Posts from Mafia 104. Alrion Auto-translated

I understand the townspeople's suspicions about me. Recent events in the city have thrown me off balance, and I can hardly say anything sensible right now.
I won't suggest anyone for execution, so it doesn't turn out like with Thur.

Your Majesty, could you be involved with the criminals?

How do you imagine that? I am already the king, I have the power in my hands, and I don't need anything else.

The mafia has a redirect; who in their right mind would change it to a block?

It seems they changed it on the first night, since today's vote was from the town, not from them.

Yesterday, protection; today, the death of the killer (if we go by the version that most people believe). Two coincidences in a row, and such unlikely ones at that.

NNV - for now, I see this as the most reasonable solution...

Unfortunately, I have nothing to add to what has been said.
So far, analyzing the clues has not yielded any results, but I promise to continue the search tomorrow with a fresh mind

The day is over. No one was executed.

Over the past few days, the city guard has been inspecting and questioning all strangers with great suspicion and responsibility. For this reason, Ormhild had to spend the entire night under the watchful eye of the guards.
Unlike commoners and visiting Barbarians, King Elmer II spent tonight in good company.
Ardas Ghostdrain paid for his inaction and was killed. Who could have overcome such a legendary warrior? According to local myths and legends, only a warrior of the flaming rose can do it.

Alive:
King Elmer II
Princess Narfina
Sir Erseyd
Navirius
Lady Aravella
Selenide
Gorr
Ophelia
Tizetria
Amael
Aris Ectabon
Ormhild

Off the top of my head, reading about roses made me think of Lady Aravella, but her biography mentions blue roses:

The House of Blue Roses is the luxurious estate of the Aravella family.

A search for "blazing rose" first leads to a link about the religious-knightly Order of the Blazing Rose from the Witcher universe, and the most religious among us is Ophelia:

Gavellus is a revered god in the world of the past, the patron of warriors and commanders. In times of despair, there are not many of his followers left, but there are those whose faith has only grown stronger due to the difficulties they have faced.
Ophelia arrived in Alrion to preach the teachings of her god. And although she was not very warmly received at her previous stop, in the city of Gram, Ophelia does not lose faith.

But this is all too simple. Right now, there is no way to delve deeper.
It is interesting that it was just a murder; maybe yesterday, the maniac simply encountered a natural defense?

Another murder. Or am I mistaken, and today's killer wasn't a maniac? Where are the horrifying, bloody details? And I only know one great warrior from the city – a sharpshooter. It's a pity I didn't have time to tell him about Gavellus :(
The king was finally guarded, and the guards finally started doing their direct duties.
Ormhild was sitting under the castle.
Not much news.
I'll try to look for the flaming rose, but the results of my previous attempts aren't very encouraging.

Ardas Ghostdrain was, as far as I understand, one of the most despicable individuals. The absence of a motive for the serial killer is interesting. A block? Strange, Ormhild didn't seem like a serial killer to me, nor did she seem particularly negative, especially considering that she defended Tyur, even before everyone collectively decided to execute him. I would pay closer attention to those who, on the first day, quickly voted against Tyur without making any real attempt to understand the situation or persistently ignoring his defense. Moreover, I would focus on those who voted after Rukoreza, because from that moment on, Tyur was clearly identified as a real candidate for execution, and some quickly added their votes, specifically Navirius and Aris. I also didn't like Sir Gor's behavior that day. Your Majesty, I am glad that nothing disturbed you tonight, but I have certain concerns related to the fact that, in my opinion, not all of your officers are equally loyal to you... And first and foremost, I mean Navirius. I didn't like his inertia and lack of interest in what was happening in recent days. In addition, there is some evidence suggesting that he may be directly involved in the murder of Ardas Ghostdrain, namely: Order of the Blazing Rose - Witcher - Monster Hunter - Navirius In this regard, I propose summoning him for a personal audience in the palace and placing him under arrest until the circumstances are clarified. If everything is as I think, then Navirius must be executed for participating in the conspiracy and murder.

mmmm...

I tried to delve deeper into the topic of lamentations:

Quote:
Message from Lamentation
The term "lamentations" (in the plural) refers to musical compositions based on the Lamentations of Jeremiah from the 16th to the 21st centuries.

Quote:
Message from Lamentations of Jeremiah
In the Jewish canon, Lamentations is usually found in the section of Hagiographa, or Writings, which also includes the books Song of Songs, Ruth, Ecclesiastes, and Esther – five scrolls collected under the common title Megillot (Scrolls).

Quote:
Message from Ormhild
She hunts for ancient scrolls revealing the secrets and gaps of the past.
For now, that's all I've found. But I don't really like this explanation.

considering the block and the fact that Man killed Hasumi the very next night.
execute Ormhild

although it would be good to find this knight of the Blazing Rose as well.

I think my role is clear to everyone who reads carefully...

Order of the Flaming Rose - Witcher - monster hunter - Navirius

However, this seems a bit too simple. Could this be a fake clue from Mafia 4?
Although, I think they would have used it earlier... Question for the GM: if Mafia 4 uses their ultimate ability, but the kill is somehow prevented, does the ultimate ability remain?

No.

Okay, then I’ll leave my vote for Navirius, unless a better solution is found.

I think we should send Ormhild to the laboratory. Linking the clue to Navirius is too vague. Although we can't read the minds of the journalists, so who knows? Just kidding, of course. We can. But that would be impolite. There's another important question: should we execute the lone wolf now? If the assumption about the ambush of the conspirators is correct, and the assumption about Ardas's role is also correct, we might be in trouble.
