The mission: Your story in Gdansk

Gdansk, 1734. You arrive at the gates of Danzig before dawn, papers bearing the seal of the Merchant Guild. The message was brief: Augustyn Krahmer is dead.

Krahmer was one of this city's most powerful amber merchants. His body was found at Neptune's Fountain, face down in the basin. The water is barely knee-deep. He did not drown. He was placed there.

You have the city morning and three suspects. Your investigation begins at the western gates.
