Hello, this is Steven Stalker. Last night the Seattle Branch Headquarters
of Katana Industrials suffered an explosion. This explosion left a body that
has been identified as that of Katana Industrials owner, Lord Samuel
Ambrosius. His body also had a note attached to him. This note had the words: "Now
my wife can rest in peace." It was signed "Mac". Forensic Mages are
trying to get a trace on the person who wrote the note, in connection with
three other, similar, murders. Lord Ambrosius had his head severed from his
body, when he was found by Lone Star. Ahh, here comes Detective Callahan.
Detective Callahan, has there been any progress in this investigation?

Detective Callahan: Yes, there has. We have found evidence that Katana
Industrials was researching a new strain of HMHVV.

SS: A NEW strain of HMHVV?

DC: Yes, a new strain of HMHVV, that would introduced into the system of
the intended victim by the air. The research was also being conducted on
Dwarves and other creatures that showed either a resistance to a normal strain
of HMHVV, or a different manifestation of HMHVV infection.

SS: Do you know why this research was being done?

DC: We have no idea at this moment. We also have evidence that Lord Ambrosius
was vampiric in nature, although he was an elf.

SS: A Vampire???!

DC: Yes, a vampire. We believe that the murderer is also a vampire. We are
finding evidence of a great struggle, Lord Ambrosius was lying next to a sword
with his own fingerprints on it. Also the MO is the same as the other three
murders, and we found blood different from the blood of Lord Ambrosius. This
blood is from a person who is highly infected with HMHVV.

SS: Thank you, Detective.

DC: You're welcome.

SS: This is Steven Stalker for KTAN News. We'll keep you informed of any new
developments.]<<<<<
