Reports for Her Grace’s Secret Service as prepared by Agent Dublo Sahven
As instructed by Lady Devonsina, I have followed and made notes on a trio claiming to be spies in the Lady’s employ—though the veracity of this claim may be suspect. I picked up their trail at the Lemon Tree Inne. From there I followed them back to the castle where they proceeded to the Armoury. They seemed to be looking for new armaments. This is a troubling development which may pose a threat to Her Grace. They did; however, seem oblivious to the goings on in the forge—a minor bit of luck there.
Unable to accomplish anything at they forge, they moved on to Magnus’s. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to visit his shoppe, if not for nefarious purposes. I was unable to get close enough to make out the conversation between the trio and Magnus. He might be due for a shake down in the near future.
I then followed the interlopers to The Guild, which all but confirmed my suspicions that they couldn’t be trusted. To get a better view of their dealings in The Guild, I made my way to a second floor vantage point. From there, I lost track of them for about fifteen minutes or so but when [I emerged] they emerged, the big one was brandishing a new blade of what appeared to be exceptional craftsmanship, though he appeared to lack the skill to wield such an exquisite weapon.
Unfortunately, after The Guild, I was forced to follow these ne’er-do-wells from one unsavoury establishment to another; Emmeretta’s, The Brush and Bottle, The Middler’s Hollow, The Pursuivant’s Arms, and I eventually ended my night at [Ol’ Dick’s] Richard’s Rich.
I was forced to begin tracking them again entirely too early the next morning, considering all the overtime I had put in the previous day. But I’m nothing if not dedicated to my work. I was able to pick up their trail at Filman’s. I arrived as they were leaving, so unfortunately I was unable to catch them partaking in any underhanded dealings, but I did overhear Filman whisper to them that “Norman was right about you lot”. I don’t know any Normans, but I think that I need to track him down and ask him a few questions. Perhaps Upstairs Mary will have a lead for me—I shall head back to The Guild and begin my search there.
