probably shes that all of the time." Achilles walked a little bit faster until he was next to Rowyn, instead of behind her. "Are you feeling OK?"
