Magnus was relieved that Atisha had arrived prior to him. Waiting outside at night wasn't something he'd been looking forward to, both due to the part of town they were in and the risk of being spotted by one of the assassins. Thankfully, he wasn't alone for long, and he gave an audible breath of relief when she answered the door. Upon entering, he gave Atisha a quick greeting, but his attention was quickly caught by Anora and her new companion.<br/><br/>He raised an eyebrow at the newcomer's presence. A situation that was already complicated could've potentially become moreso with added presence. Still, someone else watching the group's back was appreciated. Since he'd come along with Anora, Magnus figured he already knew about what was going on. He still didn't quite trust either of the two, but he wasn't going to drive off potential help by being suspicious.<br/><br/>Once inside, Magnus tugged his hood down and reached into a pouch on his belt, answering Atisha's inquiry as he did so. "I make a living off smooth talking, so I can give it a shot. I'm more used to haggling than interrogating, but there's a first time for everything." A half-smile and a shrug accompanied the end of the second sentence, suggesting it was an attempt at lightening the situation. It was incredibly obvious, however, that the smile was forced and he was quite stressed. "Oh, and I managed to track down one of the others. You know, the one who fell over and died? He had some things on him." From the pouch, he produced another one of the amulets, the notebook, and the ring. "There might be something in here, maybe. Worth a look-over while we wait for him to join us."<br/><br/>The book was not very large, apparently just a simple pocket journal. Bound in leather, bearing a hand-stitched decoration matching the symbol on the amulets made of green thread. Not the best reproduction, but definitely enough to make it clear it belonged to the man whose corpse he grabbed it from and not one of his victims. It had a lock, obviously added after the journal was purchased. The leather strip was of a different colour than the rest of the book, and looked like it could be fairly easily cut into. Magnus didn't have anything sharp on him, so he didn't get a chance to take a peek on the trek back to the building.
