Glancing down at Ino, Reygon laughs at the state of his hair and says, "Oh? You'll have to show me later."He smiles at Nagas when he pats him on the back, then listens to what the Leonin has to say. He does not look happy when he mentions that the body guards were executed for their failure. It is unreasonable to expect someone to be awake and fully functional every day with no time to sleep. However, he does not comment on this yet. When Feloren asks her questions, Reygon also pays attention to the leonin. "Yes, it would be helpful if you told us where these crime scenes are."
"Yes, there will be new votes. In the meantime, when council votes are called, the nine that cam vote... well, one out of nine is a lot better than one out of twelve. And the crime scenes are in the mansions where they lived." He gives you basic pointed directions, so you can find your way. He seems to be honest, and clearly nervous.

I will protect those I hate. Even ... even if the one I hate most ... is ... myself.
Ino ignores Reygon’s reaction and comment. He actually ignores most of what everyone else says; not on purpose, but because he has many questions echoing around the vast caverns of his mind. He only catches a few select words, like ‘garrote,’ 'assassin,’ and ‘mansion.’ He figures that’s a good enough gist of the situation. As he thinks he runs his fingers over one of his horns, a habit he picked up years ago for when he's thinking hard about something. Just like that book I read that other week. About the small-town murders. What kind of motive would the killer have? I guess they are relatively influential people, it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to say that the killer has political or monetary goals. Wait, are we getting paid for this?

Nagas remains mostly silent, as he knows he's not the best conversationist, but follows the group tightly. He looks at Reygon as they depart and asks "Did you get a feeling he might be off about something?"
When the group departs, Nagas begins to lookout due to the warning from before.
"I didn't detect any deception, just some anxiety, which would make sense if an assassin is targeting the twelve. His comment about 'one out of nine' makes me wonder if it is perhaps another of the twelve doing these killings, looking to have a stronger vote on a particular matter. There is still so much we don't know. Yes, let us go to the mansion of one of the most recent murders and see what we can find."
Feloren makes her way with the others towards the mansion the leonin indicated.
"He does seem a bit jumpy." Reygon replies to Nagas, "I can't say I trust him, but I don't think he's the one murdering people." He nods at what Feloren says, "That is definitely a possibility."Noticing his brother he says, "Your doing that thing with your horn again. What are you thinking about?"
"Well," Ino drops his hand from his head, letting them rest by his side, "I'm thinking of two things." He speaks quietly, walking alongside Reygon and following the others. "Firstly, right off the bat it seems plausible that the killer wants to gain political or monetary power. That could mean one of the Twelve wants a stronger vote, but it could also mean an outside party is looking to weaken the Twelve's influence. I feel like its way too early to say, and it could be something entirely different. Secondly," he furrows his brows and looks up at the rest of the group for the first time, "Are we getting paid to investigate these murders? It would be nice to be able to get more materials for my inventions."

Nagas, as you look around, you notice that you are being tailed by three individuals, who are carefully watching you. At first you only see two of them, and are thrown off by how obiously they are following you. After a moment, you realize they are intentionally trying to draw your attention away from a far stealthier individual.

"True, it is to early to determine who exactly is behind this or why, but those are good guesses. They both make sense for this situation. Now all we can do is keep digging." Reygon answers, "Payment? Oh I don't know, I just thought we'd help out! But don't worry, I'm sure we'll get a hansom reward for our troubles."
Perception to see if Reygon notices they are being followed: 12
"Then it might be a good time to give you this. Catch." Instead of throwing the item in question after saying 'catch,' Ino throws it at the same time as the word is said---and it wouldn't be a lie to say he did it because he wanted to see it hit his brother's face. He's smiling like a fool the entire time. He looks up at Reygon, obviously proud of the work that went into making a pair of stone necklaces for the pair of them and wanting to see his reaction to the gift. "Do we want to try and shake them off, or wait and see what they're after?" He's mostly aiming this question at Reygon, but tries to say it loud enough for only the rest of the group to hear.

Witas slightly nods to Ino, hopefully conveying that he had heard his warning. He then pretends to be rummaging through his pack. He furtively looks for the people trailing them
Witas then casts mage armor. He then says "Have I ever told you my fellows of the tale of the 3 rams and the farmer. He had such dilemma as the rams were chasing him. He thought of capturing them or the other option of trying to shake them off. Now what would you have done if you were the farmer"
"They are a ploy for their friend." Nagas motions with subtly toward the third member of the tailing group. "Do we wanna disappear?" By this time the party would know that Nagas can cast Pass Without Trace to help out the party.

"I think disappearing is an excellent idea. Perhaps those of us a little less stealthy can continue, while I and anyone else who wishes to, hang back. See if we can get a better idea of who is following us. Where is this one particular person?" Feloren asks Nagas to describe where he saw the single figure following them (the one which the other two are acting as decoy for). Then, as she feels Nagas magic envelop her, she melts back into the crowd, using any buildings around them to try and hide and get a closer look.
Stealth (with Pass Without Trace included): 20
(I'm not including Guidance because they are both concentration spells so don't think you can have both up)

Witas takes the items and looks at his companions "Well Lets head to the recent crime scenes of the 2 that was just murdered"
He waits for the others before heading to the crime scene

You notice the two people, but not the hidden third.

Reygon mutters to his brother and states the obvious, "It seems we are being followed."
Witas continues on towards the home of the recently murdered Councilor, oblivious to the fact that they are being followed
"Then it might be a good time to give you this. Catch."

I would like to make it clear I will be camping the next 4 days. I will have internet sometimes to follow the story.
Nagas will cast Guidance on anyone who asks for it, and currently casts Pass Without Trace if the party agrees that they need it.
