(Sibern, you naughty dog! 'They embraced.', yeah...sure.)

"Captain, someone should go find those Investigators.", Garulf's right hand, Opalf, commented.

They had been called moments before dawn to check a murder report on the docks and were surprised by the new corpse. This was someone the city watch knew well as one of the henchmen of the Servant, strangely he had his chest ripped apart,  probably with brute strength and a powerful cutting object, missing the heart, lungs and a few other internal organs.

"This certainly seem like one of those kills...", Garulf commented,  nervously shifting his weight betweem legs. He had managed to keep the corpse from common knowledge as the last thing the city needed was another body.

"You said that there was a witness? Take me to him.", This is strange...Too strange. Opalf led the Captain to the fisherman who witnessed the attack, the man had a big cut on his forehead due to the fact he had hit his head pretty hard on the floor.

"Sir, I'd like you to tell me what you saw.", Garulf managed to keep his authoritarian tone, luckily.

"Yesser, I was here last night...Sleeping amongst the fish, since me wife kicked me out of the house for spending my savings on gambles. She was very disappointed with me, so she asked...better yet, demanded me to get out of the house until I retrieve...", the fisherman started telling the story, but was interrupted by Garulf.

"Skip to the encounter, fisher. I have a busy schedule.", he growled.

"Sorry, ser. Well, I woke up in the middle of the night, because I had a nightmare, so I decided to step out for fresh air. After half an hout or so, I came back and found that...And found the...", the fisherman seemed to scare to say what he wanted. It was a foolish thing to think and it would be even more foolish to share his delusions with others such as the Captain of the guards.

"Spill the fuck out.", Opalf said, harshly.

"The Pale Man, sir. I saw him...A bit hairy, tall and muscular but slender.", the man was clearly disturbed as he was shaking each time he opened his mouth, whether to speak or take a long breathe, "And pale. White as snow and perhaps some grey hair? He seemed to have claws or some kind of weapon... I'm not sure. What I am sure is that the piercing look of his different-reddish-brownish eyes gave me could freeze anyone to death.", the last part seemed to make the fisherman proud of himself, forgetting the fact that he inteded to run and he only survived because he wasn't the thing's target.

"I see...", ''Whatever that was, this man clearly invented it...perhaps he was the one who killed the bandit. Could you imagine that? 'Fisherman had enough with the thugs extorsion and outpowered the enemy with his net-throwing abilities.' Pff, pathetic., Garulf seemed to be lost within his own thoughts, Well, I know someone who's going to be overpowered this night.''

"Thank you for your help, sir. You may leave.", the Captain finally said when he realized the confused look on the man's face,'' I have an important meeting in a few hours. Deadly important.''
