AKA: Phillip Berrie: writer, editor and academic thrillseeker—a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
As the four of you walk towards the main office, Basilly and the sheriff discuss the arrangements that are like to happen later this day concerning the Brassman residence, though Basilly continues to add the proviso that this might all change when those higher up in his Temple become involve.
Apprentice Vidon keeps quiet, apparently listening in to what is being said, but Dora notices that he is keeping a wary eye on her—but that could just be because she is carrying an unsheathed weapon when nobody else is. He himself is not carrying a sword.
[OOC: As she is on the lookout for trouble, I would like you to make another Perception check for Dora at Disadvantage because of the darkness beyond the moving pool of light created by Basilly's fighting stick.]

This is a fail, here is Dora' roll for experience:5
This is a success, so Dora gains some experience, which I have added to her character sheet.

It would seem that the bright light of Basilly's magic makes trying to see anything beyond its reach almost impossible.
Very soon after, the four arrive at the entrance to the main Watch office where the sheriff immediately arranges for two of the watchmen on duty to go and relieve Handleader Ahman.
He then turns to Dora and says, "Well Handleader, do you want to help interrogate the witness further, or would you like to return to your own Watch station?"
"Yes, Sheriff, though it has been a long night I would like to attend. I am a familiar face to young Samel and I have given him what assurances I can for his safety should he testify. Could we clarify that now - if he is to testify what can we do to protect him?"
[OOC: Sorry, you enquired about the length of Dora's watch before and I didn't answer. Her watch finishes at the second candle after dawn (Yes, it is a twelve-hour long shift, but she has a ten-day shift on and then ten day's off on full pay.)]
"If his claims turn out to be true, then I will promise him the protection of the Crown," say the sheriff. "However, I do find it hard to believe that the Hasluk family is involved. Saladin Brassman hardly travelled in their social circle."
He then gestures for Dora to follow him into the watch house, saying, "Come, let us find your young witness and see what he has to say now that he has had some time to think about things."

The two apprentices are talking just outside the entrance. They are standing next to the watchmen on watch.
Meanwhile the sheriff has approached the main counter. "Watchman Alamshah," he says to the watchman standing behind the counter, "which cell has the young man who was brought in earlier been put into?"
The watchman replies that the prisoner is in holding cell number 2.

Moving through the sheriff's office, the two of you find the young Samel in Holding Cell # 2 apparently asleep on one of the two bunks the room has.
Samel is not the only person in the cells, of which there are only two. He is also not the only person asleep because there is a man snoring loudly in Holding Cell #1.
The sheriff pulls a key off a hook on the wall and opens the large lock that secures the cell door. "I will let you talk with the boy first, Handleader," begins the sheriff, "while I go and talk with Apprentice Vidon."
He then hangs the key back up on the hook and begins to head back towards the front desk.

"Pardon Sheriff, but could you check at the front desk whether Vidon has been here tonight seeking us? I don't think he could have followed Basilly to the Guard Post and then us on your coach to Brassman's house so if he didn't come here then I think he may have been already in the vicinity of Brassman's house which raises some rather interesting questions."
I then knock on the cell door and unlock it, opening it to enter.
The sheriff looks a little confused and then says, "I do not think he said he followed you to the guard post, but I will indeed check to see if he made enquiries here about the death of Saladin Brassman. Because that is the only way he could have known to be at Brassman's residence without following Apprentice Basilly."
The sheriff then leaves Dora to enter the holding cell.
Samel's eyes flick open and he sits up.
"Handleader," he says, looking anxious. "Why am I locked in a cell?"

"For your safety Samel, I said I would protect you and keeping you here for the moment was the best way to do that. In a little while the Sheriff and Apprentice Basilly will want to hear what you've already told me. Tell them the truth and answer any of their questions. I will be here as well.The Sheriff has said that if you have told the truth then you will have the protection of the crown. This is a good chance for you Samel to change your life for the better."

I follow the Sheriff.
... and of course I sheathe my scimitar prior to entering the guard post.
Moving through the sheriff's office, the two of you find the young Samel in Holding Cell # 2 apparently asleep on one of the two bunks the room has.
Samel is not the only person in the cells, of which there are only two. He is also not the only person asleep because there is a man snoring loudly in Holding Cell #1.

I then knock on the cell door and unlock it, opening it to enter.
[OOC Sorry I just re-read that Sheriff had already unlocked door.]
Knock on door, saying "Samel it is Handleader Wallus", opend door and enter.
The sheriff looks a little confused and then says, "I do not think he said he followed you to the guard post, but I will indeed check to see if he made enquiries here about the death of Saladin Brassman.

"Do you need food or drink?"
Samel shakes his head in response to Dora's question about food and water and then sits back against the wall with his knees drawn up looking scared.
Time passes and the man in the other cell continues to snore loudly as Dora awaits the return of the sheriff.
[OOC: Please make a Perception check.]
