[D6 EA] The Great Big Terrible Roundtable

[Illiam'iira]

''It may also be what you call a red herring. The only thing to be gained would be the identity of the thieves we do not yet know about or to get the the help of the Sultan to recover it.''

Illiam'iira nods and then adds 'conspiracy begins' way above 'Rhauntides' library burns down', before writing in 'memory orb is created' between the two.

She pauses a moment to ask, "Who's Jemorille?"

[Ikkit the Bastard]

''Ser Ikkit, when was the memory made?''

"Goin' offa what I saw, right 'fore they went and nicked it- had the feel of a final meet-up 'fore th'job."

[Cyprian Kircheis]

Cyprian clears his throat. Eager to trace the lead but too dumb to understand some of the greater implications of the argument being made. "I can see the invisible if needs be. I can keep it up for an hour at a time so it should come in handy."

He did his best to compartmentalize everything that was being said so he could tell Akh about it. At the very least he knew she'd likely want to follow this thread.

[Mysti]

Mysti, for all of her part, simply stared at Illi's board. In fact, if the board had been sentient, it probably would've tried to hide behind Illi such was Mysti's intensity. Mysti wasn't stupid -- and due to her own profession she did have a mind for investigations. But for someone who had just arrived onto the scene, it was overwhelming. So many loose threads dangling here, waving in the breeze over there. So many unfamiliar names. Even though she did have a line on a lot of -- entities in Sigil, it was a big city. No one person outside the Lady herself could know about them all.

She was normally a quiet person, not given to chattering needlessly. If she had something to say, she would say it, and make certain the truth was where it needed to be. But for now, she left the clues to others. She could lead the investigation into the CIty of Brass since she had been there from start to inasupicious finish -- and she could lend her assistance in hunting down people or, um, 'persuading' others to part with information they wished to keep secret. But someone else would have to point the way.

So as of now she was even quieter than normal, wishing not to disturb the free flow of ideas needlessly.

The shadow rogue looked at Thaddeus and gave him one of those head-to-toe inspections -- then she nodded at him. "Alright then, Thaddeus. Looks like its just the two of us thus far." She did not ask for any further volunteers. If someone else wished to come to the City of Brass, she figured they were intelligent enough to say so.

[Akh Uur Hoon]

Because of her Mortuary duties, Akh appeared belatedly yet quietly, not disturbing ongoing discussions. She felt uncomfortable in such gatherings, too used to the solitude and lack of vibrating vitality in her daily undeath. Besides, she didn't know what had already been said. She sat somewhere behind Cyprian, studying inscriptions already made.

[Cyprian Kircheis]

Cyprian for his part was relieved when he saw her enter. He quietly went to where she was sitting and caught Akh up on the latest revelations. Names that he didn't recognize but maybe she might. The lingering thread they intended to follow. "Do you wish to visit this city with them, trace this latest lead?"

[Akh Uur Hoon]

"I don't think I am fully caught up on what you're asking, Cyprian." She whispered. "What latest lead?"

[Cyprian Kircheis]

"The city of Brass. A more thorough investigation it sounds like." He motions his head at Mysti. "She could get us there and I'm of course willing to go." He hated that his explanation wasn't sufficient. He wondered if she might have an easier time recalling his memories from start to finish with a drop of his blood. "If you'd like to be thoroughly caught up so you can better understand what's been happening..."

[Akh Uur Hoon]

She shook her head. "If you think this is the right course of action."

[Cyprian Kircheis]

He nodded. "Later then. But yes, I think we can be of tremendous help. That we've come this far at all is because of you and the others not letting this chaos run rampant."

"Alright then, Thaddeus. Looks like its just the two of us thus far."

At that he spoke up. "No, no. We'll tag along too!" He said with a serious expression. "The City of Brass sounds interesting."
