Palace plot for Meg and Logan
1. The plea for help
Amy seeks help from millifriends - in-bar. Logan and Meg are chatting, Amy is pale and tragic, and they go immediately. Well. As soon as Meg is convinced.
2. The investigation begins
Amy provides a list of people to interview - a huge list of staff, guests, visitors. Meg & Logan have to figure out where the hell to start and what to ask. We could start an interrogation here, but it might work better in its own thread.
3. Interrogation 1
Let's start with the page - we can reference all the interviews they've done of other pages and how unhelpful they are.
(Also a good place to reference the chambermaid, who is not involved in the plot in the sligthtest, but has heard odd noises coming from a passageway that has no rooms off of it (or something like this. It's a dead end, but she's hearing things from beyond the wall). Logan and Meg initially dismiss her comments, but later, they will remember them. Perhaps they make a crack about her craziness.)
The page will fold quickly and easily and give up Lord Julius. He will also mention something about the meeting place, which he never was able to find, although he followed Lord Julius on several occasions.
4. Interrogation 2
Lord Julius is a slippery fish and tries to discredit the page. Logan and Meg get nowhere.
5. Snooping around
They get the chambermaid and the page to show them the places they mentioned. Amazingly, it is the same corridor! Which means secret chamber. Logan finds it (convenient leaning? Pulling a torch? Something somewhat cliche and silly.) and he and Meg proceed to snoop around what is clearly a Room for Plotting Dastardly Deeds. They find some pretty solid evidence implicating Lord Julius - a letter to the Evil Uncle - and try to leave with it.
They are caught by Lord Julius as they reenter the hallway. Lord Julius has a very sharp knife, which he threatens the pair with, but Logan talks his way out of it. Probably by insinuating (or just saying) that he and Meg were sneaking off for a little sexy time. Perhaps not quite in those words. He will get throughly chewed out by Meg for this, I expect, but I also don't think he cares.
6. The accusation! And imprisonment of the protocol officer
