I'm Eunhyuk. That's Lucien and Shu, and Castti. [he will gesture to each,] We were in Stormhail, in the Sacred Guard headquarters. We were looking for a woman named Alpates.

[wow if eunhyuk went into his cleric palace would he recognize these as church robes,

[ it's almost like i want you to do a body check my darling yaywon
anyway yes, he can tell it was likely made from a sharp weapon! like a REALLY big sword. she's still flipped over face down in the blool though. the robes are not familiar at all from his cleric mind palace, but oddly...there's a voice that comes from somewhere in the back of his head. it's familiar, mellifluous and warm. perhaps belonging to a certain cleric you do know.
That the Pontiff kept her a secret even from me... she really must be very important. Should we have stopped her...? And with a mission from her clan, no less. I wonder what her mission was... ]
[temenos.... reaching across galaxies to give him a little bit of his mind palace.....
...Then, this is really Alpates....
Eunhyuk will finally carefully turn her over then. he'll use the cuff of his sleeve to try and wipe away the blood on her face. is there is also a hole here in her chest]
because you are the inquisitor, you know your way around dead bodies. you know this because you're eunhyuk, also, but you know. when you flip her over, you'll find that yes! there is indeed a hole in her chest. it looks like she was stabbed straight through. her eyes are wide open, and extremely dark - in fact, there appears to be a bit of black in her sclera. weird.
as he wipes the blood off of her face, he'll find it comes away easily enough. her blond hair is stained, and the big hole in her chest does indicate she was certainly stabbed. she has a few other marks. smaller stabs, that would have belonged to a smaller weapon. a dagger, maybe. ]
[ oh i forgot about your black eyes problem. oops. well hey i guess it's more like purpley than super black? does that help comfort you sweet eunhyuk. (it doesnt)
anyway, wow, yes! as he pats down her clothing, he will find something's not right. she has no bag, but in her robes, there is a hidden pocket! it's stitched so carefully into her clothing that he almost could have missed it had he not been smart enough to pat her down.
inside the pocket is a small, folded paper that simply reads Where the light meets the darkness, the light shall not fade. and the bottom of the paper reads: Alpates.
while he's looking at the paper, he may not notice it, but the purple black shadow is starting to appear at her neck, as well, just above her collar. ]
[IT DOESNT........ but he will note that it's more purpley, though if his guard wasn't raised before it's all the way up there now,
but also oooooh small folded paper... he carefully unfolds it and reads it very meticulously so he misses the purple black shadow starting to appear at her neck.
Why have a note signed with your name.........
he'll look back down at her body and reach out to close her eyes, how's the purple shadow doing,]
[ who knows! mystery. at least you know 100% sure this is alpates now, and other people who do not have access to temenos' cleric mind palace will also know you are telling the truth......
when he closes her eyes, he'll see the purple-y, black color has climbed up her cheeks. her body feels very, very cold. he may also have noticed because i forgot to say this earlier that alpates' hands and feet are both bound. ]

He'd try to loosen the bonds, but now he's definitely noticing the color? And the temperature? WHY IS THIS ANOTHER SWEET HOME THING?
Anyway, he immediately stands and moves a step back from the body.]

I'm Eunhyuk. That's Lucien and Shu, and Castti. [he will gesture to each,] We were in Stormhail, in the Sacred Guard headquarters. We were looking for a woman named Alpates.

her expression shifts, almost as if she's just heard some really fucking awful bad news — before it smooths out into something else entirely.]
So you're tellin' me Alpates is a woman. And that's her corpse?
no subject
...We weren't given a physical description.
[but there's a furrow in his brow like he's reaching the same conclusion,]
We were told that she stole something from the Cathedral. We were also told that she ran because she was in danger after the Pontiff died.

The letter called her Alpates, and the people we talked to referred to her by name. Why?
[IS ALPATES... THE TREASURE?]
no subject
... Just wonderin', that's all. So you were sent to bring her and the treasure she stole back? Like an inquisitor or something?
no subject
At first, yes, but we've heard conflicting information. We were hoping to ask her for her version of events.

A little too late for that.
