Captain Naran nodded his head as he drummed the fingers of his off hand on the table.<strong>"Certainly it seems that the man in question had some foreknowledge of your... condition.  Silver bolts aren't exactly hard to come by, but they aren't the kind of thing you'd just carry around unless you were expecting that you might need them.  I do agree that it seems that the rogue, had at least thought he might have to use them.  Given the light of the situation, and the fact that you're a trusted merchant in our city in good standing with the Trade Union, I'm going to write this down as an obvious case of self defense."</strong><br/><br/>He wrote on a few different sheets of papers, and handed her one which bore his signature verifying that he'd made a field ruling of her innocence.  If a tribunal was called later to question her guilt in the matter, it wouldn't be a 'get out of jail free' pass, but it would go a long way to making her case.  More so however, it was what would matter to members of the Laelith Defenders for the most part, and since they were the law keepers of the city, it was all but good enough of a ruling.<strong> "You're free to go, though we may ask you a few questions about the situation in the future if that's ok.  Since you're a local however and not a transient, I'm not worried about having to find you if we need you.  You may borrow the cloak if you wish, just give it to any defender when you're done with it."</strong><br/><br/>He stood, signaling that the meeting was at an end, but then leaned across the table and said,<strong>"Though while I do truly believe you are innocent, I again have to ask you to leave this be.  I'm sorry your dwarven stubbornness urged you to continue, but just to set your mind at ease, we are continuing our investigation.  The murder of the dragonborne is still under investigation.  I'm not at liberty to tell you any more than that, but again suggest, especially for your own safety, that you let us handle it."</strong><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">I decided that she's a member of the trade union, as would be her father.  The involvement in that guild is up to you, but at the very least, you pay your monthly dues.</div></div>
