The tunnel would be a good start. Asking questions about the old King directly might raise suspicions. There has to someone out there who is unhappy with the situation."

"Why you? You are all I have. You have proven yourselves capable and you and the 1/2 orc are members of the Silver Sword. From what I hear this is right up your alley. And you are a dwarf. This might not be your warren but I am hoping what is happening here offends you enough for you to do something about it."

"Now, you must go. The dwarves will be back soon for the dishes. You should leave with them. They will cover your leaving. I'll go down first."

Allistair speaks up hastily. "Wait. We will need to be in fairly regular contact if we are to coordinate our efforts. Is there some easier way we can be in contact with each other? If there is someone that does have access to your rooms, I can magically transform myself to appear like them. If you let us know your schedule for when you will be out in public, we could arrange for a magical conversation where we can whisper to each other from hundreds of feet away."

"Also one last question. Do you suspect any of the other ambassadors may be involved? What country would gain the most from strife between the Underkingdom and Bhyo?"

Just as the Lady is preparing to climb down the rope she stops. "We should meet again. Come back here at lunch time in two days time. I don't know if all three of you have to come. That seems risky to me." She waits a few seconds to see if there are any other questions.

OODM: Last chance and then I will move the story on.

Did you send this before or after Allistair asked his questions about meeting again and about the other ambassadors?

"There are several dwarves that are in and out but I hope you speak dwarf. I don't want to risk being seen anywhere near any of your party, even by accident."

" I suspect all of them and none of them. What I mean is that I have no evidence that any of them are involved but these things are exactly what someone would plan. The country and would benefit most from my not being around is probably Fornax. They also have a large forest and have been trying to convince King Dar to use their foundry works instead of ours. They have been trying for years and years but Dar would not give them any serious consideration."

At this, Ragnar speaks up. "Actually there is a way we can pass short messages with complete secrecy; Heironeous grants his followers this ability. I would be able to send a message to you, which would be relayed directly to your mind with no need for meetings or messengers, after which you can reply in kind, my Lady. Be aware however, that the message must be short; 25 words or less. If there is an urgent need, we may contact you in this manner."

She nods "That will be wonderful. Let's use that to set time for one of you to come here and report more indepth. You should also contact me that way every couple of days so that I can let you know if I have found out anything."
