[Silhar]

"Just give me a knife and admire the playground. Or, you know, some of that primitive laser weapons would suit me well. Similiar to our long rifles, i suppose. If it also has a scope, then, heh, heh...", he answered, smiling darkly. On Rogue Trader he hailed from, nobody could beat him in lasguns. "I think those ones must plentiful around here... Even those men dressed in red carry it. No need to waste your time (and nerves) for teaching."

"Yet how can we be sure that they'll let us in the Great Library ? Inspection is the thing of great probability, too. I don't want any >>take that hood down, sir<< situations. And so you, I suppose.", The Eldar pondered. "And canteens are already full of shady people, are they not ? Just suggesting..."
Of course he didn't mention his strong sympathy for rotgut. Oh, the throat is so dry...

[Xander Morhaime]

Halsted glanced briefly to where he'd put his lasgun down before shaking his head. "Not a chance. They're precise and delicate weapons, wouldn't trust one of you with it," he stated firmly. "I can let you have the shotgun, I think it might be simple enough for you to get your mind around it..."

[Malek Deneith]

Laz shook his head - No on the canteen thing. You'd be a source of worse trouble there if they figure you out some way with all the potential thugs there. Plus our teams psyker here might have some tricks up her sleeve that might come handy when pulling out information... Anyway if entering the library turns to be problematic go check out missing Magos' living place, maby leave just Marcus checking the library if they allow in him and not you two. Use the inquistion badges only if necessary to avoid worse problems.

[Silhar]

"Understood, then...", gasped Silharriel. No drinking for now.

"A shotgun ? You mean that poor match of our shuriken weapons ?... Damn me. Precision is the one thing I specialize in. But if nothing better's around, so be it. How does it work ?, he asked, hesitating no more. At least that crude weapon... somehow... looked stylish. A bit.

[Xander Morhaime]

"It is a very precise weapon. It quite precisely turns a person's face to mush if you fire it point-blank," Halsted said with a chuckle. "We'll deal with training later... a more important matter first. Just in case, we should have some means of keeping in touch," the guardsman explained, then unhooked a micro-bead from his ear. "I don't suppose any of you have a spare one? The range isn't overwhelming, I suppose, just a kilometre in good conditions, but it's better than shouting in this place, right?"

[Marcus Constantine]

"So brothers, why don't you establish the rules and I in the mean time go out, check out how the locals dress themselves. I would also love to see the Great Library, but not as an inquisitor. I do not think that anyone needs to know that we were sent by the Inquisition. Not now. The word of our arrival will spread quickly. The enemy, whoever he is, must not know it."

[Passionario]

The psyker, who has been sitting curled up in a corner all this time, suddenly lifts her head and speaks:

"We don't have much time for this, I fear. Whatever evil has been claiming all those people, it's not hiding in canteens or lurking in a library. It's already here, in the streets, just waiting to pounce on the next victim."

Her body shudders momentarily.

"I could feel its presence as we made our way here. A terrible wrongness that threatened to engulf us all. Everyone who walks out there, from the lowliest servitor to the most heavily armed tech-guard, is in danger. So whatever we're planning to do, we'd better make it fast, before it realizes who we are... and moves in for the kill."

[Xander Morhaime]

"Yes, well, unless you can point us to wherever this evil is hiding - a street adress and room number would be handy - we're going to have to lower ourselves to looking for it ourselves. Or, alternatively, hoping that when it comes for us, we can follow it back to its lair," Halsted replied.

[Marcus Constantine]

Not waiting for a reply Marcus left. After some time he returns with a pack of clothes

"Brothers, blessed by the Dursus's light. I decided to venture out side and bought these. Now, they may not be the first quality but it should be enough for now" - Marcus said upon entering

"Unfortunately, I only have two full *suits*. I understand it is to Laz, who is the leader of our group to divide it umong us"

Marcus gives Laz two poor quality clothes.

[Xander Morhaime]

Halsted, while Marcus was gone, took to training the eldar in using a shotgun.

"It's really simple to use, you shouldn't have much trouble with it," he said, taking out a shell and using his knife to cut open the top and dispose of the shot and propellant charge. Then he picked up his shotgun. "Loading is dead simple, really. Press the catch release here," he pressed a stud in the side of the the shotgun's handle, "breaking" it open, "and load in the shells. And close like so," he demonstrated once more, quickly snapping the shotgun closed again and raising it to his shoulder and pulling the trigger, resulting in a little flash and a puff of smoke from the shell's igniter cap and left-over propellant. Then he snapped the weapon open once more. "Pull out the spent shells, discard, and load in new ones... mind, it has a bit of a kick to it, so try not to shoot out too many lighting fixtures when aiming for people's faces. Now... give it a try," the guardsman said, passing the shotgun and the defused shell to the eldar.

[Silhar]

"Simple thing indeed.", he said, picking the weapon. "I shall be in need for familiarizing myself with that kind of weaponry, which shall take some time, I suppose.", saying this, The Outcast grabbed the weapon, "broke" the weapon in two, loaded it with a defused shell and pulled the trigger, aiming at the wall. There was just a silent click, for all the quicksilver was already burnt away from the detonating cap and there was no gunpowder inside the shell. Then, the Alien broke it again and the shell jumped away to the ground with a silent chime.
"Hardly a challenge. I must check it with proper ammunition now, to accustom myself with the recoil. You do not want me flying around the battlefield, is it right ?", he admitted, picking it up.

"Then, what are we going to do now ? Miss, can you precise the source of this... wickedness ?", Eldar asked, balancing the weapon in his hands for a while and then laying down the shotgun on the table. Then he sat on a bed and finished eating a corpse-starch bar.

[Malek Deneith]

Laz took the suits Marcus brought and immidietly threw one in direction of the eldar
- Hey pointy-ears, catch! This should cover you somwheat - he turned then to Halsted and threw the second one in his direction - And the second one goes to you - as you said your military uniform would probably stand out. The rest of us will have to manage with current clothes

He pondered for a moment then continued - So, since no-one seemed to have any major objection I propose we go with the split-up plan. That is: me and Pass go to check out canteens, while Halsted, Marcus and... Silhar? will go to the Library and either all three investigate there, or MArcus will investigate there while the other two check the missing Magos' home

[Xander Morhaime]

"Suppose we should tone down our armament for this outing as well? Going around dressed in these with lasguns and shotguns and whatnot might stand out as well," Halsted pointed out, catching the clothes and changing into them without much delay or fuss.

[Marcus Constantine]

"I will just take the revolver, that is all is needed. I do not know if visiting library might be a good idea for an Eldar. Such libraries are unique pearls and Adeptus Mechanicus surely will not allow for anyone bringing guns (which I surely leave to the security guards upon entering the Library) and certainly they would start asking questions. At least this is a thing I would do. I do not want to know what would happen if an Eldar tried to enter their place of holy knowledge." - Marcus said

"Than again, I might be wrong. I am only a humble servant of the Emperor and I surely make mistakes."

[Silhar]

Silharriel grabbed the suit and made use of it in the blink of an eye. "That's what I said before, Marcus. They'll surely want us to show faces and I probably will get shot right away. Or maybe even sooner if we shall be armed, yes. Seems like we'll have to check that... Magos's... place, while you will be investigating the Library.", he pointed out.
