Miko - "I thought you said he had hesitated before deciding not to show you, on account of it containing secrets he felt were irrelevant to the situation. But it is relevant, so perhaps he spoke the truth of being willing to share the diary if he truly thought it would help?"
Burkhard - He mentioned that there was nothing written in the diary that pertained to the situation. I believe he was referring to the situation of how his sister came to be cursed. The other main reason why he wouldn't allow any of us to look at the diary was that it contains things that he can not allow to become public knowledge. Now, I might just be over-extrapolating here, but what if he's wrong about the diary having no information pertaining to why Lady Varel was cursed? What if the things that he can't allow to become public knowledge are related to his sister performing a sacrifice for a likely frowned upon, if not outright forbidden, Scion spell? There is a decent chance that he doesn't even know that the man that was sacrificed was the Wood Witch's grandfather.
Burkhard walked through the market and to the Wood Witche's shop, Adahy once again hitching a ride on his arm. He waited for the others to arrive before he knocked on the door.
**Miko arrives. If Burkhard doesn't knock on the door she does.**
Miko - "Here is what we have to say: Varel filled a sphere with his memories of Felix's death, which he feels will confirm that his sister was not the one that killed him. We also know the name of a mercenary group from a hundred years ago that was involved in the event - the shadow walkers. The sphere is single use, I saw Varel activate it in a way that looked like filling it with memories, but none of us can identify items. Your opinion?"
The woman began mixing herbs with a mortar and pestle. She rubbed the mixture into her eyes and starred into the orb intently. After a few moments she cautiously picked up the sphere and crushed it in her palm. Her eyes glazed over for a moment and when she came back to the world tears rolled unchecked down her cheeks.
WW - "What a terrible sorrow... I was... I was so wrong!"
Cassandra made her way into the goblin market at what would have been late evening anywhere else in Bakara. She wandered among the stalls and stands, not really looking for anything in particular. She kept her sense for potential at the back of her mind, seeing if anything jumped out at her as having hidden depths.
**There was unsurprisingly a fair amount of traffic throughout the market, time seemed to have no bearing in Sylvan, or perhaps it did, no matter, the bazaar was abuzz with activity. Besids the usual goods of various sellers, Cassandra's sense of things drew her attention to a rather suspicious looking individual who currently was cornering a rather nervous looking young woman, the figure had cut-off her attempts to break away from his unwanted advances, and she searched around nervously in the hopes that someone would intervene.**
Cassandra let her eyes meet with the woman's, she nodded as she walked towards the pair. She glanced around the feet of the suspicious figure, hoping to catch a glimpse of their shadow to read.
Drunk - *Hiccup* Come on, you wicked girl don't--don't you know who I am?
**Cassandra could tell who he was, even if the girl couldn't. She got the distinct impression he was an aristocrat, and possibly a threat. She noticed he was becoming agitated, and had been reaching for something within his frock coat at the moment he addressed the girl. She meanwhile, had locked eyes with Lady Montferrat gratefully relieved.**
Cassandra nodded again, manipulating the shadows around her face to obscure her features. She dropped into an improvised drawl as she hooked the handle of her parasol over his shoulder and tugged.
