Late Afternoon

Sei: "Hmmm. Supplies for a long trip, or maybe... Something more, heretical.

Let's go find the others, Fence. Sounds like we're headed North."


The Captain looks around to find that Langley and Kanas are already present. The fourth member of the party, Gabriel, is nearby as well, talking to a young woman wearing a large grey coat.

A coat, in this weather? Seems, heretical.

"Thank you for guiding me, Madam."

You extend your hand for a handshake, and she reaches out and reciprocates. A good firm grip without being overly aggressive.

"My name is Gabriel."

Woman: ”Charlotte.”

She looks around and quickly notices the other people that make up your party.

Charlotte: ”Are these your friends? Interesting group you have here!”

Hm, let’s see. Your trout is fairly large, maybe about 30 pounds, and you’ve already gutted and cleaned it.

Twenty pence is a good price for this one, yes.


Approaching a nearby fish trader, you show him your catch and he takes a moment to weigh it and look it over.

Fish Trader: ”I can do ya ten pence.”

Ten..!?

Grabbing the vial of death dew essence, you approach the door of the cabin you’re currently in.

Opening it will probably make a noise, and possibly alert whoever’s out there to your presence. There aren’t any windows in here, so you can’t get a look outside at the moment.

>Seems like getting a priest paid off! Walk towards them, flash badge only when I'm close, in case she runs away and I need to tackle her.

"Blesser. Found one already, I see. What was she doing?"

Sigh. Well, buckle in for the ridiculous ride. If she IS a heretic I can strike fast.

You live around here, girl? What's the cloak for, on a hot day like today?"

563-05-12
Late Afternoon

~~~

Gabriel: "Why yes, those are my companions! I'm impressed, though I suppose we stand out a bit, don't we?"

Charlotte: ”Quite a bit! Not often that there’s such a gathering of such, varied, people.”


The Captain approaches Gabriel and the woman, flashing her badge once she’s close. Charlotte watches the captain unflinchingly, a friendly smile on her face.

Sei: "Blesser. Found one already, I see. What was she doing?"

Gabriel: "Hm? This lovely soul was just helping me find my way back to the docks."

Sei: "...Is that so?

You live around here, girl? What's the cloak for, on a hot day like today?"


The woman suddenly turns smug, and reaches into her coat.

Langley tense up, ready to pounce.


Charlotte: ”Don’t come from these parts, no. As for this coat, it has a purpose...”

She pulls something out of her coat in a blur of motion and Langley whisks her rapier out of its sheath, the fencer freezing mid-stride when she sees - a hat?

Charlotte places a grey deerstalker cap on her head with authority and stands proudly as her coat flourishes behind her.

Charlotte: ”A symbol of my profession! Seeker of truth, informant of justice! Private Investigator, Charlotte Copperhead at your service!

Well, I’m actually on a job right now. At your service when next available!”

You quietly ward the Captain, and perform a minor exorcism in the process.

Faint traces of the curse - not enough to be noticeable, but something that can build up and cause symptoms over time. All cleansed now, though.

Fish Trader: ”Constance eh? Those the prices you run over there?

How ‘bout fifteen.”

"Who is there? A customer?"

No response.


The sound of shattering glass can be heard - a beaker or vial shattering, perhaps. Someone must be in your black powder experimentation cabin.

>Unexplainable surge of confidence! Chuckle.

"Hah. Keep the hat on, lady. There's been sightings of a witch in a longcoat around these parts, don't want to confuse us poor Hunters.

Speaking of that - You seen anything unusual? A detective ought to have powerful observation skills, eh?"

>I don't have all too much time to haggle. Maybe the prices really are lower here. Probably I'm being robbed.

"I'll take it. A fine day to you."

>You know, let's go back to the medicine woman's place. I am interested in what else she might have - or if she needs any ingredients from the sea.
