Farmer's Market Burns Down

[Atmosphere]

The scruffy young man actually does the burying himself, where permitted, mentioning something about needing to keep his job despite apparently doing the work for free.

The beggar is left with a warm crockery pot of stewed cabbage and turnips.

The beggar smiles with a big, one tooth, grin. He takes the stew and makes of mess of himself as he quickly tries to chew it down.

The scruffy young man is thanked by those in mourning. He gets nice and dirty as he digs graves and places the bodies into the ground.

"Who ordered an attack on farmers market!" "What nonsense is this!" Clive snarls back. "Surely the Imperceptor would not order such meaningless slaughter!"

Responded through private message

During the following few days, a tall, compassionate looking woman with greyish blonde hair, dressed in her traditional Blue dress keeps an eye on the local markets around Sestra, reassuring the farmers and others there that they are protected, and that the acts committed by the black hand prove their cowardly nature. Attacking innocents to promote fear instead of attacking their guardians, whom they obviously fear themselves.

As the days pass, Sestra's local markets become especially safe by your protection. You capture two young thieves who were stealing grain to help feed their family. They were let go after a few nights in jail.

The priests of Kelemvor offer their aid to the families of those massacred, and also arrange funeral services for the departed.

Somewhere deep within a long aged crypt a single mummified skeleton in priestly vestments pens within a book various names, speaking a single sentence.

"One step closer to the end of all things..."

The priests are most welcomed. They help the scruffy young man dig graves. The Kelemvorites then preform any burial rights they wish. They are thanked.

Somewhere an evil sorcerer, with a great talent for divination, tingles in his naughty areas as the mummified skeleton speaks.

Swinging his arm back and forth over the graves he repeats his prayer over each one making sure that all those that lost their lives are protected by the newly consecrated graveyard.
Sadly he looks around, his work done he grips the haft of his axe and strides of in the direction of the city and vows to avenge this massacre.

The scene being mostly humans, they are unsure how to respond to the prayers of dwarven gods. A small child approaches the dwarf with curiosity and smiles, trying to tug Kharn's beard before he leaves. The child giggles, this being the first time he has ever seen a dwarf.

[Sir Kharn]

Kharn looks down on the giggling child, lets him tug his beard a few times then gently ruffles his hair, "Here boy, take a few stags and get back to yer mother". He pauses a few moments and smiles, reminded why he chose to protect this land and all those within.

[Intrepid42]

Glyir is mindful of the fear likely to be speading among the farming communities, and the Skullcleaver's commitment to Sestra.

He spends time patrolling the town in full battle gear, and gives word that his brothers should do the same.
