"Well Tonto, Bjorn. It looks like we have a mystery on our hands, maybe a murder." I say with a grin.

The gate itself is rather large and heavy and will require more than just the three of you to open it. The watchmen who would usually be responsible for guarding the gate seem to have disappeared. However many victims there are have disappeared along side them.

To Bjorn's relatively untrained eye, the tracks appear to be human. There isn't much blood but the drops have been scattered liberally. There is no trail, both blood and tracks cease to exist right at the gate.


BTW just waiting for Folstaff to make his action before we can move on.

If I am anywhere near the gate, I will try to help them open it, whilst making it clear I am not the other's enemy.

Is there any mechanism which opens the gate?

I'll help the others in trying to open the gate myself. Sorry for the wait.

Ignoring the approaching Saurus, Folstaff makes his way towards the gate. Not noticing the small halfling slouched up against the wall of one of the houses lining the quiet street, Cuautemoc follows the dwarf.

Tonto looks around but it appears that the only way to open the gate is to physically shove it open.

Before anyone can react to the Saurus which has just arrived a voice barks out from behind you in gruff Breton. "Drop your weapons now! You have some explaining to do." Looking back you can see a middle-aged Bretonnian man wearing chain and a heraldic tabard with a longsword at his belt. Behind him stands over twenty watchmen. He see Cuautemoc and gives a gasp of surprise. "Consorting with a lizard too! This better be good."

Still hidden against the wall, attempting to look inconspicuous, Frederich stands behind the knot of men in the street, free for now.

The man's tabard is adorned with the following blazon.

A sea dragon haurient
argent on an azure field.

To Tonto's eye, this indicates that the man is from the Bretonnian Dukedom of L'Anguille however upon his left jerkin pocket he bears the coat of arms of Bregonne, indicating that he is some sort of official in the colony. Behind him, the watchmen all bear the colony's coat of arms too.

"My name is Barnan, good sir. We did not commit this horrible crime. We just heard a scream and came to investigate. As you see my Espada is not bloody and my quiver is full." As I sheath my blade I look around to see if there is any escape route just in case things get a bit out of hand.

"Hail kinsman son of L'Anguille, peace unto you. Us companions had been chasing gunfire when our path was blocked by this door perhaps you could assist us.

I will sheathe my weapons but refuse to drop them, and do my best to be complacent. My hands will hang near my weapon and shield, again, in case things get out of hand.
I will also place on fist across my chest and make a quick bow before returning to the aforementioned stance.

Okay, I have a few questions as to what I can see. Namely; are we in the main street? If so, are there any shops nearby, are they open, and what are they? Ditto for taverns. If we're not in the main street, where is that said street? And assuming (as I think we are) that the colony is on the shore, is the gate we're discussing a landward gate, a port gate (if it has any), or one that leads along the shore?

I'll try and assume a stance sufficiently assertive to dissuade confrontation with the watchmen, but I'll sheath Azdurak (which is my axe, for the record).

OOC: ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ! (Come and get them!)

Sheath weapon, and bow towards knightly dude
"Whatever foul events happened here certainly had nothing to do with us, the lizard however I cannot say. We were woken by gunfire and a woman's scream and rushed to the source."
Tis but a scratch...

The gate is situated on the main street. As it is late at night and due to the attacks all of the shops, stall, taverns etc are closed and the houses appear deserted as the people inside lie low. The street leads to the western edge of the settlement which is the west gate. The main street leads out onto three trails which lead to the outlying hamlets. Back towards the Black Crown Inn (which is close to the centre of the colony) the street leads onwards toward the docks. To the immediate north of the docks is the keep of Bregonne itself, the abode of the Lord Gormont, Marquis of Bregonne.

I'm in the process of drawing up a map of Bregonne and the outlying hamlets. Sorry for the wait.

"We know of you Barnan. An itinerant traveller you are, more trouble than you're worth really. As for the rest of you, I see no real reason to believe anything you have to say. You!" he gestures pointedly at Tonto, "Don't assume by our shared heritage that you are any kinsman of mine! Now, unless you have any legitimate explanation for why you are here at the scene of the crime and why you are consorting with a Lizard, you are all under arrest for consorting with the Dark Powers. You can come peacefully or with the help of my men's weapons. What would you prefer?" The way he says this suggests that he doesn't really want to hear your excuses.

It seems that he really doesn't care what you have to say. On the other hand, fighting your way out might cause more problems than it would solve.
