Clue 14:
A couple of gossiping girls walk past, giggling as they try (and fail) to keep their conversation private.
“I heard one of the healers found some lost paperwork in healer hall. It was a request form for some sort of heavy sedative, written in the same handwriting as that list!”
“Which list?!”
“You know…the one with tansy on it! The one that the greenrider and candidate found in the dining hall!”
The other girl squealed. “So…The same person who made that list ordered sedative from the healers?! It must be the killer!”
“I know!” the other girl gasped. “But you know, Talian said he never saw that paperwork before. He doesn’t think it’s real!”
“Well, he’s also crazy. He tried to kill himself, remember! And he has a dragon now, so it’s not like he’s been combing over every piece of paper in there…Rumor has it he doesn’t even go there much anymore. Who cares what he thinks?”
“You’re probably right. Maybe he’s trying to protect the killer!”
“Or just trying to look smarter than everyone else…”
The first girl paused. “So wait…if they requested it, who picked it up?”
The other girl grinned wickedly. “No one did! The request was never filled. No one even remembers seeing it.”
“Wow…weird! Maybe they gave up and stole it!”
“Yep…”
After a little more giggling, they vanish down the hall.
