Unlike Elrina, Alaria reacted to what she saw with more composure. Considering the monsters that inhabit the sewers, she had expected something similar. However, it seemed that humans were involved in this murder. Monsters usually don't dismember or mutilate their victims. Perhaps someone was trying to pass off their crime as the result of a monster attack? The Tanarrian didn't know the answer to this question. She wasn't even sure what the victim was doing in this place, considering that she was unlikely to be a member of the league.
"This doesn't look like the work of the local monsters," the inquisitor concluded. "Everything suggests that the body was deliberately mutilated, as if the killer was trying to hide the victim's identity. Nevertheless, he didn't try to hide the corpse itself. It's all very strange. Perhaps if we find out more about the victim, things will become clearer. Considering that the only clue we have is the jewelry, I suggest we go to "Gracia."
Can we roughly estimate how strong a person had to be (or what kind of tools they would have used) to mutilate the remains in this way? And can Alaria try to remember if there are any cults (or something similar) that are known for such practices?
