Robin hesitates, a moment, but at a nod from Lady Nightshade, he explains.  "yes, Mistress?"<br/><br/>"Ithi'ka" Nightshade supplies, succinctly<br/><br/>"Yes, Mistress Ithi'ka.  I was working in Mistress Kathia's Dungeon... cleaning, and restocking it as ordered, and then I moved into this one... it's our general Dungeon.  Of course I immediately noticed the dead man on the floor.  I stopped for a moment, just to be certain, then I suppose I paniced somewhat... I ran downstairs to find help... I must have shooted something about the dead man, then I think I may have fainted."<br/><br/>He sounds flustered but he continues.  "When I woke, I was being given a drink, and I went home for a few hours.  When I returned an hour ago, Mistress Kathia... well, she told me I was to watch the room here, to make certain no one entered except her or Lady Nightshade.  No one has."<br/><br/>His light voice sounds eager to please, if a little whiny.<br/><br/>As she listens, Ithi'ka looks carefully around the room.  There isn't much.  The room seems nearly unused recently.  The only thing that seems out of place is the body itself.  It shows the real anomaly.  The man appears to have had his neck broken... by a pair of extremely strong hands.  The fingers have left an impression, and though the grip seems to be small, they've left groves in his flesh.  It reminds Ithi'ka of something.  ((Knowledge Religion or Planes check, with a bonus +5 from her background.))<br/><br/>Finally, as she examines the rest of the man's body, she finds a small scrap of cloth, torn off in the mans hand.  It's a bit of lace, black in color.
