Sir Ewen wrote:Which leads me to conclude that Thilisa was most likely absent and found missing at daybreak, breakfast, or whatever this morning. Agreed?
Sir Ewen wrote:As for your first point, there is nothing to say that Thilisa/Camissa was not outside the castle at night, and certainly luring a lady outside the castle is a tad easier than breaking into the castle to carry her off. I'll only note that we attempted, unsuccessfully, to lure her out once. She might have gone out herself without luring, of course, but that would suggest an opportunistic abduction, no?
Sir Ewen wrote:The second is thornier, because we have the additional fact that he arrested Sirs Ewen and Baris whilst holding evidence of some sort.
Sir Ewen wrote:I for one would have waited a bit longer, lest the funeral baked meats coldly furnish forth the marriage tables.
Matt wrote:Just on the basis of the anger in his voice, it would seem there is some evidence. Declaen Caldeth, by reputation and by your own observation, does not fly off the handle like that.

Imarë wrote:If it were the grooms family, they would have waited until after the wedding (a death or kidnapping in the family could bring the marriage into question at this time).
Imarë wrote:The only person, to our current knowledge, that has acted differently recently is Sir Rollard.
Imarë wrote:It could be that Sir Ewen, being the only non-Kaldoric subject or not familiar to the Earl, is the only one he feels would have done something like this.
Imarë wrote:My usual candidate is unlikely because he would wait until the decision of husband has been made (and then go after the Earl himself...)
Sir Ewen wrote:I know speculation seems futile given so many possibilities, but it helps me to group the various scenarios. For instance, what if thirty seconds into next session we learn that Camissa is the daughter missing? Well, then, we wasted time on numerous Thilisa scenarios here, but also have formulated here some ideas about who might benefit from snatching Camissa, and whether we think it more likely she's captive somewhere or dead. Teddy and I won't have much time to plead our case before being frogmarched to the dungeon, so I appreciate you bearing with me and testing the internal logic of some of these scenarios.

Sir Ewen wrote:I found Sir Rollard to evolve in his attitude toward Ewen from rueful but polite to a touch bitter to (now) openly hostile. The transformation is subtle, gradual, but striking in retrospect, and quite artfully depicted, BTW.
