I'm concerned that, if Maytr was there at the house, he may have marked them as being friends of ours and that may put them in danger. Plus, being people with useful talents, Benn knows he'll need help for this hunt.

Makes perfect sense. And, yes, he was able to reach them for the invitations, so reaching them again the next day by letter is too easy.


If nobody has other plans in game, I can set up this next scene now.
EDIT
I have done so.

If you wanted a separate scene in-between, let me know.

ADAM, I'm guessing Benn's letter is not heavy on specifics. Is it?
Tea-time meetup seems reasonable. And a warning of danger is reason enough for any PC who wants to bring his gear to do so.

Questions, comments, concerns?

If not, you guys can get rolling with your scene. I will interject as needed, but feel free to improvise and RP as you like.

Late summer day in a temperate climate. The city. Canals, bridges, cobbled streets, many old house.
The river.
Use these elements as you like. Or not. You can skip straight into RP with other characters if that is what you like. I'm only giving guidance for now.

Trying to get an idea of the itinerary for the day. The body is being delivered to the office for a postmortem. Mr. I has been instructed to meet me there. And I'm meeting with the party members for tea. Would I do the first two things in the morning, then?

It's as if the dice gawds hate you.

I'm just glad there is a built-in dice roller, so nobody mistakenly thinks I am a killer DM, or something.


Well, at least it was not in combat...

I have been a bit busy today and probably will be tomorrow.
I hope to catch up by tomorrow night.

It makes sense he'd react quickly in that case.
