At around 4:00 this afternoon, a Mr. Martin Grenig was rushing from the Peace Force offices in Portland when an unknown assailant attacked and killed him within a block of the building. A Peace Force representative has informed us that witnesses saw a tall elven man with tatoos totally covering his arms attack and kill Mr. Grenig using a form of martial arts. Unconfirmed reports say that the attacker killed Grenig with a single crushing blow to the top of the head. The Peace Force is performing an autopsy and is in charge of the investigation. *****end video feed***** And my associates retrieved this from the Peace Force autopsy files: *****include memo #233dec154.a****** On the subject of the autopsy of Martin Fraternay Grenig: the subject died of a single massive blow to the skull, caving it in and causing instantaneous death. When searching the MO files for corresponding wounds and crimes, we received only "This data is classified, by High Council Order" which leads me to believe that this was less a murder than an assassination by order of the High Council of Princes. Based on this possibility, I recommend that we find a suitable scapegoat, arrest them, put them on trial, and execute them for the murder.

Two similar packages, these fully physical, arrived via Brinks Armored Services on 11-5-54. The seals on those packages were inspected, and the appropriate institutions -- Lloyd's of London and the Banque Suisse Geneva -- were requested to send the sealing officials as witness for the validity of each respective seal. Both packages were sealed within hours of each other, one in London, the other in Geneva. The date on each seal coincided by eight days of a covered-up breakin at a NAN intelligence agency several months ago. All three insitutions recorded the request to send their respective information packages to the Examiners within .0002 seconds of each other at the end of October -- a time/date estimated to be shortly after the death of 'Wyrm'.
