The investigation (the writing is on the wall)

[Susofrick]

Just a little something. Figures are Mithril, ruin is Javis.









First it was like this, but then I wanted to add stuff :

[FredG]

At least show us the writing.

He's not dead anyway, there's no bucket.

[Graeme]

An elegantly dressed gentleman with an impeccably groomed moustache... Must be a detective.

Those Mithril figures are very nice, and very nicely painted. And putting them in the ruined alleyway makes for an intriguing scene.

Now the question: Is the man on the ground a murder victim who has written the culprit's name in his own blood? Or a Tagger who has been suffocated by the fumes of his own paint?

[sberry]

I turn on my computer and the first thing I see in the morning is a murder - terrible, just terrible!
But wait .... the investigation is still under way, so perhaps it turns out it was no murder at all ...

[Susofrick]

Thanks! Okay, one clue: it wasn't a woman called Rachel!

[Graeme]

Cave Canem!

Perhaps I was wrong about the detective, maybe he's not a Medievel Hercule, maybe he's a Medievel Sherlock.

[FredG]

Hang on!

There's villainy afoot.

Someone has been tampering with the evidence.

The "body" has been moved.

[Ochoin]

Either the victim spoke German (unlikely) & was killed in revenge (eg "Rache = revenge) or (much more likely), he was a marathon runner who expired at the 20 kilometer mark of the *race* but was so tired he couldn't spell it correctly. Those of us who are long distance runners* will appreciate this.

* I ran my standard 5kms yesterday (hilly) for a creditable 27:30. And at the end I could still spell "race".

It took me longer but I could spell as well

FredG finds what he believes to be a vital clue.



Ponders into the meaning of this cryptic cypher

You're a runner? I've run nearly every day since I was 7. And I do believe in the benefits...the Quick and the Dead.

[Graeme]

Either the victim spoke German

Or perhaps Medievel English?

But maybe I've been thrown off the scent, and I'm barking up the wrong tree.

If I'm right, I have to ask was it a model one or the real one? Both equal possibilities at Gunnar's place.

What do we see ? What do we know ?
An investigation.
A wooden wall with red written RACHE on it.
A men with something in red on his clothes. Struggling at the floor.
Two cleric men. From Mithril. One pray something from a book to the man at the floor.

Mithril, you can not see it.
An indication to read RACHE backward. EHCAR. Make no sense. Is it a shortening?
Is EHCAR for:
E- eat, H- hot, C-chili, A-all, R-red ?
That explain the struggling man at the floor, with red chili on his clothes. One hand move to his stomach. He sweat !
The cleric fond him read, Ochion wrote: (eg "Rache = revenge) at the wooden wall.
The short investigation came to the solution that
one cleric open the best seller book of all the time.
And pray:

Is this a cold case? I don't see the solution of this case?
