[20:06] <@BradGM> +++Location: Shadowed alley close to/ Rooftops 30 and 40 meters away from an old butchery, Meat District, Arnhut, Sisk+++
[20:06] <@BradGM> +++2206Hours- Arnhut Time+++
[20:06] <@BradGM> +++ Mockingbird returned to the Temple beforehand, gathering their arms and equipment for the confrontation. A quick investigation in the meat district singled out the old butchery rapidly; aupex and psychic powers confirmed the presence of 4 men: obviously the three Bryton Brothers with another, unknown man.
[20:06] <@BradGM> With the possibility of the quatuor having access to simple imperial technology, such as aupexes, simple alarm devices and the like, an all-out assault with the element of surprise was ruled out.
[20:07] <@BradGM> Grendel took position near the staircase leading to the second floor, the only standard exit that is not a boarded window, while Mira and Lazerus took sniper position. Gunshots were fired, the assassin acting as distraction while Psyker used his powers to hit home, but the bowmen discovered their vantage point.
[20:07] <@BradGM> Meanwhile their unknown accomplice moved to exit the butchery, right into Grendel’s kill-zone. +++

[20:08] <@BradGM> We ended with Grendel last game; so the round begins anew; Bryton, the man and Lazerus, Mira and Grendel

[22:29] * Lazerus cleans his scythe blade and searches the bodies, dispatching Demon to search the rest of the building.
[22:30] <@BradGM> You manage to reach the same roof as the blacken silouhette, but you need to take a break for now.
[22:31] * Grendel starts to examine the building, checking for technology and other clues.
[22:33] <@BradGM> The bodies contain some cash, a primitive knife dagger, the clothing are the same as the piece of cloth you found; can even match it on the headshoted body. two had aquila pendants, two had rings on them. Demon searches the room, finding waht you can deduce is some stashed bottle, a flute and some cards. one room is empty of everything but a bed, but there is some lingering other of soemone else he detects, not the Bryton, and its storng too
[22:35] <Lazerus> "Assassins. Pawns. Our hope for clues are with Mira and the mysterious man."
[22:35] * Grendel nods, looking over the rings carefully, running diagnostics on his mechadendrite.
[22:36] <@BradGM> The headshoted Bryton is wearing a photo-goggles, there is also a couple fo pair lying in the room. There is also around 60 or so arrows. Their bows are modern made, composite bows with pulleys, allowing the firer greater force when knotching an arrow.
[22:37] <@BradGM> Mira, you crash dwon and try to catch a breath. You see the man hovering near you, but keepign his distance still.

[22:41] <@BradGM> The man stands still. Despite is alien moves, he is wearing your human standard webbing, with standard weapons, if only of rather superior workmanship that you have or currently saw on this world.
[22:42] <@BradGM> Grendel, the rings are actually genuine and should fetch a fair price.
[22:42] <@Mira> "Alright, man of few words.. Another topic maybe? Why are you trying to kill us?"
[22:43] <Grendel> "Should we inquire as to how Mira is doing, or will that distract her?"
[22:43] <@BradGM> ((also, they were lcoal criminals; , so eprhaps a reward is there))

[22:53] * Grendel checks his rifle and his mechadendrites. "This way. There is xenos technology nearby." He moves ploddingly towards the stairs, following the traces on his auspex.
[22:53] * Lazerus looks over at the Tech-Priest. 1"How far?"
[22:54] * @Mira turns her head slightly as the man speaks, recognizing the odd tone, "Someone tried to kill me today. A lot of dead bodies later and people talking, we were lead to the butchery."

[23:00] <@BradGM> As for image, Mira seems to be on her knees trying to catch her brrath, while the man hover 6-7 meters away, with his rather luxurious equipment
[23:01] <Lazerus> "That's Mira. Xenos you say? She looks to have things under control for the moment." 6Lazerus's eyes are glazed over, so he seems actually to be looking at her.
