[Worldmaster27]

You try to chat with Mel, but she still isn't fully awake. The corpse doesn't move, but you still aren't sure it is completely dead.

[Lyeos]

((Curse you, Worldmaster! The only way to establish loyalty is to make out with someone!))

Keep watching the corpse. Poke the side of Mel's head.

[Worldmaster27]

You poke Mel in the head, making sure she's still away. She is, and she slaps your hand away. Instead of bothering her further, you keep an eye on the corpse. About five minutes later, Vin shows up with four other men.
'Morning, Mel
'Morning... Let me sleep...
Uh, yeah. Are you guys guards?
Yeah, she said a zombie was here. Where is it?
It's dead. Right here.
She nudges the corpse with her foot.
That it? Doesn't look like a zombie?...
Of course not, I burned it.
Really? How are we to know it was a zombie and not some innocent? You could be a murderer!
Come on, do you think she'd find you and drag you over here just to show off someone she had killed?
And when was the last time you saw someone so short?
Travelers come through here all the time, and we don't know everyone in the city!
Have a magistrate inspect it then!
What do you continue with, if at all?

[Lyeos]

Figure out why we're calling Vin a she.

Yeah, have it inspected.

[~Neri]

Because Vin obviously doesn't want his her real gender told to random strangers.

[Lyeos]

Vin never told us that.

[~Neri]

We can infer it from the way Vin dresses.

[Worldmaster27]

((What Kevak says. It wasn't an oversight on my part.))

[Lyeos]

Alright, then. If you say so.

[Worldmaster27]

It won't trouble you to get a magistrate.
He's sleeping now. Like most would be. It would trouble him.
Then get him in the morning. We can wait.
We can't just leave you alone. If you two are murderers, you'd escape!
So wait here, send one of your men in the morning to get the magistrate.
You say you burned this man with magic, you could easily do that again while my man is away!
You have a feeling that the guard is just being difficult.
If we were murderers, we could kill four of you just as easily as three.
You'll be fine.
Stubbornly, the sergeant orders his men to surround the three of you. It'll be a long night.

Take a nap.

Everyone should take a nap!

Take a nap.

Also make comment on Mel's early morning-niss

[Lyeos]

I agree with Dawnstar. But also ask if she's cold. It gives me an excuse to suggest hugging Mel us a reason to ask about going back inside.

[Worldmaster27]

You think about asking Mel if she's cold, but it's a fairly warm night. Besides that, she's already fallen asleep. You whisper to Vin.
_{Mel's got the right idea.}
He glances at Mel.
_{Go ahead. I'm going to stay up. I don't trust these guys any farther than I could throw them.
Okay then. Wake me up if you get too tired.}
You fall asleep shortly.
---ZZZzzzZZzzz---
Waking up hours later, the sun has just barely risen, casting the sky in a soft orange light. Mel's still asleep, and Vin's out cold. The guards are still here, worn thin from the night of boredom. The corpse is still here too, unmoving.
