Mysterious Brother's Explosive Death: A brother's name, Milkleg Underhill, was found at a fiery hotel explosion scene. Witnesses heard chanting beforehand, but no bodies or fingerprints were found. The brother's ring was the only evidence, suggesting a mining background. The investigation continues, with the focus on the nature of the chanting and the identity of other guests.
Milkleg Underhill, whose name was found at the scene of a fiery explosion in a hotel room, was believed to be the brother of Kieran Underhill. Witnesses reported hearing chanting, which sounded demonic in nature, before the explosion. The front desk clerk also heard the chanting and the explosion, but couldn't identify the nature of the chanting or the number of people involved. No bodies or fingerprints were found at the scene, only a pile of ash. Kieran claimed that Milkleg was staying in that room and was devastated by his brother's apparent death. When questioned, Kieran became defensive and accused the investigators of making an ass out of them. He also revealed that they shared a family crest ring, which was found at the scene. The ring, which was more worn and less polished than Kieran's, suggested that Milkleg had spent more time working in the mines. The investigation was ongoing, with the fog giant detective Matt using his excellent sense of smell to track down leads. The nature of the chanting and the identity of the other guests remained a mystery.
Mystery Surrounds Actor's Death: Grieving brother cooperates with police investigation into brother's mysterious death, but complications arise due to last known location, possible enemies, and ritual at mausoleum.
Kieran Underhill is a grieving brother who recently lost his brother Milkleg, an actor, under mysterious circumstances. He was last seen with Milkleg the day his father died, but Milkleg cannot account for his movements after that. The last known location was at Neutral Milk Hotel where Milkleg went to gather his things. Kieran is currently dealing with the loss of his father and preparing for his coronation, but he is cooperating with the investigation into his brother's death. The police are looking into Milkleg's possible enemies, but no concrete evidence has been found yet. Kieran is currently being kept in a room while the investigation continues. The investigation is complicated by the fact that Milkleg's body was found in a mausoleum where Kieran had performed a lamentation ritual for his father, and the scent of the ritual was covering Milkleg's body. The police are also looking into the possibility that Milkleg may have been turned into a wolf and killed Kieran's family before coming back to the kingdom. Kieran is adamant that he did not harm his brother and is hoping for forgiveness if it is discovered that Milkleg did not know what he was doing.

Kieran's older brother, a troubadour and actor named Jeff, went missing after their father's death during the Lamentation ritual. Despite sending out the king's horses and men to search for him, they found him at Neutral Milk Hotel, where he had gone to wrap up his affairs. Tragically, Jeff was found dead, having summoned a demon of fire and flame during a misguided attempt to perform an unknown ritual.

Additionally, a memory stone discovered by the police reveals a person resembling Kieran, but slightly older, who appears to have been present during Jeff's final moments.

She suggests that there might be more to the story and that they should investigate further. The detectives agree and plan to interview Polonium and check Milpfeit's alibi.

Esma revealed that nobody else had been in the chamber where the deceased were kept for the past 12 hours, except for Kieran and his father. However, the group suspects that Kieran was not in the chamber for the full 12 hours based on the faint scent of Kieran detected by one of the team members. The chamber is sealed tight with no way in or out once inside, but there is a button on the wall to be pressed when the person inside is ready to exit. Esma also mentioned that they are given a key to the chamber in case of emergencies. The group is now trying to figure out why Kieran lied about being in the chamber for the full 12 hours.

The detectives also discussed the possibility of the suspect trying to cover up his presence by wearing a new cologne. This led to a humorous exchange where one detective suggested stripping naked to let the other smell him. Ultimately, the investigation required them to pay close attention to details, such as the length of time the suspect had spent in the room and the presence of a new scent. Additionally, the conversation revealed that the detectives were investigating a murder and were split up to cover multiple locations.

The dwarf kingdom, despite their equalitarian facade, has a complex and suspicious underbelly. During an investigation, the detectives discovered that Kieran's sleeping quarters were communal, and the names of the residents were displayed on the doors. When they questioned an old dwarf about any suspicious activity the night the king died, she was evasive but eventually revealed that she had seen nothing. However, she was later overheard discussing the waterboarding incident with her grandson, the king, suggesting a possible cover-up. The guards were uncooperative, stating that the king's orders didn't matter until he was officially crowned. The detectives were eventually banished from the kingdom, but not before they found the old dwarf's diary, which hinted at nonstop chanting in the room next to hers the night of the king's death. This revelation added another layer of intrigue to the investigation, suggesting that the dwarf kingdom was not as simple and equal as it appeared on the surface. The detectives were determined to solve the crime, despite the challenges they faced, as they believed in bringing justice to the victim, even if it meant going against the established power structures in the kingdom.

The librarian, Libra, is the acting king in this mysterious kingdom, and she is currently investigating a murder case involving a detective and a werewolf. During their conversation, they discuss various theories and potential leads, including books from the library that might provide clues. The detective, while trying to find a specific book, comes across a how-to book written by Libra herself, which they decide not to have signed. They also find other books that seem suspicious, one on disguising oneself and another on summoning demons, with handwriting on the library cards that match. The conversation reveals that Libra is an old and powerful figure in the kingdom, and her memory and truthfulness can be questionable. The detective and the werewolf plan to use this information to their advantage before they are captured and escorted out of the library.
Occult practices suspected in brother's death: Thorough investigation and communication between detectives led to the unmasking of the true culprit, despite initial suspicion towards the protagonist.

Discovering a Player's Real-Life Summoning of a Demon in a D&D-Like Game: Recorded game sessions and physical evidence can reveal players' in-game actions with real-life consequences.
During a parlor scene in a D&D-like game, the players were attempting to portray a murder scene involving a demon, but the game master (GM) was unaware that one of the players, Kieran, had allegedly summoned an actual demon. The GM, who was recording the session, played back the footage and discovered Kieran's involvement. The evidence included Kieran checking out a book on summoning demons from the library and leaving a note with the word "Dition" in his room, which matched the GM's handwriting. The GM also found a knife of memory next to the scene of the crime. Despite some skepticism from the audience, the GM was able to prove Kieran's guilt using the recorded footage and physical evidence. The incident serves as a reminder that actions in the game world can have real-life consequences.
Evidence Misinterpreted in Crime Investigation: Objective analysis of evidence is crucial for accurate conclusions in crime investigations, as unexpected twists and suspect deception can influence interpretations and lead to missed opportunities.
The evidence presented in the case, including a signature, an audition tape, and a fake recording, points towards the involvement of a suspect in a crime. However, the investigation team, despite having substantial evidence, did not make the best use of it. The team's conclusion was influenced by unexpected twists, such as the suspect's deception and the discovery of a secret passage. Ultimately, the team's inability to effectively interpret the evidence led to the suspect's escape. It's important for investigators to remain objective and thorough in their analysis of evidence to ensure accurate conclusions and successful resolution of cases.
