Wartable: Babysitting, the mission

[eternalsquire]

WHO: Kif, Amélie, Pamelia, Samouel.
WHAT: A boy has gone missing, and it's up to Kif and the Healers (a really obscure band, you probably haven't heard of them) to save the day OR DIE TRYING.
WHEN: Haring 2 and for a few days around then
WHERE: The Arling of West Hills
NOTES: Possibly some injuries? They're not actually going to die. Probably.

Dangerously close to the Fallow Mire (and by dangerous we mean sometimes there's a stiff wind that blows a stench into the area that may or may not actually be from the Mire BUT IT SMELLS BAD) lies a plot of land ruled by an increasingly ill Arl Gallagher Wulff, run by his daughter, Izot, and her husband, Lord Niall Packton, who give lip-service approval to the Inquisition while not giving permission to it to cross their lands, or any other form of support.

When Izot's only son goes missing, though, there's an opportunity to change matters around if they can find the boy in time.

Pamelia is also on team 'talking to these people would be like addressing a brick wall on it's shakiness', being an elf; thus she's also all for questioning the help, as it were, and finding things out around the parents. Might not be the most diplomatic approach, but. Not her fault most humans are racist against her kind, is it?

"We should take a look at his room ourselves. See what's there, and maybe what isn't?"

[eternalsquire]

"Okay." He's willing to do what she suggests. Kif is a natural-born follower, and he'll fall in with whatever seems to be a good suggestion.

"Do you, do you know what should be there?" He heads in the direction the servants had indicated before, looking over at her. "In a human boy's room." In a well-to-do human boy's room, no less.

"Only an idea, really." She's seen boys' rooms before after all. "But looking won't hurt."

Pamelia reaches forward and squeezes his hand. "At the very least we'll get an idea of what he's like. He's at the ripe age for an adventure; if nothing has been done to him, it may be as simple as that he's gone off to find one."

He gives her a tiny smile before squeezing her hand back. A few minutes later he's opening the door with his free hand and nodding toward the surprisingly tidy room. Or perhaps not that surprising; nobility can afford to have staff.

"Um. This is it. His boots and bag are gone, which probably mean something. I think."

[anacardiaceae]

"Either he took them or someone took them to make it look like he left." Pamelia wishes they knew what was in the bag, but unfortunately...

"There's books." A lot of books, for a boy his age. She goes and opens a wardrobe. "A few things are missing from here, too." She can tell by the empty hanging spaces where no empty space would normally be.
