Lockes stern face turns to one of surprise when he notices the Half-orc, Its a look of recognition. "Uthirk!?, What happened to him?" The elderly Man quickly takes him from Frelon and sets him down, Seemingly examining the half-orc. "What happened to his skin?, Were you responsible for this?" He looks to all of you, searching for answers.
On the other side of the room you see Huntmaster Vanessa cyndrial, A Purple skinned tiefling with stark white hair. She is the one who summoned you all to the Take. Sat beside her is a Girl, Long reddish-brown hair frames her young face. Garbbed in rather dirty clothes, You quickly tell that this girl is from a More unfortunate part of the city. The streams of fresh tears paint her cheeks.

Grelin, the Hall is very dimly lit as the only light is from a low burning candle. You look around and see the usual decor. Wooden benches some paintings and banners hang from the walls. Sconces with burn marks also align the wall, al though they look long put out. A large red rug covers the wood and stone floor, you peer pass a corner just to the right of where vanessas office is and you see the mess hall. Empty and dark, the long wooden tables have various stains from beverages and food. Peering past that, at the end of the mess hall you see the beginning to a set of stairs, Which you know leads to the Quarters. While not many Slayers sleep here, there is a bed for everyone. Most go unused for long periods of time because of Contracts that send them far away. Turning to look to the left of Vanessas office you see a Closed wooden door, This is The huntmasters personal quarters. You've never seen the inside of the room, You know Her and murtin share the room but thats it. You are familiar with the Slayers Take Hall as you spend many hours within the walls. You find nothing of interest in your investigation.

Cadence bows her head to Locke in greeting and calmly answers, "We are responsible for him being unconscious, but not for his skin. That I can not explain. What I can tell you is that we found Half-Orc tormenting children in street." She points gently to her own chest as she continues. "I used simple charm on him to make him release children he was trying to carry off. Afterwards he became angry and attacked us. We dealt with him as gently as possible, but he was very stubborn in trying to harm us." She looks from Locke to the Huntmaster as she speaks, not sure which of them to fully direct her explanation toward. "Hopefully you find answer to your liking - we came because we were told Huntmaster had business for us."
Vanessa who has noticed your entrance into her office and the Half-orc seems to be busy with the woman on the farside of the room, Seemingly trying to calm her. While she acknowledges you all she does not interfere with Locke. Locke has taken the half-orc and has sat him against the backside of the office, against the wall. Examining the half-orcs skin and checking under the would be pauldron, He lets out a exasperated sigh and turns to face you all. "This half-orc is know as Uthirk Gloomcleaver, He is-Was one of the Take." The Man corrects himself as he folds his arms behind his back. "He ceased returning to the Take some weeks ago, we Had feared his demise." A moment of anger crosses his face, not towards any of you but seemingly towards himself. "I Brought him into the Take, He was under me. A part of my team, Now you tell me he was tormenting children. This is not the Uthirk I knew." The Future Dawn Marshal grabs the half-orc and throws him over his shoulder. He walks past you all and into the dimly lit Hall. "I'll find out whats going on and why he chose to attack children, You focus on the Contract the Huntmaster has for you." He dissapears with the half-orc around a far corner, Leading towards the Holding cells.
Vanessa Addresses you as Locke leaves. "Ugly buisness, But not the first time we've had to deal with one of our own." The tiefling has calmed he woman and is now sat at her desk, Gesturing towards the 3 chairs in front of the desk. "Please take a seat so we may discuss why I have called you here."

Vanessa settles back into her chair. "Nasty business, Dealing with one of our own." She looks tired, her eyes have bags under them and she looks ready to sleep. "Unfortunately This night is going to be a little longer as I have a job for all of you, and it has to do with this girl." Gesturing towards the sobbing girl to her side. "The Bastions wanted to keep it quiet but it has come to our attention that a pair of murders have happened in the Duskmeadow, Inside the Velvet cabaret." She sits up and straightens her posture, stretching her shoulders. "We have received a contract from the owners to investigate the murders, These matters we usually leave to the bastions yet this is something that as it turns out is quite personal us."
The Duskmeadow is a district in the south of Vassielheim, Not far from the braving grounds in which the Slayers take is located. You have all heard of it but has never spent any real amount of time in it as there is no real reason for you to be there.
Sorry for the Delay everyone, A storm knocked out some fiber lines and took the internet along with it.

(Sorry to hear that, mate! Glad you're back, though!)
"Murders, eh? Probably just some scoundrels thinking they're gonna go on a deadly joy ride. I'm down for this." says Grelin, a smile crossing his face at the word murders.
"Oh?" Cadence tilts her head inquisitively. "Can you explain why this time is perrsonal?" she asks. "And perrhaps you can introduce guest so we can help her feel more comfortable." Cadence shoots the crying girl a gentle, welcoming smile.
(Yeah sorry to hear your net was in the gutter! Here's hoping it stays stable for you.)
Vanessa stretches her shoulders and arms, letting a small yawn escape her lips as her white eyes follow each of you. "Its personal, My dear Cadence. Because one of our own was the most recent victim." The Tiefling lets out a sigh as she recounts what has occured. "A Slayer by the name of Kyrt was on leave from the take, He had finished a 2 months long contract and had requested some time off. I granted him a leave as a show of good faith as he is.....was one of the top earners in the guild." She corrects herself as she flips threw a few pieces of parchments in front of her. "As it turns out, He spent a large amount of time in the promenade, Specifically in the Velvet Cabaret. He gambled,Drank and spent many nights with different ladies." The woman to her side sniffs and wipes the tears from her eyes as Vanessa recounts whats happened. "He took a liking to one girl in particular, Solace Delia." Vanessa gestures to the woman. Now that you are closer you can see the girl appears to be fairly young,early to mid 20's you would assume, Human. Somewhat short in stature but undeniably beautiful. Her skin is smooth and unmarked, if a little on the pale side. What you thought was light brown hair at first you can now see is a dull reddish color. Her Purple eyes glisten with tears as her body trembles.
"Unfortunately, Solace is a Mute. Incapable of speech but has told me in very detailed writing of what she meant to our fallen brother and how she found him." Vanessa slides 3 sheets of parchment to the front of her desk. "During the early morning, Solace arrived at Kyrts door to find it open." Vanessa grabs Solaces hand and grips it, comforting her. "She found Kyrt Disembowled and Partially skinned. A Sight that the poor girl should have never witnessed."
(Unfortunately Internet is REALLY spotty, As such I am left without internet for most of the day. Might be a small delay for a few days until my internet is fixed but I Will try to keep the narrative going with what little I can use the internet)

Grelin sits up straight. "Oh, My condolences." he says as he bows his head towards Solace. He leans over to Cadence. "This is a bit more serious than I thought. Sounds interesting." He looks back at Vanessa. "Ma'am, she didn't happen to mention if it looked like he was..." he clears his throat. "He was gutted by a critter, did she? There are more than a few who skin their prey afterwards..."
"By the Allhammer, that is a tale for the ages," exclaims Frelon. "May Moradin bless you and your kin, Solace. Whatever's afoot, we can get to the bottom of it."
Vanessa takes a moment to comfort the weeping Solace, The girl's face is covered in tears and she appears to be sleep deprived. "There was no mention of any sort of creature in her description of the events Grelin, But it does tie into a murder that occured some time ago." Vanessa stands up from her desk and walks to the side of the room. She begins sifting threw a pile of papers, During this time you all hear the door close and turn to see that Locke has stepped back into the room. (Perception check here)
Vanessa returns to her desk and produces a Newsletter, Dated for 3 weeks prior. The day you all left to hunt the Dragon. It describes in the head article, about a Woman who was found not far from the Velvet cabaret. Hung from a tree by her intestines and skinned, there is no mention of the womans name and it is implied the identity of the woman was never discovered as all that was found on her was a Brooch. The brooch is described as a Fine silver hairpiece with intricate inlays of gold and brass, In the center is a single Amethyst that acts as a egg, from the egg is a quartz winged creature that seems to swallow the sun.

What are you trying to invetigate Grelin?
Lockes stern face turns to one of surprise when he notices the Half-orc, Its a look of recognition. "Uthirk!?, What happened to him?"

Sat beside her is a Girl, Long reddish-brown hair frames her young face. Garbbed in rather dirty clothes, You quickly tell that this girl is from a More unfortunate part of the city. The streams of fresh tears paint her cheeks.
Grelin is trying to investigate the hall of the Take.
Grelin, the Hall is very dimly lit as the only light is from a low burning candle. You look around and see the usual decor. Wooden benches some paintings and banners hang from the walls. Sconces with burn marks also align the wall, al though they look long put out.

Frelon watches Locke leave with Uthirk with a raised eyebrow, but stifles a question, and turns his full attention to Vanessa and the young girl.
Grelin walks forward and plants himself as gently as he can in the seat.
Cadence follows the other two in, poised as ever, and settles into the remaining chair.
Vanessa settles back into her chair. "Nasty business, Dealing with one of our own." She looks tired, her eyes have bags under them and she looks ready to sleep.
