Re: In Search of a Son
The door is unlocked, and in turn, Durnic pulls the door open easily. There are no noises throughout the house as far as the blacksmith is concerned. Breathing through his cloak, there is still a stink, like rotting flesh. Something is obviously amiss here.

Re: In Search of a Son
Through his cloak he calls out, "Daniel?!" He remains in the doorway, unwilling to move in further. He shouts for his son several more times and then changes to calling for other members of the family that live here. "Hello?! Anyone?!"

Re: In Search of a Son
Simply, there is no answer. Durnic looks around, spotting Egat seated, but not saying anything. He has not moved from what the blacksmith can tell, since he entered the house.

Re: In Search of a Son
Durnic back up out of the house, "Damn it." He closes the door and then takes a deep breath of fresh air. "Daniel better be alright, cause I'm going to beat that kid when I find him." He shakes his head and heads off to the Marshal's office to report what he's found immediately.

Re: In Search of a Son
Durnic shuts the door and backs away. He turns with a grunt, angry, then spots a figure move through the darkness toward him. In a few moments, he identifies the man through the darkness, it is Dal.

Re: In Search of a Son
Dal spots the figure of the blacksmith through the few lights on the street. 'œDurnic' he shouts as he continues to run. The young man is out of breath and stops a few paces in front of Durnic.
'œThere's' he starts and then leans over taking a few deep breaths, 'œsomething'. He proceeds speaking one or two words at a time as he tries to get his breath back. 'œhappening' he finishes.
He leans back up with his hands on his back trying to recover from the short sprint. 'œMarshal... got weapons... attacked him... Kyger...'

Re: In Search of a Son
Durnic is noding about the first half of the statements, "Yes there is something happen. Egat and his family are dead, plague I gather." He then grabs Dal's shoulder and steadies him. "Breath man, breath. I have no idea what you are saying. Who is attacking who?" Durnic sets his jaw and steels his eyes. I'm never going to find Daneil.

Re: In Search of a Son
Dal leans back and finally catches his breath, 'œMarshal said we should gather. He was hurt pretty bad. He said something attacked him at the Kyger estate. I didn't stick around to find out. He might have been infected with that disease, he was bleeding pretty bad and could've turned into one of those corpses at any moment.'
He thinks for a moment then asks, 'œWhat are you doing out here?'

Re: In Search of a Son
Durnic pulls the hammer out of his pants (oh yeah baby) and taps it on his one hand. "I'm looking for my boy Daniel. Have you seen him?" He starts moving before the answer is given, making his way to the Marshal's place.

Re: In Search of a Son
Dal turns and lets Durnic walk a few paces before shouting, 'œNope, ain't seen Danny. But the marshal ain't over there. He was beaten up pretty bad and left his office. I think he was headin' over to the Inn.'
