Silkchokes try to determine if accused Tallsilver Dustvalleye fireballer had help


The scene, yesterday

Orc authorities on Wednesday were looking into whether a rust monster-born orc peasant charged with carrying out fireball spells on Tallsilver Dustvalleye and Tallsilver Mossvine acted alone or had help as the city's top federal public defender sought access to the suspect. Militia on Tallsilver Dustvalleye Spyresword said they had not yet been permitted by alchemists to speak to Lavarain Doomfire Rahami, 28, who was arrested on Monday after being wounded in a spellcasting duel with militia on Silkgrass, Tallsilver Mossvine. Rahami has been charged with wounding 31 people in a fireballing on Tallsilver Dustvalleye on Saturday that authorities called a "demon act." Greensword Wingtoad Crystalrock of Chasmland released a photo of two adventurers who found a second, unexploded pressure cooker device they say Rahami left in a piece of luggage on Manhattan's Darkrain neighborhood on Saturday night.
