Inavi: Howling Seas [Concluded]

[Seon]

In a footnote, the editor comments that at this point, Donnelly was going insane as
syphilis tore through his system like a drunk driver. He is not to be trusted – many of
his claims are unsubstantiated and although he does paint a colourful picture, much
of what he says may have been derived directly from his fever. But I have been here
and I know, as Donnelly did, that this place is always half-imagined. Even the rocks
and caves will shimmer and blur, with the right eyes.

Morning Update 4

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

"LET ME GO, YOU STUPID APE!" The village elder, Csargo, tried desperately to escape from his bindings.

"I think not," the figure said as he stabbed the elder in the stomach. The elder's eyes went wide open. "Weren't you going to interrogate me first?"


"Nah, this sounds much more fun," the figure slashed the elder's throat...

Kaboooooooooom!

"Now what be that noise?"

"What the hell happened here last night?" the Watchman asked.

"Beats me," the shipwright answered.

A rather large area of ground lay pulverized as if a giant had trodden through it. The trees around the area lay uprooted...

and there was no body on sight. Or perhaps there very nearly was. The orphan limped into the town's gathering, hand wrapped tightly around the wounded shoulder.

The healer, for once, did not run at the sight of the bloodied orphan.
....................................................................................

The Child was playing near the beach. It was still raining, of course. The blasted storm cloud never seemed to go away. Thusly the beach had a very dreary feeling to it. The fact that there was the body of the dead Village Elder didn't help to the feeling at all.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

THE VILLAGE ELDER WAS INNOCENT

What did help to the feeling was a little puppet that washed ashore. The adults of the village shuddered when they saw the puppet. It seemed...rather intelligent looking...

Other subject in discussion was the disposal of the magnificent merchant's cane sword. Who would claim that?

Morning 4 Begins. Night comes in approximately 47 hours. Votes for the puppet in RED. Votes for the Cane Sword in BLUE. Accusations in BOLD. Supports in GREEN.

[Winston Hughes]

It strikes me that the Flutist, wideyedwanderer, has been keeping a suspiciously low profile, speaking rarely, and saying the bare minimum when he does.

[Frozen In Ice]

The scholar surveys the scene where the orphan had been found. He examines the area for a bit, and then an idea strikes him (just like they always do).

Where is that town idiot, oh there you are Choxorn. Were you playing with any shiny objects last night, or even anything that made a big boom? Come on child don't be afraid to speak up and tell us. We can hardly blame you if someone of your intelligence didn't think of the consequences. We just want you to admit it.

The whole time the scholar spoke to the idiot he used exaggerated hand motions to make the meaning much clearer.

[Askthepizzaguy]

You killed Csargo? Why?

He wasn't even doing anything.

[Link]

Yes lets kill that evil Balsereph flutist, Wideyedwanderer

[Nightbringer]

Well, it seems to me that there really are no strong leads, the flutist has been quiet, but I think I know the reason for that. Nightbringer says with a wink
(OOC, I think we can attribute that to WeW running his own mafia game at the .net)
