Lightdew Off-Book Investigation Notes

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Official channels blocking my investigation. Yuan-Ti Subversion.

Lawcleaver compromised. Direct or indirect? Will have to watch elements in the Fourth closely.

Aubrey - Communication with Diakos.
Dommhall - Wanted to spare Sibilant. Downplays their threat.
Banda Rossa - Defended Archwyrmist Kozlo
Smoking Human Woman - Claims to be anti-Sibilant. Smokescreen.

More evidence. Aubrey speaks the accursed name of the Ninth Spoke on the Bellows.

Legates must outlaw it.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Ariel - spoke the name of the Ninth. Employed standard screeching tactic. Politics or secret Wyrmist?

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Deathclaw assassins came on us in Gutters. Know I'm getting close to the truth. Afraid for their Yuan-Ti agents. Targeted me, not patrol.

Keijo, Cavanaugh, Shapechanger Xon, Bronzegate. Refused to betray me to the Sibilant. Unlikely to be compromised.

Lawcleaver stopped my investigation. Now that he is gone, they send assassins. Shows escalation pattern.

Possibilities:
Fourth is infiltrated. Yuan-Ti know that I know. Threat requiring elimination
Scribes are infiltrated. Timing of assault on Rose Gate. Traitor leaked government assembly's travel plans. Dislike my suspicions, want me eliminated.
Non-Accord infiltration. Must watch the crowds closely.
It was Aubrey. Her plan to say Wyrm's true name thwarted by my daily bellows.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Discussed assassination plot with Legate. Other Legate may be Sibilant.

We will coordinate. Begin a plan to route out Yuan-Ti infiltrators. Highest levels of secrecy.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Scribe Bashir - Intentional suppression or lazy halfling? Will watch.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Palatial Pyramid. Legion. Banda Rossa.

Scouts. Or coordinator of scouts. Organising raid on orc for benefit of Sibilant. Yuan-Ti.

Can feel their eyes on me. Watching. One. Many of them is a spy. They know that I know.

Sometimes miss swamp. Anything in swamp could be killed.

Samira - Could be cultist. Or idiot serving Wyrm's purpose. Will watch, let Magistrate verdict stand for now.
Radislav - Showed me Wroth fires. But drinks tainted drink. Where was he? What is he planning? Not Wyrmist. Could be deceived?

Still have not found the Sibilant Agents responsible.

Will check targets, see what leaks.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Keijo, Bronzegate - Fled. Retired.

Caddy - Died.

Of those that have stood against the Sibilant's designs. Denied their Deathclaws and fought with me. All that remains is Xon. Xon. Xon.

Is it coincidence that they are all gone? Or does the Enemy's shadow hand move to take them from me, one by one.

Do not like this. Memory.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Scratch the surface. Turn a corner. Treason.

Each layer unravels more.

And beneath. Beneath. A Wyrm.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Something or someone has given me a ring. Eyes shimmer. Glow. Turns their spears. Claws. Gleam and show deceit. Lurkers. Yuan-Ti?

Could be Wroth. Giving me tool to hunt down prey. Or Warad.

Will test on Chief Scribe.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Ring opens eyes. See the hidden. The invisible skulker. Plotting. Sneaking. What are they hiding?

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Learned more about Wyrm. Know where the snakes are.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

The burning of the Deathclaw. It was done intentionally. Covering loose ends. Too many possibilities. I can sense the clawed hand slowly closing around the Well. The malignance that lurks within and without.

Need to gather more information on Wyrm. Find other ways to thwart her.

[IKeepForgettingMyUserName]

Trail has gone cold. Only a few threads left. Following.

Think Fellstar might finally begin to understand how far the Wyrmist taint extends. The snakes that slowly constrict around us. Choking. Broken bone.
