FIFTH INVESTIGATION

[faentasy]

INVESTIGATION V

After a party with many festivities and particularly eye catching attractions, many will have retired for the night before sleep takes them. It's a blessing even if this is routine by now, because after everything you've been through, dying from frostbite would be an anti-climatic way to go.

By the time you wake the sun is fully in the sky, it's light serving as your guide for the events that happened the night before.

The time is 8:00 AM.

((OOC NOTE: Investigation is open until 10PM EST.))

[faentasy]

[The hole does not look like it was from wear and tear. It's fairly small in size, although the edges do look frayed somewhat.

There's nothing too special about her position in particular, but her limbs are just kind of splayed there, with her arms spread slightly to her sides but not in any kind of organized way or anything. The stab wound in the chest is definitely the most striking, but since McGillis also moved her body like that, he would also notice there's an equivalent wound in her back as well, even if her back is covered with a lot of drying and clotted blood.

There's also a large gash on her left arm. The rest of it just seems to be small nicks and cuts all over her body.]

[vogelfrei]

[ One last hole question, then! Is it punctual or more like a small gash?

ANYWAY, Morgan. It seems like she was stabbed straight through the chest then. Is there a difference between the wound at the front and the one at the back with regards to diameter, serratedness, anything? Generally are the wounds serrated or are they clean?

Also what organ was struck by the stab, if any? McGillis knows his anatomy decently enough that he can make an educated guess here. ]

[faentasy]

[It's definitely more like a puncture than a gash.

All of the wounds definitely seem to be clean at the edges, which includes the one at her front and back. With regards to the front and back wounds, they seem pretty similar in diameter and in the cleanliness of the edges!

The wound certainly gives another meaning to having a hole in one's heart because it definitely seems to go right through hers.]

[vogelfrei]

[ That's some precision alright, then. Interesting.

What is the diameter of the wound? We've got a few bladed weapons among us that could pierce someone clean through so an impression of size might help.

And then, the wound on her left forearm... How is it positioned? If McGillis raises his own left arm as if to protect himself, would the part that is slashed on Morgan's arm face to the front? ]

[faentasy]

[The front wound at its widest point seems to be about 4 cm wide, with tapering edges on both ends. The back would be pretty similar in size.

The wound on her left forearm would indeed be facing her front if it was raised!]

[vogelfrei]

[ Finally some defensive wounds in here!

Let's look at the smaller injuries that are spread over her upper body and wings. I'm assuming there isn't really any pattern to them? ]

[faentasy]

[It only took like what, 4 cases to get here?

You are indeed correct that there is no pattern to all those random nicks and scratches on her upper body and upper wings! They're all clean, but very much superficial. Her bottom set of wings look like they're furled up like usual though, so it's harder to tell the extent of damage there, but there are a couple nicks there too.

While he's looking over her, McGillis might also notice that Morgan's right hand is no longer bandaged compared to before and in fact looking mostly healed up! Also she has no fingernails, because this is a thing apparently.]

[vogelfrei]

[ ... weird hands. Is there anything on her hands? Any kind of dirt or anything?

And same question for her feet while we're here, how's the feet on this fine morning. ]

[faentasy]

[Nothing on her hands except for the complete absence of any fingernails!

As for her feet, it's bare as usual but since he's looking closer (for once? I assume he doesn't have a feet fetish or something) he can notice that she has no toes. It's like eternal sockfeet here.]

[vogelfrei]

[ SURE. WHY NOT. NO TOES. It's been five weeks of Morgan being around and his mind always autocorrected toes onto her feet... wrongfully.

Well. Cool.

Is there anything else that would stick out to him when giving the body a look over, or is he good here? ]

[faentasy]

[Nothing else seems to be up with her body, but there is a small dagger lying near her body, just outside of where the blood pool ends.]

[vogelfrei]

[ OH BOY. Well, how's that one looking? Bloody? ]

[faentasy]

[It sure is! The blade definitely has some blood on it, but what's also noticeable is the tip is also gone, with what's left of the dagger only being about 10 cm long.]

[vogelfrei]

[ Hmm hmm hmm. Is it one of the daggers you would buy from the store, like the one he owns? ]

[faentasy]

[It definitely looks like one of the ones from the store, yup!]

[vogelfrei]

[ Well then, that's going to the cloak so he can present both as evidence.

Poor Morgan... he'll close her eyes properly before he leaves. ]
