Show Notes
Arthas rejoins Eight and Rou, who are saddened by the news of Jane’s passing. The group meets Inspector Francis Broussard, a Tiefling that works with the town guard, who tells them he is investigating her murder. The Inspector agrees to allow the party to assist him, so long as they understand they’re still technically suspects, and begins to collect evidence.
Eight creates a pipe to mimic Francis and introduces another persona, known as Inspector Nine. Enjoying their enthusiasm, Inspector Broussard then suggests they go to a local tobacconist to get pipes if they feel it will help with the investigation. When they return to the platform where the competition was held, they begin their investigation in earnest. Rou is able to help reconstruct the scene while Francis examines the residue remaining in the pie tin.
Francis is able to discover the type of poison that was used and shares with the group that it would have to be someone who was an assassin or have access to one. Arthas finds a vial on the ground, nearly hidden by the platform, and Eight tests it and confirms that the poison was in the vial.
