Brilliantly done, Nezz, and Airich.

Poor Edwin is rapidly having some of his illusions about the sanctity of the university shattered. Hopefully he won't totally relapse into his father's cynicism about the world.

I just figured that after Bynw told us how Edwin knew him, it would really bother him. So I just went with that. I'm glad you approve.

[JudithR]

Very well done, Nezz.  Hope they manage to escape detection.

[Jerusha]

Well played Nezz!  But scary nonetheless.

[DerynifanK]

That is a scary group. Do they truly hate Deryni so much or is it lust for power and control that drives them?
I do wonder how a journey to find a recipe for a medicine and an effort to help Airich turned into an effort to uncover and stop the Williamites. And how the whole burden landed on them.

Yes they are a scary group. And I would say yes is the answer to the question about them.

As for the other question ... that's very easy.

The Willimites were already in Grecotha. The two students would have been beaten with or without the PCs there. As would the burning of the other Deryni. These were events that would have happened and did happen.

The PCs all had their own reasons for going to Grecotha and meeting by chance. But then they found themselves caught up in the situation and they were convenient to be given the task.

Remember it's not the modern world. There is no police force, detective agencies, CID, CSI, or any other professional investigator. They have proven that that can find things, uncover truths, detect lies, and capture the bad guys. So they are it.

Airich gives Bynw the stink-eye You couldn't have found a few additional someones?

[Nezz]

Well done, Jerusha. And what a clever use of those chicken bones.

[revanne]

Brilliant scene, Jerusha. I love the chicken bones.

[Nezz]

me pulls out the calculator, adds, subtracts, squares roots, gives up and counts on fingers, comes up with 3 1/2 months

Hey guys, didn't GotP take place in under a month?

[JudithR]

I must by psychic or managed stir the ether.  I no longer have to compose a witty post asking, "What about the king-in-exile?"

[Evie]

Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas!

[DerynifanK]

Those behind this effort to overthrow the king and seize power are men of influence and they already have an organization. It will be difficult for our group to stop them unaided, especially as they must protect themselves. Perhaps exposure of those involved and their intentions is the best way. Should they warn the bishop or inform the king? Shining a light on them and their treasonous intentions may be the best way to defeat them. Very scary situation.

If the PCs knew about those trying to overthrow the King they could certainly inform the Bishop of Grecotha or the King about it. But the PC's don't yet know about the plot to overthrow Kelson the Usurper. All the PC's know about is Willimite activity.

[revanne]

Honestly I think we have enough to deal with as it is.
