Option 1 or 2? (Alternate answers welcome.)
Suspicious individual...
Angelo looks at Lena while offering his right hand to her. "We shouldn't keep them waiting. Lead the way." Lena smiles softly, taking his hand gently. "Right." Along their path, he is waved to by many of the residents, some of which bow or curtsy instead. She looks gently at him with a warm smile. "They love you here, huh?" He nods slightly, making sure to wave and/or smile to those that react to him. "I helped them out of a perilous situation when I first met them. Back then, this place was just a speck on the map. Who would have thought they would make such a grandiose place in such a short amount of time."
She playfully smirks. "You aren't referring to the phallic building we were just in, right?" He looks off to the side. "I don't know why she modeled that building after my dick." She giggles while squeezing his hand gently. "Maybe because it's so intoxicating." He swallows, his cheeks turn a little red. She leans gently against him. "So cute..." She whispers too softly for him to hear. He turns to look at her. "What was that?" She shakes her head. "Nothing. Nothing at all, Angelo."
They walk through the marketplace before turning to walk down an alley. "Are we almost there?" He asks while looking around at the buildings. Sadly, there wasn't anything to make these buildings stand out except for their location near the marketplace. She gently licks her upper lip. "The door should be..." She presses her hand against a wall. He watches her as her hand moves slowly along the wall before sinking into it. "Ah! Here it is." There is a soft click heard as she turns her wrist then walks through the wall.
Although disconcerting, he follows her through it. Once inside, he sees Dubala punching a goblin tied to a chair with a sack over his head in the gut. "I can see the taint of Bhaal around you. Tell us what we want to know, or we'll resort to a more direct approach." Jasmine is mixing a few vials of chemicals together. "I'm just about done with my potion of enthrallment." The goblin coughs, blood soaking the sack where his mouth is. "I know not of what you ask. Your threats mean nothing to me Drow."
Angelo blinks hearing the goblin's voice. He wasn't one hundred percent sure, but it sounded like Klas, Fenvi's brother and Slyka's Head Merchant. The red suit he was wearing looked like Klas's too. "Is that Klas? Why do you suspect him of being affiliated with Bhaal?" Before Dubala could react, Klas gasps turning his head in Angelo's direction. "Master Angelo! Please save me from these dangerous women! They've been using me as a punching bag and demand I confess to crimes I didn't commit!"
Dubala backhands Klas, sending him and the chair to the ground. "Shut up! That isn't what I asked of you." Klas whimpers. Lena looks at Angelo's hand. "You're squeezing a little too hard, Angelo." Angelo's grip instantly loosens as he glances at their hands. "Oh. Sorry about that." He looks at Klas then to Dubala. "I asked you a question." Dubala tilts her head slightly to the right while placing her right hand on her hip. "The one you call Klas is corrupted by Bhaal. Jasmine and I can see Bhaal's influence all around him because of Selene's blessing. She's the Goddess our family worships."
He looks at Klas then at Dubala. "I believe you, but I don't see anything. I can't turn him in to Slyka without any proof." Klas sighs heavily. "Isn't it innocent until proven guilty? I don't want to go to prison because of two Drows suspicions!" Jasmine gently rotates a vial in her hand, the liquid within changes from yellow to white then to purple. "We don't have it yet. He'll sing like a bird once I administer this potion." He shakes his head. "It could be a hypnotic **** that'll make me say anything you want! What kind of proof is that?"
Angelo tilts his head slightly as he casts Observe on the vial.
Observe:
Vial of Truth's Tourette. This substance makes it impossible to tell a lie while compelling those afflicted to say what is on their mind at any given moment for 12 hours. Material: Enchanted Crystal Vial, Water, Ground Riveting Root, Essense of Genuine Leaf, and Liquified Elicit Grass. 1/1 Durability.
Warning: You may hear things you don't want to hear!
He lifts a brow. "Vial of Truth's Tourette? I would say that is compelling evidence." Jasmine gasps. "I'm impressed. Not many people know what this concoction is called." Lena leans gently against Angelo. "Wouldn't it be wiser to use it in front of Slyka?" Dubala shakes her head. "No, this is a servant of Bhaal we're talking about here. There are far too many unknowns here. We don't know how many allies he has or where they are. An organization like that is bound to kill captured members to keep information from leaking."
Klas whimpers then says meekly. "Speaking of leaking..." Angelo sighs, having seen too many scenes like this in movies and video games to even need to look to know what had happened. He casts Clean on Klas. - 5 Mp "I'll take care of it." This cleans him completely since his area is reduced while seated. Angelo uses a mental command to send the contents collected to the trash bin. Klas breathes a sigh of relief. "Thanks, Master Angelo. That was embarrassing." Dubala pulls Klas's chair up with him while looking at Jasmine. "Come on sis. Let's get this over with."
Klas tilts his head slightly. "Yes, give me that Vial of Truth or whatever it's called. I look forward to this being over." Angelo lifts a brow upon hearing Klas say that. He had yet to use Observe on Klas, but if Bhaal was truly protecting Klas would he even be able to see what was needed? As Jasmine approached Klas, Dubala took the sack from Klas's head. Klas appeared unharmed as he opened his mouth for Jasmine. Is Klas guilty or not? If so, will the vial work as intended? Or will other means need to be taken?
