In the streets of Emlocke...

Mark, annoyed by the fellow's quite frankly impolite persistence, writes out a note.

[Writing roll: 5]

Dear Whip-Wielding Person,

Your persistent hounding of my person is growing to be quite impolite and unbecoming of gentlemen like we both undoubtedly are. I am currently attempting to pay my respects to my best friend, who seems to have been brutally murdered over at the square, and it definitely does not help that you are disturbing me in this task. Your barbaric bearing in this situation is, to be frank, perfectly awful and unlikely to achieve anything at all, since I am not even a mage that participates in the tournament and therefore entirely pointless to attempt to kill anyway. So I would appreciate it if you would stop what you are doing right now and leave me to my devices, which are, I assure you, completely harmless and unrelated to this magical slaughter going on today.


Sincerely,
Mark MeatWagon

He writes out this note and passes it to the whip man, who reads it carefully. He seems a bit ashamed of himself, handing it back, the parchment stained with the blood on his hands. He then turns around and walks away.

Ah, civilized discourse. What can't you achieve, really?

Mark heads over to the square and starts digging a grave.

[Digging roll: 4]

Though it's a bit difficult at first, Mark does manage to dislodge the cobblestones and dig out a sizable hole in the ground, definitely one that's large enough for Yorinnsud's body.

((I think that you are the luckiest player of this game. You got an awesome transformation , practiced ¡¡Medicine!! without negative effects, survived Whip Man and even got help form the gods. That means that the RNG has planed a shameful and silly death for you))

((Actually, to be like Samuel you need to uncover ancient secrets and ignore them as if they were something unimportant, or destroy them and continue with your adventures as if nothing had happened))

((The dice were greatly in my favor too. But then I died to double or triple 1s. And there is no such thing as a second samucane. Also, you escaped him. I escaped the guy too by strategically moving backwards. It's not that hard if the RNG doesn't absolutely hate you.))

Next to a grave of some sort...

Mark takes all of Yorinnsud's stuff - some coins, two strange crystals, a sharp short sword and two metal gauntlets, then lowers her into the grave.

He is suddenly tapped on the shoulder.

It's the whip man again. He looks a bit somber.

"So sorry, sir. My deepest apologies for you, and your friend. I hope you have a pleasant day."

Not waiting for a response, he walks off into the distance.

Strange guy, that whip man.

In a bloody square...

Mark feels that he should take the time to pursue a dialogue with this strange fellow. He writes out another note.

I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name.

After writing the note, he gets ready to hand it to the whip man.

However, he seems to have left already. He's pretty fast, looks like.

[Perception roll: ?]

He's obviously left the square, but which way did he go? Hm.

In a bloody square...

Mark decides to search for the gentleman, not giving up so easily on his communication needs.

[Search roll: 5]

Oh, there he is, running off toward the town limits. Better try to catch him!

[Whip Man running roll: 4+1]
[Mark pursuit roll: 1+1]

Damn, he really is fast. Must be in a bit of a rush. Mark sees him disappear around a street corner, then, when he himself reaches said street corner, his quarry is nowhere in sight. He can't even hear the guy's footsteps anymore. It's like he just disappeared or something. Or maybe just took some kind of weird shortcut. Either way, seems unlikely he'll catch him now. Better get back to the burial.

[Burial roll: 1]

He crafts an elaborate pit trap over Yorinnsud's grave, just so that any unwary pilgrim crossing this area will find out the easiest imaginable way who exactly is buried here and what she looked like. Of course, it's a single-use pit trap, but he finds the humorous value of imagining the moment when somebody falls in to be worth it. Besides, it's less boring than simply covering his old buddy with a ton of dirt.

In a bloody square...

Mark has a sudden change of his nonexistent heart, dismantling the pit trap he constructed from scratch in a remarkable display of ingenuity, them just shovels dirt right onto Yorinnsud's corpse. It takes about ten minutes for the tireless metallic automaton to accomplish this task, at which point he relaxes after a job competently done.
