HEIST UPDATE

Just when I thought we maybe wouldn't need it. [That part's in a muttered tone, so Claudia probably didn't mean to broadcast it.]

Wrinkle in the plan, guys, Beatrice moved the amulet. She made a really big deal about storing it under guard in the top of her tower, so my guess is it's anywhere but the tower. We don't have much time to work on this. Thoughts?

My first one, frankly, is 'tase the bejeezus out of her and loot her while she's unconscious,' but there's no guarantee that would turn up clues.

That or for a cloudy day.

Don't think we're gettin' a lot of those, with the magic going nuts everywhere.

[claudiometer]

What, not even any hope for a dramatically convenient thunderstorm?

I'm not going to bank on the magic reacting to me, sister.

[He sounds amused.]

One of the Forest Folk infiltrators maybe, sneaking in to steal back their heritage, maybe. But not me.

I'm just saying, you never know.

In any case, see what you can find out, let me know if it's nothing, and we can go from there.
