~Several citizens were witness to the intital darkness casting as well as the shop keeper Bron, the darkness was cast previously before a man Edward Lorkus was speaking to a hin almost as if she were a slave, when the darkness was cast those witness would have heard the clash of steel on armour coming from it before seeing the black clad Lorkus emerge unarmed shouting for the guards with this Edward was seen running around the city continiously screaming for guards until reaching the Guard on duty outside of the Redmist City Hall building was witness to a screaming man dressed in full blackend armour, known to be Edward Lorkus screaming for the guards assistance, the guard would have noted the several large dents in his armour obviously made from a rather large sword before the magical darkness cosumed him, it is said when the darkness ceased Edwards corpse was lying on the floor, it is noted that several adventurers were seen also seemingly aiding Edward one of which wearing a full Red Leather Suit as well as the hin Edward was previously speaking with. Those gathered around the corpse speak of the warrior in red seeming to struggle with something from around the hins neck~

// Would apperciate it if those involved would add some here too of what they saw etc.

She leans against the merchants wagon eating an apple, while observes Edward and a female Halfling chatting. His speech about pain and obedience made her chuckle a couple of times… and the way the Halfling seemed to struggle against it was amusing her a lot.

After a few minutes observing the two, there were no doubts that the Halfling seemed to be somehow under his influence… He looks at Varna and with a grin smile says:”See how pain can teach Varna…” he seemed very satisfied with his accomplishment.
She just grins at his words and returns her attention at the Halfling who seemed uncomfortable with the situation.

”I hate you” these words which came from the hin made her almost choke with the small piece of apple she had in her mouth. She looked surprised at Edward and then the Halfling, and chuckles to herself.
A few moments later out of nowhere everything around them turns black, not even the darkest of nights could be compared to it.

“What the hell…” she ranted while trying to orientate herself in the middle of such blackness…
She couldn’t see anything, but sounds of metal and screams echoed through the streets… “Guards!” Edward yelling for the guards and for help was the last thing she heard, before the total darkness started to disappear.

Around her, a lot of scared populace and confused guards walking around. Only the hin was there, no sign of Edward, besides some blood spots on the ground…
”Where the hell did he go? What happened?” Ah’sali shouted looking around still confused from the entire strange event.

She points at the blood on the ground and starts to follow it with Ah’sali. After some minutes walking around the city following some stains and comments made by the scared folk, they find themselves looking at a blood pool on the ground, right in front of the City Hall… The trail ended there, and the guard on duty seemed somehow disoriented.

She starts to talk with the man about what he had witnessed. A few minutes later she approaches Ah’sali with a frustrated expression on her face “He saw Edward running and yelling for help, and then total blackness.” She comments while frowns “then once the darkness ended, he saw his corpse” she points at the blood on the ground. “Seems that some moments later someone took him to the temple. That’s all the guard knows” she ends shrugging.

”Lets just leave, nothing for us here” she looks around one last time and makes her way to the Inn observing the scared folk who witnessed the event.
