Supposed Murderer

Described as being a hooded man dressed completely in black. Appearing to be tall; around six feet high, with a 'stocky' build.  

 

Mr. Edmund, the witness, said that around late Dusk, he saw Ancot being stabbed in the chest, then the murderer fleeing the scene as soon as he realized he was spotted. The victim had a large wound to the chest to match this description, and it ultimately took the Victim's life.

  The victim's wife, Martha, says that her husband was running errands that evening, and, when it seemed to be taking longer than usual, she went out looking for him, where both she and her brother Edmund, found the scene. 

  Martha, however, also claims that Ancot was acting strangely the morning of his murder, saying that "He kept looking out the window.. like he was expecting someone to show up and he claimed he had to go off on some errands.. before I could say anything he was gone."

However, following the discovery of the scene, Edmund  went looking for the Watch, whereupon he found Barlinda, who went to the scene with them, then brought Nessya, followed by Mundhil who arrived shortly after, after hearing what had happened.

The trio dealt with the scene and the body of the man, and this is the report that follows the incident.
