Daeva, Yadamonerk does not understand something. If Gestanerk has died, who steers the Kerubar?

Kerubar would not have killed Gestanerk--or would they?

Something very bad happened. Yadamonerk's whiskers are shaking. The Meniherk Excavation Union is in trouble, nyerk.

"Why do you think that?"

Shugo letters always stored safe in special pouches. This letter is Gestanerk's writing, but look, look at all the damage!

And Daeva says that Gestanerk's sack was still in his hands, but letter and clothes were torn? Missing information is in missing parts of letter!

Please, Daeva, find the rest of the torn letter, you are our only hope, nyerk.

Accept. Decline.

The place where you found...the letter is best place to start, yes? Other pieces, other clues may be nearby!

Yadamonerk must know who controls the Kerubar, and also who killed Gestanerk.

Kill many filthy [%dic:STR_DIC_M_DIC_M_DigCherubimL_24_n]s and [%dic:STR_DIC_M_Cherubim2Wp_24_An]s until you find an answer, yes?

"That seems a bit extreme."

Is Daeva scared by seeing Gestanerk's dead body?

Many Shugos died helping Daevas after Cataclysm. No Shugos said no when asked for help.

This is how Daeva honors them?

"That's not fair at all."

Torn letter, torn clothes. Gestanerk is dead, Kerubar everywhere....

Kerubar have to be the answer, yes? Daeva is wise and powerful.... Daeva will discover....

Daeva!

"I have news for you...."

What? This is secret letter between Gestanerk and Hecuba! Hecuba said she hadn't talked to Gestanerk for a long time.

Lies! Hecuba is a killer. Yadamonerk has limits to his kindness, and all are exhausted!

Go! Go now and warn your Human friend [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Hecuba] that Shugo justice is coming! She never gets away from this, not after killing a Shugo.

"Just let me talk to her...."

This is not good news, is no news!

Yadamonerk knows in his feet there is more of Gestanerk's letter to be found.

Daeva must find it. Must, must! Nyerk.

"Calm down. I'm on it."

You again? What is it this time, more threats?

I don't know anything I didn't know last time I talked to you.

I haven't talked to Gestanerk for a long time!

"I have a letter that says otherwise."

What letter? I told you, we went our separate ways a long time ago. But...tell me, is Gestanerk dead?

I knew Gestanerk's plan was too extreme, even for him. I wanted no part of it. That's why we split up--I'm telling you the truth!

You're not looking for me. You want his other partner. You want Hamerun the Leech, an Asmodian Daeva.

"What? That's treason!"

No. I'd never betray our people like that. Once I saw the lunatic eyes of the Asmodian, I ran as fast as I could. It's just...I don't have anywhere else to go....

But I didn't think he'd kill Gestanerk...he must have taken away Gestanerk's power to control Kerubar. He has that power.

Listen, you have to help me. These Shugos aren't like the others--they're hard, cruel. You have to speak for me. They respect you--you're a Daeva! if you stand up for me, I'll be safe!

"I'll do what I can."

Have you returned from talking to your killer?

Yadamonerk should never trust laborer who works so cheap, no matter how desperate. Look, look what happened to poor Gestanerk, nyerk.

Where is she? Hecuba has...appointment with Shugos that we will not...ahem...miss.

"Things are not as they seem...."

A...Asmodian Daeva? Here? These new lies make less sense than the others.

Hecuba the killer cannot escape her crimes with crazy stories! Balloon goes up, stakes are sharpened and oiled...Shugo vengeance will not be denied!

Asmodians...hah!

Search [%dic:STR_DIC_M_DIC_M_DigCherubimL_24_n]s and [%dic:STR_DIC_M_Cherubim2Wp_24_An]s, find the rest of the torn letter, and take it to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Shugo_LF2a_1].

[%collectitem]

Press [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Hecuba].

Report the result to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Shugo_LF2a_1].

Find the rest of the torn letter and give it to Yadamonerk, so that he can find out why Gestanerk died.

Yadamonerk said that the only lead to Gestanerk's murder is the rest of the torn letter. He asked you to search Kerubar in the area where you found his body.

When you found the rest of the letter and checked the contents, you learned the letter was meant for Hecuba.

When you went to her, Hecuba broke down and told you that an Asmodian Daeva must have deprived Gestanerk of his power and killed him. Yadamonerk was skeptical of this story.
