What happened? *open entry*Exiting the inner walls of the capital, you decide to wander a bit on the bridge outside the gates and take in the sights and the scent of the water. It seems that the bridge was nicely prepared after the Hans Incident, but that a different wood was used leaving what seems a scar on the wooden structure. Walking a bit out you see in the distance through the haze a figure laying on the ground.

Moving closer to the figure, I make sure that it is not armed, or at least is seemingly weak. With my scythe in my right hand I move over to the figure to check for vitals.

The man lays on the ground with tattered clothes stained with his own blood. Dirt covering his face, and with rough dirty hands he is clearly some type of farm worker. Looking a bit further off you see a wagon. Filled with soil of an apparently poor quality(as it looks dry and has rocks mixed in with it), you assume the man to be relatively poor. On the ground near the wagon is a dead lacrimabilis.

I approach the area towards the captain with one hand on my jutte. "Been a while since I actually saw you, find out anything?" I bend down towards the lacrimabilis and close its eyelids. I look towards the body to check the injuries.

*Archaic jumps out of the trees with his gladius in hands and looks at the lacrimabilis and at Beanbaker. A smile forms across his face and he crosses his arms as he approaches the scene.*
"Well now, I always knew you had some evil in ya Beanyboy. Seriously though, a lacrimabilis isn't nearly as fun as a person in regards to the taste of the blood or the body's twitching just before death."

Beanbaker

"Haha very funny. Don't you have a convent to torment right about now?"
I get up and wipe the blood off my hands. "Any trails?"
I look around, squinting as I look farther out, all 360 degrees.

Archaic

*Archaic throws Beanbaker a glare before moving on and walking towards the woods in the opposite direction from whence he came.*
"The convent never shown up, but I can tell you that if somebody did this, they most likely would not have left a trail nor would they have gone on the path. If I were them I would travel through the woods and try to mask my presence and hide my goods. Now I can tell you that they did not go the way I came, so lets go this way or you can continue trying to play tracker. Suit yourself, I'm out to get some delicious blood."
*Archaic grips his gladius and dashes off following his gut and leaving Beanbaker behind, forgetting how fast he is.*

Beanbaker realizes that there is no way in which he could keep up with the speed of an assassin.
Archaic, reaches a near by thicket(presumably the aforementioned woods). Lush green trees sprout up all around and some birds are seen in their canopies.
