If I went with Ari my character could probably do the talking and diplomacy through her sheer charisma.

I'm wondering what it was that he stole exactly. Seems like a lot of people are looking for it, so it seems to be pretty good.

Should we go for it and leave the widow in the cold or something?

I'm inclined not to, but that depends on the kind of stuff he's been stealing.  If it's something the widow could use or something of sentimental value to her, I'd be much more inclined to give it to her, but we're not under an obligation to do so.  The job is technically just for the body, though we'll learn the rest (maybe) from Ari when he gets back.  My concern is that, if there's as much loot as everyone seems to think, they will likely be watching the widow for any sign she knows where it's hidden; if we just leave her the ring and, by implication, the map to it without investigating it ourselves, she'll head off to do the legwork, and that may well end with another body in the Sluice and the treasure going to no one who needs it.  Maybe not even the people who properly own it, if it's the corrupt guards instead of the nobles who were actually robbed.

Nah we should go for it, give the widow what the poor dead man earnt however dishonestly (it was only robbing the rich) and then casually mention the idea of revenge to her.

ninja: we should also mention that we know what's up, and that if she goes straight for it (not mentioning straight "treasure") she's gonna end up in a ditch herself.


edit: and now I have to go for about 4 hours.

Please don't make it sound like we'd kill her. It's the guards and nobles who would do that, not us.

And I'm in favour of getting whatever it is that her husband stole for her. It's both good (giving to a desperate and poor widow from the rich and cruel nobles), increases our friendship with the people in the sprawl and it also IC for me (Why don't those nobles let these poor people live like they do? Clearly, that's not fair because they are hogging the good life all for themselves!) which is a neat bonus!

Yeah.  For Eirlys, there'll be some issue with the "rightful" owners, though.  Just because their heads are so far up their bums that they can see sunlight from the other side doesn't mean that stealing from them is right.  Of course, bribery, corruption, and the murder/"disappearance" of a (suspected, not even proven) thief without even a hint of due process is even more wrong, so I suspect it won't exactly be too big of an issue should the treasure just vanish with the person who appropriated it, never to be (officially) found again. 
...
But, here's another fun question to consider: why did they "disappear" the thief instead of arresting him?  They had the City Guard in their pockets, they had his accomplice for a witness, and if they had managed to get the location of the treasure out of him, they would have had proof to do it all above-board, by the law.  The nobles behind it could have simply been petty and revenge-driven, but what's the purpose of getting revenge if you don't make an example of the thief?  Throwing his body in the ditch could have worked, but no one knew he was a thief, so no one knew why he was killed; that's bad for deterrence.  The alternative is that there must be something they needed to keep hidden, keep from the official law, and the actual answer to that, I suspect, lies in whatever he stole.
