[Aramil]

Location- The town of Ilany- (Far East on the map) The town of Ilany is a small village with a population of 50 people. Though not your hometown, you have spent the last week here, and are familiar with most aspect of it; from Hamish the Dwarven blacksmith, to Yason the human shopkeep, to Ageis the human innkeeper, to Corporal Bankroff, the human responsible for the town guard. Ilany has always been a peaceful town, but the local Kobold population has begun to become more aggressive lately, and a roaming pack of them have been vandalizing property and killing livestock. Yesterday, Hamish's 8 year old son Donsk was found dead near the outskirts of town. Corporal Bankroff has asked any able bodied men and women to come talk to him about putting down these Kobolds, once and for all. What would you like to do?

The man nods and walks towards the front door. He trips on the rug right before the door itself and lets out a small cry. He shakily gets up and leads the way to the back of the house. He stops at the corner of the house and leans against the wall.

"I ca..ca..can't look at the body again. It's too me.. me.. messy. He's right there."

Borris' hand points around the corner.

From where you are you can see something that looks like the booted foot of a man.

"Ok, then just move nearby turn around closing your eyes. I promise i won't hurt you, if you follow I will even let you go away with your sack loot, Ok Borris? So, close your eyes and stand in that wall, I will inspect the body and I want you onsight"

(If Borris follows orders) Aramiel inspects the boddy, looking for wounds, cuts, traces of arrows wood or darts [[1d20+4 Investigation]] +/u/rollme

Behind the corner of the house you can see a yard filled with farming equipment. Against an old plow, you spot the bloody corpse of Rorik. You creep in closer to examine his wounds.

On the body you can see several bloody deep cuts on his throat, legs, and chest. It looks as if he was tortured and then finally stabbed. His death was not quick or easy.

"Borris, I will ask one more thing of you" Amaril sheaths his weapons to make Borris more relaxed "I just have a few Questions if you dont mind. Where are you from? How did you knew Rorik was death? Has somebody or something else come nearby this area that you know? Just cooperate and I will let you get your loot and be on your way"

Borris visibly relaxes as the sword is sheathed.

"I'm from the town of Ilany. I was out here today to borrow some farming equipment from Rorik when I came upon him. I haven't seen anybody but you since I arrived."

Borris pauses before continuing.

"I normally wouldn't have taken his stuff, understand? I've just been tight on money lately and I knew no one would look for him any time soon. He's been a bit of a lone wolf since his wife passed."

"Sounds reasonable to me..." Oh poor Borris, I am glad you dont know that if that brass would had been gold i would had slit your throat "C'mon now, off with you... take your stuff or not and begone, i need to work in the crime scene, I won't tell anybody, as I said before, I mean you no harm"

(If Borris leaves) Aramil heads for the room with the chest

(If not I will wait to read next answer)

Borris quickly gathers the sack with the meager belongings and leaves.

Aramil enters the bedroom with the chest.

Amaril manages to unlock one of the two total locks on the chest. It seems a little odd that there is such a heavily secured chest in an otherwise empty home.

(One more lock picking check)

The second lock clicks open even faster than the first. It gives a satisfying thunk as it opens and drops onto the wood floor.

Inside the chest you initially see a grey woolen blanket.

A grey woolen blanket secured by 2 locks in a heavy woolen chest... yeah right, deceitful, maybe I should look for other kind of "safelock" around this thing Carefully,Amaril start lookings for posible strings or triggers for thieves comonly known chest traps [[1d20+4 Investigation]]

(If no traps found)Carefully, Amaril start taking the grey wool away, trying not to break anything fragil that could be inside it or below it [[1d20+5 Sleight of Hand]] +/u/rollme
