Haha. Not so common where you're from, I take it...?
[ not that a group murder solving is very common where temenos is from, either, but also. ]
The teamwork was new for me as well. I do quite a bit of work solving these types of cases at home - though we were constrained in many ways, to have other eyes and ears was not a bad thing.
[ noted! that emotion is immediately noted. temenos's expression doesn't change - it remains that calm, placid smile. ]
A variety of duties, but in summation, I mostly investigate crimes against the Church for the Pontiff.
[ there's a blink and you'll miss it pulse of something - sad, there, like looking into a pit, but then it's gone. ]
Recently, it involved solving a string of murders, but other times, I simply run errands, or collect information. More often than not, I am performing services as needed in Flamechurch, or memorizing an, if you'll pardon the pun, unholy amount of scripture.
...right. Sounds like your type of it is-- pretty different.
[a little wash of relief, there.]
N Corp's Inquisitors are more the extremist kind. They say they believe in pure humanity or something, and think anybody with mechanical prosthetics doesn't count as human anymore. When we ran into 'em... they were busy wiping out a whole town of 'heretics'.
there's a feeling that comes off of temenos - it's this deep sense of dislike, particularly at the end. it has nothing to do with the limbs, and he even scoffs. ]
Well. The clerics of the Sacred Flame are healers. To reject someone for finding the capability to continue functioning after drastic bodily damage is astoundingly cruel. To eliminate lives is the very moral opposite of what the Order does.
[ there are plenty of heretics - in fact, the ones temenos has dealt with have tried to start a cult, even recently - but that sort of behavior sits badly with him, and he's a little like. protective? almost? of gregor. they barely know each other but he wouldn't let that shit fly.]
At any rate, I am the only Inquisitor in Solistia, at the moment. And I assure you, no such business is conducted.
[there's still a small bit of lingering discomfort from thinking about them, gaze flicking briefly down to his arms, but it's almost entirely faded. being able to feel the dislike for it in temenos' emotions--
it doesn't seem like he's lying.]
We got rid of that whole branch of 'em, at least. Nagel und Hammer probably still exists inside the Corp, but we definitely got one of their higher-ups, if not the one running it, so... she and her crew aren't gonna be nailing down anybody else.

[so, you know, we're doing great in comparison!]
So you're... what, an investigator?
no subject
[ investigator inquisitor close enough ]
But, yes, that is a part of my duties. I take it your life is a touch more cutthroat than life is here?
no subject
[that's. yeah there's a little buzz of worry, a brief thought of 'wouldn't be n corp though.' the initial feeling fades, at least.]
-it is, yeah, but-- say, what's an inquisitor do where you're from.

Does this... 'n corp' utilize inquisitors?
