“

You eaten at the Elfsong before? Awful, just awful! Had a stew there once that looked like it had a finger in it.

Involvement

Act Three

Megthanet and Hilario Varota are at the western entrance of Elfsong Tavern in the Lower City. They are discussing the murder of Duke Stelmane in gory detail.

Idle banter

• Hilario Varota

  I heard it happened right here in the Elfsong. Sliced clean through Stelmane's neck.

  • Megthanet

    I heard her guts were placed on the ground in the shape of the Absolute's mark!

    • Hilario Varota

      I always said the Elfsong was haunted. Now it's doubly so.

• Hilario Varota

  They never found the head. Makes me wonder how they knew it was Stelmane.

  • Megthanet

    You can tell all sorts with technology these days. I'm sure she left some hair. Or teeth.

• Megthanet

  What would you do with a decapitated head anyway? Not like you could sell it.

  • Hilario Varota

    I can think of a thing or two. Nothing good, though.

    • Megthanet

      I'm never eating at the Elfsong again. What if there were bits.

If Enver Gortash is killed:

• Hilario Varota

  First Stelmane, and now Gortash! If the higher-ups aren't safe, what hope do we have?

  • Megthanet

    I heard Gortash was strangled with a piece of his own intestine!

    • Hilario Varota

      As if Stelmane's death wasn't horrid enough.

• Hilario Varota

  I wonder who will take charge now that Gortash is gone.

  • Megthanet

    Whoever it is, good luck to them. Those Absolutists won't stop just because there's a power vacuum.

    • Hilario Varota

      Probably responsible for his death, if you ask me.

      • Megthanet

        I always said he was doing too good a job. Better than Stelmane, in any case.

• Megthanet

  Do you really think it was Absolutists that killed him?

  • Hilario Varota

    Them or a disgruntled citizen.

    • Megthanet

      These dukes need to start improving their security. If they can't keep themselves alive, how can we expect them to protect us?
