    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    Mihali stayed quiet as the Dreadlord departed, not impeding the man's movements more than he already had. The expression he wore was utterly blank, though through his head ran a thousand prospective questions and lines of inquiry. It was more than clear that the Governor had been killed for a...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    It was a good question, and one Mihali also wondered. It was more than likely that the Dreadlord would lie, of course, but that didn't matter. Watching his reaction, listening to the words that he chose. It would be small clues they could use. One had to think of all angles. "There were...

    ”Some of us were luckier than others in the Revolution.” Mihali commented dryly, offering nothing further on the subject of his promotion. Much of the information surrounding the matter was still hidden. Either not spoken of in public, ro simply not existing in the first place. Such was almost...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    The doors opened in front of Mihali as though they had parted themselves. It was of course the two Guardsmen standing flank on either side that had made his way, but the way the Grand Inquisitor regarded them they might not have existed at all. He stalked forward, his steps echoing through the...

    Mihali nodded as he opened the door to the carriage. The outside that greeted them was far different than what had been present around the headquarters of the Vigilite. Instead of crowded streets they were met with empty cobbles. Instead of masked members of the Inquisition they were greeted by...

    "It would be easier." Mihali conceded with a nod of his head. Alistair had the right of it, in a way. Knowing the plan would have made things simpler, they could take a thread and pluck it as they pleased. But they didn't have that luxury. "Think of a web." The Inquisitor said with a motion to...

    "Anyone with the resources to pull this off will likely also be smart enough to know this was coming." Mihali was making a lot of assumptions, but from what he knew of the murders and the way they had been...articulated. He doubted this was any sort of simpleton. Of course there was always a...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    Mihali pulled back the curtain over the door window of the carriage, glancing at the city streets and musing for a few seconds. The question was a good one, though also one which was more difficult to quantify than one might think. "At least a dozen." The Grand Inquisitor said, slowly turning...

    A sly sort of smile touched Mihali's face as the Initiate asked his question. "No, we do not." Most citizens likely wouldn't have thought about it. They would see the black cloaks, the masks, and they would assume that the Vigilite were up to their usual tricks. They would clear the streets and...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    Mihali shook his head. "No." There was a sense of finality to the word, but of course more doors could always be opened. For now the Grand Inquisitor had his own design of things, pinpricked with pieces of knowledge that he was keeping at bay from even the legislature. With a sweep of his...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    A nod tipped his head. "A likely possibility, and what most would guess." It had been his first assumption as well, and in fact was still his leading thought. Yet one did not become Grand Inquisitor by following their own thoughts. What mattered was the word of those who tried to keep their...

    "I agree." Mihali said matter of factly. "Despite your fathers illicit activities, he does not merit the same attention as the other three." His face remained completely straight as he slipped that drop of knowledge into the conversation, musing for a moment more before adding. "That along with...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    Mihali seemed almost bemused by the answer. "An apt enough truth, though a tad pedestrian." Then again, he couldn't blame the lad. Even on the streets there wasn't much information about the Vigilite. They were an organization devoted to secrecy more than most. Even the Forsaken were a less...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    For a few seconds Mihali seemed to grow quiet, pulling himself to the edge of his desk and turning slightly away from Alistair. His eyes fell on a document sitting just on the desk. "What do you think it is we do here?" He asked. "I mean, truly." There seemed to be genuine curiosity in his...

    Fable - Ask A Watchful Peace

    Mihali smiled pleasantly. He knew many men who had made that same claim. Many of whom were now dead, some who enjoyed more power than ever. Briefly the Grand Inquisitor wondered if either of them were happy with their outcomes. The thought was fleeting, and he smiled slightly as he looked...
