The Wraiths of Ilien - Part 2

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

Positively beaming the Pontiff replies

"Your Excellency I thank for your willingness to aid the CoT.

Permit me to ask for the task to be charged to CoT in general and not RSC in particular.

Baron Kaven and RSC may have other task more pressing which only they have the needed skills to perform [OOC the Veil stuff]. If giving the task to CoT in general one of the temples with the needed resources and skills in interogation can do the task. In that case I can take the task to CoT and find a suiteable temple to perform it. Needless to say Your Excellency will be offered to have an observer present for the interogations"

[X-Ilien & PCE/GeM (Linde)]

Geraldine smiles and looks at the Pontiff
"Personally I would be happy to let you take the matter to the CoT and decide whom you would send from there. Sadly it is against Ilien law and tradition to let others than the authority in Ilien question and interrogate prisoners of the city."
She thinks for a moment.
"Perhaps you would like it if Priestess Alliene Tilgentor of ETN were in charge of the interrogation? But she should only be our second choice if Baron Enlien declines."
The Countess looks at Baron Kaven Enlien: "Would you or one of your men be able and willing to question the prisoners you have taken?"

[ooc: Baron Kaven Enlien should feel free to reply ^_^]

[X-Medoere & RCS/KE (Thorsten)]

Kaven nods thoughtfully.
"It is not an opportunity I relish, but I believe, that information could be retrieved from them. I will look into it, as soon as possible. Thank you for your trust, Your Excellency."

[X-Ilien & PCE/GeM (Linde)]

"That settles it then." Geraldine smiles and looks at the Pontiff: "Baron Enlien has taken it upon RCS of the Conclaves to interrogate the prisoners."
She raises her glass and holds it high for all the guests to see:
"A toast to you all. You are truely heroes of Ilien."

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

The Pontiff toast albeit with little enthuiasm.

"Your Excellency has there been any more activity from the Red Wind or the Black Raiders?"

[X-Ilien & PCE/GeM (Linde)]

"Nothing that has been confirmed at this moment, Your Holiness. I am currently having rumors of the common men investigated to make sure there are nothing malevolent behind them. If I find any malevolent force to be behind I will inform you immediately."

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

"Yes please do Your Excellency. If anything comes to the attention of the Clergery of IHH they will report to your Chamberlain"

[X-Tornilen/SM (Alexander)]

The Swordmage raises her glass in response to the Countess' toast.
"Hero of Ilien - not an appellation I have borne before. Let's hope it sticks."
She downs the glass in a single gulp.
"I look forward to your findings, this wraith might be connected to the Red Wind, or it might a be a coincedence. No way to know, perhaps you could allow the Pontiff to be present for the interrogations? He needs to know, as the head of the Conclave."
She shrugs, sitting back down.
"At any rate, I hope this means I can walk freely in the city here again. You have a lovely city and it is irritating always to have to make it an official event when I visit."

[X-Ilien & PCE/GeM (Linde)]

"The Pontiff is most certainly welcome to be present at the interrogations. I just thought his Holiness would have more pressing isues to persue. But he would bless our dark dungeons with his presence."
The Countess smiles warmly: "It would be a terrible breach of etiquette if we did not recieve warning when a hero of Ilien visits. How would you expect us to honor you as you decerve. I simply could not allow that."

[X-Tornilen/SM (Alexander)]

The Swordmage raises an eyebrow. "Well played my lady, it is your city to command. I'll give notice if I wish to visit in the future, on official business or not."

With that she returns to the feast with a good appetite.

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

"Your Excellency thank you for the offer. The interogation is very important. If I come not myself may I send someone else in my place to assist with the interogation?"

[X-Ilien & PCE/GeM (Linde)]

Geraldine nods "Your Holiness or any of your assistants are ofcause welcome to come and observe the interrogation."
She pauses "As to the assistance, Baron Enlien has accepted the responsibility for the interrogation. So it is up to him to accept or deny any help offered. But with the importance of the matter I could not se why he should deny any assistance Your Holiness could grant."
