"Friends? Do you think I have friends?" Errona lets out a loud laugh. "I understand. Search them all you please, but watch out for that one." Errona points at lumen. "He likes to be searched and tends to hide his coin purse right around the berries."
Lumen balks. " I have no idea what she is insinuating. I am a priest. You certainly wouldn't say something like that to a representative of the Ice Maiden. " He turns to the guards. " I assure you I have nothing to hide, but I will not resist an inspection if you insist."
"That you may." The guard waits until a23 is 35 feet away until starting to follow him down the street.
Naerth's eyes slowly move from a23 and the guard in the distance back to Roc. He continues to stroke the badger in his arms while looking at Roc. *stroke* *stroke*
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Roc looks into the eyes of Naerth.
"What I do in my free time is none of Weenil's business. He gets paid his salary and in return I get nothing. On top of that what I do and who I do it with is not the authority's concern. I don't appreciate you keeping tabs on me. I swear this whole town is just one big pile of gossip. Eronna and I can't even come back to town without everyone taking our names in their mouth. I pay my taxes with the Donkey Farm and do my part as a good citizen."
Roc raises his arms and drops his backpack.
"Here search away and when nothing is found I will be on my way unless I am being detained."
"Ha ha ha. Well said, Mr. Shallow. I myself have gotten used to the rumors that spread around small towns like this." He shoos the guard off the backpack with a waving motion. "We have no need to inspect our own citizens. Only foreign agents." He looks again in the direction a23 went.
"A rite you said, good priest? Very well. Be quick about your business. Understand that we are in dire circumstances at the moment." He motions to the remaining guard at the entrance.
"Would you care to tell us more about this cloaked man you saw last night, good dear?" he asks Errona. "You seem to have been the last witness to see this woman before her tragic end."
Naerth begins walking into the inn towards his quarters, hinting at Errona and Roc to follow.
he ziggs and zaggs down random alleyways under the guise of perusing the wolf, hoping to temporarily lose the guard. once successful, he will scale a building where he may hide his stash.
Errona follows along and says "Well I am sorry but I do not really have many details to give. He was quite far away when we noticed him and I honestly didn't pay too much attention at first. Of course it didn't help that I had a few ales in me by that point... Only reason I remember that red cloak was because of the men at the tavern talking how the 'red yeti was prowling about still.' Maybe I am jumping to conclusions on making this an issue... Have there been any other attacks in the town?"
"I see... Yes, the Red Yeti has been the talk of the town for quite some time. Unfortunately news of other attacks is classified at the moment. Now, if you do not have any more information that could aid in the investigation, then I will retire to my quarters for now. You must understand, we have had quite the night here." Naerth releases the badger from his arms and allows it to scurry back outside. "If you happen to have any more information to share, do not hesitate to visit me." he says, making his way to his private quarters.
Guards are numerous within the Luskan Arms.
The guard at the entrance of the inn stands alert as he waits for his partner to return from investigating a23.

A guard pats down Lumen and finds nothing amiss. "He's clean."
The other guard continues to awkwardly chase a23's dire wolf with weapon drawn. "I will put this animal down if you do not comply, sir."
“you could try. but i assure you, hes perfectly friendly. just over-excited.”
a23 emits a high frequency whistle before the beast sprints down the street out of sight
”o dear. shall i retrieve him?”
Errona crosses her arms and points to the other guard and says "Well.... Seems like he is having a bit of a 'ruff' time."
"That you may."
The guard waits until a23 is 35 feet away until starting to follow him down the street.
Naerth's eyes slowly move from a23 and the guard in the distance back to Roc. He continues to stroke the badger in his arms while looking at Roc.
*stroke* *stroke*
"Well, Mr. Shallow?"
Roc looks into the eyes of Naerth.

a23 dashes down the street.
“mr biscuits.”

The guard quickens his pace as he tries to keep up with a23, but loses sight of him as the robot moves through Targos's alleyways.
Lumen will do his best to give the body its last rites before trying to get out of the way and find somewhere to wait for Errona and Roc.
Errona follows along and says "Well I am sorry but I do not really have many details to give. He was quite far away when we noticed him and I honestly didn't pay too much attention at first.

after successfully losing the guard, a23 stealthily scales the side of a tall building to hide the red pelt

once he finds an inconspicuous spot for the pelt, a23 will head back to roc and errona
Errona waits as he leaves then tries to determine where a23 has gone.
Roc waits along with Errona and breathes a sigh or relief that it seems the danger has passed.

"There you are, you..."
...
The guard is disappointed that he cannot find any contraband on a23's person, but lets him go regardless.
Upon returning to his allies, a23 is greeted by two scurrying badgers.
The party is left with many options in front of them.
" What have we come here for? I can't think it has anything to do with what we have been up to so far. "
Errona will head back to luskan arms and will see if the dead body is still there. If it is she would like to take it for "burial."
Errona returns to the Luskan Arms to see four guards preparing to transfer the body to a new location.
