That Thursday had started out ordinarily enough....after morning prayers and her usual practice bout with the armsmaster, Karen returned to her office/apartment and began looking through the latest reports....
The Watch Captain was unhappy that Dimitri Locherin was still on the loose. There was no real evidence to indicate he was guilty of the initial cases of arson for which he was arrested....indeed, much of the eyewitness reports and other evidence suggested it was Vanion who was the guilty party. But still, there was no denying the fact that he had broken out of the jail and killed a number of Guards while doing so.
Karen, for her own part, wanted Dimitri to remain free for now. Vanion seemed obsessed with Dimitri for some reason, making the half-elf a lightning rod for Vanion's attention....and a possible way to draw the vampire out, if needs be.
Monterre reported that his initial meeting with Lily had gone favorably....and that he never wanted to set foot in that place again. Mary May was sensitive to magicks, and she had sensed quite a bit of it in there. That, combined with the Temple's policy of neutrality regarding the Myr'Khul, made the spymaster exceedingly distrustful of the leadership in the Temple of Divine Light.
Karen agreed with his sentiment....but she had other obligations to consider.
Lastly was a letter written by a hand she did not recognize....It detailed an expected attack on the Temple of Divine Light that very evening. The name was both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time, but the words had the ring of truth about them.
Karen quickly drafted a copy of the letter....it wouldn't do for the original to be floating about the city....and finished it off with specific instructions.
Monterre.
Investigate the details contained here-in. I require a report on both groups mentioned in this letter, as well as the person who sent it. All haste in this matter.
KW.
She sealed the letter and cast it out her window....certain that one of the spymaster's people would retrive it and take it to him.
