The gathered people began a clamor once the floor was opened, and voices came and went. Finally a voice spoke firmly, "I guess I will open it up with what I know a lot of us are thinking." A small D'finn vampire spoke from the back of the room. "Do we have any leads, are there suspects? Do we know who killed her, and how will we be going about bringing them to justice?" By the end of his spiel he had raise his voice from what had started as a firm statement to nearly a shout.
The chairman glanced at the members of the council, straightened his tie. "Well as of yet the investigation has only just begun, so we can't quite be sure of any list of suspects, however I can assure you that the police force of the town will be devoting a large amount of their time to solving this." He took a deep breath. "While it cannot be confirmed as of yet, I would like to make a slightly more personal comment before we close for a private council meeting. I do not, no I cannot believe that one of the citizens of this town is responsible for the atrocity committed. We live here, together, not as nests, covens, packs, and courts, but as a community of beings that want only peace together. Beyond that the public segment of this meeting is adjourned."

-Roland-
When the chairman basically kicked everybody out Roland picked up his notebook and slipped out through a side door to head to the library to pick up his stuff. Once he had his backpack on he started walking, but as he left the parking lot he decided instead of turning left and heading towards home, he was going to head right towards the soda shop and see how Auntie J was doing, and to pick up a cream soda. The meeting had left him slightly shaken, though the mayors parting message had given him some hope on how the town might be able to pull together, not rip itself apart.
