    Silence pervades the island as they carry the body away. Finally the reach the inside of the Barn, and Melody nods toward a hay bale. Over here.

    Well, I cook lunch and dinner. Melody insists on raw fruits and vegetables for breakfast. And I have to clean the bowls from last night, still. Estia usually helps me with that.... She looks up at Derek, leaving the question unasked.

    How about after lunch? There are a lot of dishes to wash. Did I forget to mention the cooking kettles, the utensils, cups, and occasional plate? She sighs. And then I have to begin preparing lunch. I usually have some time after that though.

    After they carefully place the stretcher on the hay, Melody pulls back the sheet that's covering the body. So, what brings you here? You have a headache, or the flu maybe? Reinholdt, if he's looking, will see multiple stab wounds to the chest of the man before them.

"We buried the soul too, figured we'd leave it with him, till you put fifteen million on the table. We think we'd understand, but, we're still not gonna be the ones to dig up his grave. That's what happened to us."
    Marciano takes the shovel upsettedly. He begins to dig quickly, somehow being ablle to dig with amazing strength. He'll dig until he reaches a body. "So...your brother died? How?" Marciano seems to be sweating, his orange suit rather hot for the environment. "Why couldn't you deliva this t' me AC'ed office..."

    Swamp of Doom

    Big mistake. The worst mistake Marciano's made this whole time, narrowly beating out sending his guards away and then handing over the money before receiving the goods. You'd think the telekinesis device's failing would have set him on guard, but the first time he sinks the shovel into the earth to start digging, it sticks.


    There are many kinds of creatures in this swamp, mostly bugs. Of these bugs, spiders are only second to beetles in number and variety. And among the varieties of spider present; hissing, jumping, spinning, spitting, there is one type of spider that does not hunt, but spins itself a nest of steel-strong silk hidden beneath a layer of leaves and bracken and waits within, waits for some foolish fool to foolishly to wander upon it's lair and disturb the sensitive fibers of the web.

    As the shovel bites through the outer debris and strikes the funnel of webbing beyond, something old and hungry and endlessly unpleasant stirs. With almost lightning speed the hill of leaves explodes outwards, the tiny little spiders crawling upon it fleeing in all directions as their mother launches herself towards Marciano, mandibles drooling with acidic bile and poised to sink into the halfling's soft flesh from either side.

    And the brothers? They've already taken off running, each heading down a different trail into the swamp at a dead sprint, leaping over snakes and detouring round deep pools as they go. Marciano's set off their trap, best not stick around and see if he lives.

    Everything's fine. If you ignore the murder victim. she then turns her head aside, as if remembering something. And there were these two strange kids. I seem to remember selling them something. Huh, odd.

    She looks back to Reinholdt. And how've you been? I see pink is back in fashion. she smiles.

    Reinholdt stops being pink when he stops flying or using his hypnotic powers of suggestion that he never uses. >>

    "I meant between us." Reinholdt elaborates, just in case it wasn't clear, before answering Melody's question.

    Melody shrugs. I'm not sure. I mean... I want to be friends, I wish things could go back to how they were, but I screwed it all up. she hasn't looked Reinholdt in the face, and is currently counting the stab wounds of the victim.

    Swamp

    Marciano growls. He should have known! He drops the shovel and screams out. He pulls out a little pistol thing. He pulls the trigger and huge flames bellow out the barrel. Clone Marciano thought to himself, "Well...Might as well torch everything." He spins the flame-pistol at the spiders wildly. "Aah! I'll burn you all!"

    She says, pronouncing it like "genie" instead of the French pronunciation her mother intended (and which Mercutio most likely used). "How do you think I got here? Her Painfu... Her Ladyship, Morgana, likes to keep the the succubus/incubus population growing. We go back and forth all the time."

    Jeanne props herself up a bit with her elbows behind her, but is content to stay mostly sprawled. "You didn't answer my question, so I'll add another to the list. How do you know my name?"


    Mercutio quirks an eyebrow at Jeanne's self-correction but offers no comment. And yes, he used the French pronunciation. He has quite an impeccable accent.
    "Your name was written at the top of the letter you were reading. You'll forgive me if I stole a glimpse." He gives one of those awfully smug smiles that only a Pride devil can give.

    With his hands still clasped behind his back, Mercutio begins to pace a slow circle around Jeanne. So. A run-away succubus who has utterly abandoned her duties. Quite an unprecedented case, if I may say so. Which begs the question of how to treat it? A transfer, perhaps. Ship you off to some other, more fitting circle of hell. Of course, that would require finding a circle willing to take a devil unsuited to the work and another devil willing to give up his post to fill yours. Which is possible, I suppose, but unlikely. Perhaps a termination of your neglected duties? There are proper channels for this, if largely unused. A gift would have to be presented to Lady Morgana, of course. Something large enough to make up for the hole you've left behind." Mercutio pauses, frowning in thought. "But what does one get for the Queen of Succubi?

    Instinctively the beast shies back, retreating partway into it's lair to escape the hateful fire biting at it's hide. But simple fear isn't going to hold the tyrant of the swamp at bay. A second later it fires a bolt of webbing towards Marciano, highly flammable webbing that passes right through the fan of flames, igniting in the process and turning to ball of clinging flames aimed straight for Marcy's face.

    Clever, for a mere arachnid.

    "I have my reasons for being here." Mercutio says with a dismissive hand-wave. "And if these reasons ever become relevant to you, I may tell you them."

    The so-called Pridefoot turns give Jeanne a somewhat irritated look. "Now are you willing to make a deal or am I waisting my time, Miss Jeanne-Antoinette?"

    One: It's Jeanne. Call me that other thing again, and we're done.
    Two: I haven't run away. My mother's letter found me because she knows exactly where I am.
    Three: I'm not unsuitable as a devil, just as a succubus. I'm all for mortal suffering and damnation and all that jazz. I just don't want to **** them.

    I'll withdraw my previous question and replace it with 'What is your name?' I'll even be more courteous than you and call you by your preferred name rather than your Iron Queen approved 'real' name."

    Mercutio quirks an eyebrow at Jeanne, falling silent at her little show of self-assertion. After a moment, he tilts his head in deference and nods.
    "As you request. However I do believe you misunderstood me on the third point. My point is not that you are not a suitable devil. I'm sure you're a perfectly fine devil. What I meant is that you may not be cut out for the specific work certain circles may require of you. But that is a mere complication... Miss Jeanne." Oh look. He even pronounced it as requested. How courteous of him. "And if it helps, you may call me Paris. Now if we may move along?"

    Jeanne sits up completely now, crossing her legs and ready to talk business as she looks up at Mercutio. It doesn't bother her that he's in a supposedly dominate position by being standing. Succubi are rather used to doing much of their work beneath their victims.

    "Thank you, Paris. Now to answer your question: My great-aunt Morgana, Lady of Pleasure and Pain, Queen of Succubi, Archdevil of the First and Second Circles wants power. Power to maintain her hold over her two Circles and eliminate her rivals, and power for its own sake." Jeanne says. She's well aware that she gave him two pieces of information, by including the familial relationship, and did so deliberately. She has no doubt that he'll use that information in some way that she wont approve of, but she also wants him to know that if he screws her too badly, she has friends in high places she can call on. It isn't something she'd do unless the trouble were serious - after all, Morgana has a huge family, and can't look closely after them all - but it's more protection than most people have when they try to make deals with a devil.

    Great-aunt, is it? Mercutio considers this information in silence for a moment, gazing passively down at Jeanne. Perhaps he could use this, but with so many degrees of separation and how... populous Lust devils were, Mercutio doubted Jeanne was anything more than one of many.
    Interesting that she brought it up, though.

    "One does not become Archdevil of two circles without a healthy craving for power. That she would still desire power is not a revelation. The question is what power have I that can facilitate your desire?" Mercutio lifts a hand to his chin, his tail swishing thoughtfully behind him.
    "Perhaps a gift of knowledge. A book from my library..." Depending upon how familiar Jeanne is with devils from Pride Life, she may realize that this is quite a generous offer. "Tell me, are there any areas on which your great-aunt may want to expand her knowledge?"

    ~***~

    MagForest

    As Libby lazily chases after a lost, dead goat, a certain devil is searching for her. And he's not being nearly as lazy about it.

    Mercutio all but storms through the forest as he seeks her out. Clad in a three piece suit and his red and gold coat, the devil's goat eyes are narrowed in anger.

    Upon finding the Death avatar, he cuts right into the matter. "Libitina! You are transgressing your role and in doing so would cheat me out of a deal. Explain yourself, wench."

    Aha, gotcha you little...
    No wait, off the little goat goes again, startled by something tromping around.

    Oh hey, some infernal thing.

    The reaper glances over at Mercutio, faintly annoyed (but not really) and proceeds to look down at herself.
    Then her surroundings.

    Her spectral oversized-shovel is pointed towards the goat.

    She looks to the side, a slightly embarrassed look on her face. I do, but.... Well, it's not exactly made for swimming, so much as for looking "hot" on the beach. she says, with finger quotes.

    "You do remember that I have a girlfriend, right?" Reinholdt asks.

    "You shouldn't have done what you did, but I shouldn't have given you the opportunity either. And it's not like I've never done things I shouldn't have before."

    "So. We move on. Just like that." Reinholdt affirms.

    Ermine. Her name is Ermine. The ermine pirate with the flying airship.

    "She's good. Got some good hauls lately. I'm actually meeting her in a little bit, so I can't stay long." Reinholdt's lying really. He hasn't seen her in months.

    "Well, that depends on if you want to try to catch the killer or just take care of the body while someone else does that. I'll be honest, with the body, just have a service and bury it very soon unless you have some way to keep it from rotting. If you're looking for a killer, determine cause of death, find the murder weapon if you can, and look for the MMO: Motive, Means, and Opportunity."

    Well, the cause of death is multiple stab wounds to the chest. I believe I have the murder weapon. A bloody knife floats up from a nearby table. The killer tried to plant it on a visiting merchant.

    Motive: Jealous rage. Opportunity: Last night, while everyone is asleep. We don't exactly have guards walking the perimeter. That just leaves Means.
    she looks up at Reinholdt, questionmark face. What's that exactly?

    "Means refers to the equipment and knowledge to do the crime. Not particularly helpful here if it's just a random kitchen knife. If it's a special knife, you may look into that. Also, it'd have to be someone who knew about the traveling merchant." Which on an island probably means everyone.

    "How did you know the motive?"
