	Verga has found reports of an attack on a saurian woman named Karina and her daughter Ilyana, by people using a similar compass. “So you do think that is likely related, then?” Nesh nods, and Verga says thank you and ends the call.		Verga has found reports of an attack on a saurian woman named Karina and her daughter Ilyana, by people using a similar compass. “So you do think that is likely related, then?” Nesh nods, and Verga says thank you and ends the call.

	A little while later we are summoned to Suvatra’s office again. She has a file on Dalin Cheser, who was the horse merchant. He’s only 19 or 20, so it’s not a big file. His parents both died in the last year, and he inherited the business likely significantly earlier than he would have otherwise. The presentation to Her Majesty the Maharani had already been arranged when his mother died; she was expected to do the presentation. He has inherited the job and the obligation. As far as Quartz goes, he’s been a dwarf weaponsmith for over 100 years. He has a large file but none of which is particularly interesting.

	Nothing particularly interesting on Mikhailovich over the last six month’s he’s been in the city. Arrived on a boat claiming to be from Orange (not from a specific city, which Stella flags is unusual). Suvatra probably won’t be able to get a file quickly on whether anyone in Orange knows him. It looks to her as if he introduced himself into society fairly quickly and easily; a Saurian who is a talented Yellow mage drew attention. It caused quite a stir for a few months. He does not seem to have evacuated anything from the rooms he was staying in. He was both a skilled mage and skilled in the social arts, and a Saurian with a large amount of resistance. There were a few vetting efforts when he was hired as the chief engineer. They did not turn up anything untoward; it’s unclear as of yet whether… it’s currently her suspicion that he used a Yellow spell to make it look like he dropped his defenses and nothing untoward showed up. He was likely not higher than 20 Magic dice. He wasn’t a priest or a combatant at all. Likely also a Green mage, given the supplies recovered from his rooms. He did not have a Yellow disguise, most likely. Unless he had 20 dice, 15 suppress, a schtick in my spell cuts through my suppress, and a spell of my illusion isn’t detectable by yellow, he could possibly had a yellow illusion up. He could have had a potion of shapeshift, or maybe a Red spell? Hmm.		Nothing particularly interesting on Mikhailovich over the last six month’s he’s been in the city.

	A casual poke around doesn’t reveal too much about how long this has been.

The walls seem to be pretty good, it’s not clear yet if they’ll have gates or anything. The river is going to complicate things a bit. The city is mostly on the north bank, but there are suburbs/settlements south of the river. But the Walls will seriously rearrange how the city works. Stella ponders whether they’re using Orange.

	A little while later we are summoned to Suvatra’s office again. She has a file on Dalin Cheser, who was the horse merchant. He’s only 19 or 20, so it’s not a big file. His parents both died in the last year, and he inherited the business likely significantly earlier than he would have otherwise. The presentation to Her Majesty the Maharani had already been arranged when his mother died; she was expected to do the presentation. He has inherited the job and the obligation. As far as Quartz goes, he’s been a dwarf weaponsmith for over 100 years. He has a large file but none of which is particularly interesting.
