Another day, another body
Dagnir: *runs out of an alley like his tail's on fire, and looks back and forth before seeing Nuala being harassed by a raven by a salescart. Makes a decision and strides over to get her attention*
Kak: Oh, it's you again. Go away, pussy.
Dagnir: *no time for this* MROWL *grabs Nuala's skirt with a paw*
Nuala: *looks down at Dagnir and quickly wraps up her transaction with the salesman* What is it, puss?
Dagnir: *annoyed hiss at the name, and pulls again*
Nuala: *well it's either that or 'cat' until she learns your name. She sighs and follows after*
Dagnir: *leads her through one of the more labrynth like sections of the back alleys*
Nuala: *begins to feel wary as they go deeper, and she looks up to see if Kak is following overhead* Where are you taking me? *said more as a rhetorical question; she doesn't expect the cat to answer*
Kak: Oh, you're not going to like what's coming up. *from above*
Nuala: *frowns, getting frustrated* What is it?
Dagnir: *gets them to the dead end, where Grindi's body is*
Nuala: *cries out in alarm and recoils as soon as she sees the body, covering her mouth and backing up. She doesn't have to check to know he's dead. Death has been her shadow too long for doubt.* Oh spirits.
Dagnir: *nods, has the first thing he needs, witnesses, and starts headbutting her back to get out, has to get her to the guardhouse*
Kak: That's one dead dwarf. *circles down and lights beside it* How do you think dwarf eyes taste?
Dagnir: HISS
Nuala: Don't touch it!
Kak: *flies back a bit* Fine! Fine! Touchy pusspuss.
Kak: *lights onto Nuala's shoulder* Well, let's get out of here. If we can't eat it, what's the point?
Dagnir: *rubss up and down against Nuala's leg to try and get her to follow him*
Nuala: It's death. There is no point. *grim* We've got to get out of here. Come on. *she sets off back in the direction she came, letting Dagnir take point so she won't get lost in the criss-crossing alleys*
Dagnir: *leading her right to the guardhouse*
Nuala: *hesitates, because the guardhouse is crawling with Rohirrim, but as long as they don't see the tattoos on her arms they might not recognize her for a Dunlender. She goes in and glances around anxiously.*
Dagnir: *goes to the human he knows - Theo*
Theo: *on break, talking with his shiftmates when Dagnir leaps at him from a desk* Gah!
Dagnir: MROWL mrowwlll mrowl *bites his shoulder and hops down, doing the 'follow me!' face*
Theo: For Bema's sake, are you trying to be weird lately or is it just something in the air? *rubs his shoulder and tries to grab Dagnir, being led to Nuala*
Nuala: *tenses up and pulls her sleeves down as he approaches*
Theo: What is it, Dagnir?
Dagnir: *rubs up against her legs*
Theo: Did my cat kidnap you?
Nuala: *blinks* He's your cat? *then she shakes her head, because that's not really important right now* I need to speak to someone. I found a body.
Theo: What kind? *frowns* I'll take you to the captain
Some Rohirric guards: *much better at spotting Dunlenders than Theoden and talking amongst themselves*
Nuala: I'm not sure. *getting nervous, noticing the Rohirrim talking quietly and not caring to take a guess as to the subject* He was small. I think he was a dwarf. I've never seen one before, but I've heard stories... *suddenly remembering what Kak said* Yes! A dwarf.
Theo: Come with me. *takes her with him* And go HOME, Dagnir.
Dagnir: Mrooowl! *walks along behind them, not giving a damn*
Kak: Oh, it's you again. Go away, pussy.
Dagnir: *no time for this* MROWL *grabs Nuala's skirt with a paw*
