Feel free to converse. I will post details about the slain liaison shortly.

What is the public reaction to the Day of the Scorpion?

So, are there any reports of people long dead who suddenly reappear? 

I don't remember the flying elephant's name, but does he know what "time" he's from assuming celestial beings even track that sort of thing?

Bryvus spends his off duty time assisting with clean up efforts.

It also occurs to me that I never discussed with Gneetah or Quorl their willingness to receive arcane enchantments in combat. I usually prepare 2 that you might find useful, an "enlarge", as you saw with Robert vs the scorpion, and a "heroics" spell, which would give you instant knowledge of an advanced combat maneuver (fighter feat).

OOC to all, take a look at the available fighter bonus feats and note 1 or 2 that you would want should I cast it on you. You need to be able to meet the prerequisites of the feat, so if you want imp sunder you need power attack, imp critical needs bab 8, etc.

I don't need to know what they are, just keep them handy if the situation arises.

The Celestials:

In addition to Pillar the hollyphant there are four others.  One is a Light, whose name is abbreviated Uri. The next is a planetar named Atl'ieyne. He says that he has surveyed the city from the air and no scorpions or elementals remain. He takes Uri and departs for the upper planes.

The last two are twin devas, a brother and sister, Syra and Soryn. They are intrigued by what has happened here and tell Ari and Ullik they intend to remain.

The Slain Liason:  Elias Faen, a relatively young follower of Stasis and resident of Portet. By all accounts a capable warrior who had been dismissed from the army after the Battle of the Red Sword.

His body is in an alley behind his home, not far from the temple of Stasis. The body is in poor condition.

Is there a lot of blood in the alley where his body was found?

Also, which group of constables was he working with?

Yes

His squad is from Cape Tolya. Their sergeant is a human man named Will Strongsail.

Could the alley actually support a wyvern attack? How wide is it?

The alley is 8' wide. A Wyvern could squeeze in but the buildings on either side are only 15' high and an adult Wyvern could reach down from a roof top with its jaws or tail easily.

What time of day was the attack?
The exact time is unknown. He was with his squad during the events of the day and remained about three hours past the end of his shift but did not report in the morning. That leaves you an 8-10 hour window.

Any response to these questions?

Cold and cloudy but free of precipitation.

Keeping in mind that the constables know nothing of what has been reported elsewhere, Ari does not get any reports of apparitions or the like.

Pillar says time on the outer planes is almost completely disconnected from the prime and also varies from plane to plane and even layer to layer.

I'll read the Psychic Impression of the Ally to confirm what happened.  Just need some cover, I set up my little hammock and curl up and start the read.

You can continue this thread to delve into Quorl's history, ask Pillar questions etc.
