Returning to the bar of the same Inn, Noel ordered a pint of beer. “So, what's the latest?” He'd casually ask the barman, having put the money for his pint on the bar as the barman begun filling a tall glass with liquid gold. “Well, where to start really.” The bar man sighed, it was a lie to say that Dahlia was a nice place. “Oh yeah, some guy got attacked across the street yesterday. Some people said he was naked.” Noel raised his brow a little, turning over to the entrance of the bar to see the direction the barman meant. “Someone killed a bunch of monks the other day.” Noel continued to listen to the barman, he had quite a few things to tell that all were on the same level of insanity depending on who'd you ask. “Huh, lovely town huh?” The bar man sighed, and begun attending other guests. Noel thought it might be interesting to investigate some of these events. After downing his pint, he headed into the street - going the direction the barman pointed at when he explained what he'd heard. There was no body, but noticeable markings of blood splattered across the entrance of the alley. Noel inspected the markings, he couldn't tell if these were created due to blunt-force or piercing trauma. Some drips of blood covered the entrance ground as well, it had rained the night before so most of it was swept up already.
Noel sat on one knee, taking a good whiff of the blood. Another scent accompanied it. The strong odor of the victim penetrated his nostrils too much for him to make much sense. He couldn't tell whose it was yet. His next destination was pretty clear, the temple.
Arriving at the temple the barman described, he'd anticipate a somewhat more crowded place. There wasn't anybody there. Noel took it upon himself to travel through the empty temples, nobody present to stop him anyhow. There was blood splattered across all kinds of surfaces. Someone went quite loud, there were traces of magical destruction all over the place. Small crevices that were filled with guts, most bodies had been moved - or eaten by wild dogs, he couldn't tell. A massacre occurred here. There were a few scents that were all over the place, one in particular stood out. It resembled the one he noticed at the bar. Upon investigating the temple further, a koi pond without koi fish. His nose led him to a lake nearby. The scent was the strongest, the one that lingered on his brain. Interesting. While Jet flied around the sky temple, Noel ceased his investigation for now.
Noel left the temple, he couldn't quite tell which direction the figure went. The scent was quite old. He hadn't noticed how good his sense of smell was before, and thought it was odd he could tell this much now. Something definitely changed in him, he couldn't tell what it was yet. Noel headed back into town, perhaps the guild of this town knew more about these murders. He wasn't sure yet, but a guild by the name of Daeva Eye might have been settled here. Noel asked a random citizen, “Where's the Daeva Eye located?” The citizen pointed at the outskirts. Noel groaned a little, and nodded - symbolically thanking the citizen for this information. He'd head to the outskirts and shortly be met with a large purple compound began appearing within his vision. It was quite grand, his own guild hall felt somewhat more humble compared to this. Many scents emanated around the entrance of their guild hall. One in particular vaguely resembled the one he noticed in the temple. He couldn't tell for sure, it could have been another scent he sort of recognized as well.
He'd be standing still next to the elegant pond in front of their entrance. He was starting to second doubt his decision to come here. With his arms crossed, Noel realized he was about to tread some dangerous ground. This required a well thought and executed plan. After taking a moment to think of an elaborate plan, Noel headed closer to their entrance and eventually begun to knock upon their guild door. “Hello, is there anyone there!?” He'd shout behind the door, awaiting a reply from the inside.
