House Kestrel Party

Lady Serenna and Quinn Adler of House Mejora have been invited to a House Kestrel Party to celebrate the Holy Birthday of Na-Marquis Philippe Kestrel at Palade del Frite. The party appears to have no military presence. Houses are protected with genetically coded locks on the doors.

Notable Attendance

  • Tara Higham - an envoy for House Stadt
  • Carina Eigenshaw - Heir of House Eigenshaw
  • Do-Yoon Yi - a representative from House Eigenshaw
  • Piotr te Kaan - an envoy for House Thennatt
  • Philippe Kestrel - Heir of House Kestrel
  • Zeval Kestrel - nephew of Marquis Azmos Kestrel
  • Lady Irena - a Bene Gesserit, partner of Zeval Kestrel

Party Dynamics

Whilst looking around the party, it appears there are two clear groups focused on Philippe Kestrel and Carina Eigenshaw - Do-Yoon Yi and Tara Higham.

Message Delivery

Stanley Oswald, Spymaster of House Mejora, presented a message to Lady Serenna that needed delivering to House Thennatt.

Serenna and Quinn went to Piotr te Kaan’s residence to deliver the message and witnessed a member of staff and Zeval Kestrel leaving the premises.

Piotr revealed that the message was a marriage proposal between Lady Serenna and the Heir of House Thennatt, Oda-Khagan Gildur Thennatt.

An assassination attempt was made on Piotr using a Leviathan Viper (a creature produced by House Mejora). The creature utilises the venom from a pufferfish native to the planet of Rosak, causing a slow and painful death.

Lady Serenna and Quinn Adler fled the scene after Piotr’s death to avoid being connected to the incident.

Party Insights

Through conversation, it was learned that Marchioness Juliette Kestrel wanted House Mejora at the party to form “good relations.”

Quinn met Turgan Moll, a merchant, offering future relations with House Mejora and arranged a future meeting to meet clients.

Tara Higham appears displeased with the arrangement between Carina & Philippe and is “on the hunt for a deal.”

Lady Serenna hides in the crowds by conversing with Lady Irena, who is under the belief that Lady Serenna was sent to marry Philippe Kestrel.

Stanley reveals that Turgan Moll has been selling some of the products of House Mejora for at least the past two months, including the Leviathan Viper.

Piotr's Death and Aftermath

Personal guards to House Kestrel arrive at the party and discreetly inform Juliette Kestrel of the death of Piotr te Kaan.

The guards request for Lady Serenna and Quinn Adler to come to the interrogation rooms to “discuss” Piotr’s demise.
