Chapter 5

The rush of knowledge left Atrael Elsinore dazed. He was utterly
overwhelmed and unprepared: reports of crimes flooding in from the
Justiciars Network, detailed records of criminals in the Justiciars
Archive, and the unsettling power of Inquisition. Atrael couldn't believe
what he was reading about the use of inquisition on peaceful citizens and
torture in exchange for testimony. Something was amiss, and the very
foundations of the Blood Tribunal seemed to be shaken.

As he grappled with these disturbing revelations, urgent news reached him.
The Voralian peacekeepers reported a crime in progress at the City Gardens.
Without hesitation, Atrael rushed to the scene, where he discovered the
lifeless body of an Imperial duergar. Taking a deep breath to steady
himself, he attempted to call upon the power of inquisition over the
peacekeeper present. To his relief, nothing happened, and the peacekeeper
gave him a puzzled look. Atrael tried again, still to no avail. However,
his keen instincts noticed a faint, eerie glow emanating from the corpse.

Atrael focused his inquisition power on the lifeless duergar. In an
instant, a surge of information overwhelmed him: witness accounts, details
of the inflicted wounds, and traces of blood... they were all pointing to
the conclusion that the Imperial duergar had been murdered by a shaman.
Atrael stood in awe of the newfound power he possessed, his hands trembling
from the rush of adrenaline that accompanied such revelations.
