Hey, who knows, maybe the eternal child actor currently under the ministrations of the tmavy les - Doc, you presume - isn't who he claimed to be.
"I'm certain! I've seen all his shows when he swings by the North - last time was a couple of months ago on stage in Blackslate. That's him, alright!"
Well, there goes the theory that cultists were impersonating the theatre troupe. Wonder if McDowd got anything on the gunman?
"Hey, do me a favor, and keep an eye on him, would you?"
"I'll do it even if you won't let me!"
Leaving that concerning comment aside, you step back to McDowd, who has not only tied and gagged him up, but has also rummaged the gunman's pockets.
"How you doing, McDowd? Found out anything about this fella?"
He shows you a card, the letters BHC on them.
"Apparently, he's a member of the Bounty Hunters' Club by the name of Ajax Brun."
Ah yes, the hobbyist para-lawman organization, you've had your share of interactions with them. Thankfully, you have no known bounty last time you heard.
"Well, that's weird. Who is he after? Who hired him?"
McDowd just shrugs, putting the card back into Ajax's pocket.
You rack up your brain. The facts are:
- there were autowagon tire marks at the rear exit of the cultist cave
- troupe's autowagon allegedly came from the north, but it's been blocked by the Ravens
- driver and autowagon not showing signs of being shot at, despite claiming to have had a shootout
- passengers, however, were wounded
- there's a bounty on one of them, but which one?
Then comes the question: how would you check this hypothesis?
