D&D: Palace of the Silver Princess Level 2

Oversoul

The Tentacled One
I can't start it because Cugel is in the same room as Rondo. If we want to switch Cugel with one of the others, then fine. If not, someone else will have to start the interrogation...

"Well... since no one else has upped the ante..."

(Draws his bow... aiming directly at the chest of the girl in the room he is in... addressing her)

"I'm going to ask three questions... If I don't get enough details, or don't like an answer, I'm going to release this arrow, and you can tell where it is pointing... do you understand?"

"Here are the three questions - and i want plenty of detail..."

(draws a little tighter on the bow...)

"How did you enter the building? - What are the details of all the rooms you visited before this one, and I should have enough detail to make a basic map of it in my head?... And what exactly were you going to do in this palace?"

"We entered through a rarely used side door in the castle... I'm not sure of all of the rooms we passed through, but there was a storeroom, a dining hall, a kitchen, and a classroom. We snuck by a guardroom on the way here. We were just trying to find some little trinkets to take to further better our lot in life. Please don't kill me!"

"A rarely used side door..."

(Let's the arrow fly into the woman... Finishes her off with another one if needed...)

(once she's passed...)

"sorry - but I don't know how she would be able to tell a door was rarely used - and sneaking past a guard room - I didn't buy it..."

(searches her for anything informational...)

"Now - let's see what the other has to say..."

<Splat> The arrow strikes her in the chest. At this close ranger, you can't miss.

She has leather armor, a sword, a backpack, 4 small sacks, 50' Rope, 12 Iron Spikes, Mirror, Normal Rations, a Full Wineskin, Thieves Tools, 21 cp, 7 sp, 15 gp, and wolfsbane.

(Thieve's tools huh?...)

Begins sorting through stuff to adjust his pack and take some of hers...

(Will send an updated list later...)

(Opens the door to the other room and goes through the same process with the next girl - same questions and all...)

"We just came through some side door that wasn't being used too much. I think we came across a dining hall and kitchen - maybe a bedroom. We just thought we could find some stuff to take that the palace wouldn't miss."

"So, you aren't anything more than common thieves? Taking advantage of a bad situation? Such a waste of a pretty face."

"I shouldn't say 'common', but if you have to put a label on it, yes, we're thieves. But what bad situation?"

"When did you say you got here? Haven't you noticed anything odd about the residents here? And what is the deal with the picture of a cat?"

"We didn't say, but we just got here. I think... for some reason we 'awoke", but I don't remember falling asleep. Anyway, isn't the date the 6th in the month of Harvest <** which is a date about a day before you arrived at the Palace, the day when everything started going to pot in Haven>?

Nothing's with the cat, we just like cats."

"Where did the scroll come from?"

**I really want to believe her... I just hope our homicidal Elf does... :) And now I don't know how to deal with his earlier "interrogation" And I'm intentionally not answering about the date just yet.**

(I find it odd she wouldn't mention something as dangerous as "sneaking past a guard room..." How would they know the side door wasn't used too much... and if we went all the way around the palace and didn't see the side door - where is it?... As for going through the palace - I find it hard that they would enter into the palace, and go through all the corridors we did, and leave no deceased "beings" behind them...)

"For now your answers suit my liking - but let's see if you can answer the rest of them from my comrades..."

(Anyone else have ideas about their differing statements? - I see differences...)

(* It's actually a better indication of truth that there are subtle differences... Pat answers are typically rehearsed. *)

"What is your name? Where did you 'wake up'?"

(* I would really like to show her the stone mage and see if she knows anything more - or how she reacts, but that would mean escorting her past her dead friend, which will put a complete damper on our discussions if you ask me... Of course these answers will have to wait for spidey's return. *)

"My name is Duchess. We woke up here, in this room, which apparently was where we fell asleep as the last thing I remember was looking at all of the rows of scrolls on the shelves."
