The Urdulion Empire - A Dnd Campaign.

"Not a bloody one. There pass a lot of people through here, lots of which have weapons, so pinpointing one will be difficult."

 

"Well, you better start looking."

 

"Right. We'll start investigating." Guard 1 responds.

"Do we have a name of the victim?" The other guard asks.

"Dulman. Conner Dulman." Jonas answers.

 

I don't seem to care about his name.

 

’Ilina’: ”Who was he?”

 

"He was a regular here. He came back a few days ago after he said he and his friends found something in the hills a few miles out of town. Maria had been bringing him breakfast each morning and after this morning he didn't come down. I suppose this explains why." Jonas explains.

"I don't know what he had found, so don't ask me about it. So if you would excuse me, I'm going to take care of Maria now."
Jonas says, as he helps Maria stand up and they both start walking towards the stairs.

 

I look inquiringly at the armored guy, crossing my arms.

 

You also hear this conversation, of course.

 

"Wait, what hills?"

 

"There are plenty if hills created around the area of the Derimous Plains. People sometimes adventure out to search in the caves that lie beneath for treasure."
One guard says.

"People rarely find anything, but it appears this one might have been more lucky." The other guard says, pointing at the corpse.

 

"A trade in luck, I suppose."

 

"Well. If you can find the suspect, you can always ask. If you don't kill them before that."

Can I tell how long the body was dead?

 

Medicine check.

 

"Sounds like someone didn't want him to talk about what he found... or someone wanted to snatch that thing from him."

 

"All I can advice is to look for any associates. No fool would go looking for treasure on their own, especially with the growning number of bandits."

 

"Perhaps the clues to this man's death are hinged on his discovery..."

"Did he mention anything about what he found?"

 

The guards shrug.
"We just got here. Jonas might be the only one who has talked to him recently." One guard replies.

Looking at it, not more then a day. Maybe not even 12 hours.
It had to be somewhere between now and breakfast.

Finding a half-finished food plate on a desk further confirms that it was close to breakfast time.
