It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Keyleth, a half-elf druid . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, Being the adventurers they are, they took it upon themselves to leap out into the forest of the Vesper Timberland, found and hunted down this hydra, fought it, and upon slaying it discovered that there was another group also hunting this hydra. An actually sanctioned group, and hunting this hydra is considered illegal in Vasselheim unless you had actually been contracted to do so.
DM: "There are different people assigned to investigate. We were part of the team that was sent as part of the investigation raid on the Velvet Cabaret."
Player: It's not a group of people. It's just, "you're an investigator today" kind of thing?
DM: "That's part of what we do as Bastions, aye."
Player: Gotcha. Is there anyone else that is part of the investigation team that you think would be good to talk to?
DM: "They wouldn't have any more information than we do, no."
Player: Can I do an insight check on him?
DM: Yeah, go for it.
Player: 23.
DM: He seems forthright enough. He seems impatient and a little flustered with the fact that you've been pushing these questions to him. But he doesn't seem to be covering anything necessarily.
