The story of the assassination is all over town by morning, with details
ranging from worryingly accurate to totally fantastical.  It was the
Right Hand of Vandrak, many say, probably inspired by the graffiti on
many, many walls.  Somebody had been busy last night.  In blood-red red
letters, all over the top end of the city, are the words:

"Tanala was First.  Who will be Next?  The Right Hand of Vandrak!"

The city guard are out in force.  Anyone in the area who looks
insufficiently busy finds themselves pressganged into work gangs, tasked
with removing the graffiti. Some try to scrub the red paint off walls,
with mixed success.  Others are simply painting out the graffiti in
whatever paint is available, even if it completely clashes with whatever
paint the wall was originally painted in.  There are very few people in
the Dragon; nobody is going to be lounging around drinking, and the
Guard have even 'borrowed' some of the staff.

Opinions are divided as to whether or not the enigmatic Right Hand of
Vandrak are really behind the death, or are merely trying to exploit it.
  One rumour Rotemdol hears says from one of the few street traders not
shanghaied into graffiti removal says that Tanala and Kluranyr had
killed each other in a bizarre suicide pact.
