Frau Lena claimed to be an ordinary citizen who happened to be near a disrupted concert in Neuleopoldshof. She was taken in for questioning by the Gendarmerie, but seemed strangely reluctant to describe what she saw.

The woman sitting opposite me looked down at her hands, clenched tightly on her lap.

Could you describe what you saw at the time of the incident?

Like I told you, I was listening intently to the performance when the strange melody began.

I don't know where it came from, or who was playing it... is this how you do your investigating? By interrogating honest citizens?

She wore an angry look on her face, but was <color=#d41f1f>avoiding my gaze</color>. There have been multiple reports of thefts at concerts as of late.

No need to be nervous. How about we talk about something else? Let's see... the concert was a performance of the fantasy 'Erdenherrenwinter.' How did you become interested in it?

What kind of question is that? I love music, especially fantasies. Erdenherrenwinter is one of my favorites, and I've heard it many times. What reason do I need?

That was the premiere performance of Erdenherrenwinter. <color=#d41f1f>She could not have heard it before</color>.

You may recall that the concert was only open by invitation due to the timing. Do you have the invitation with you?

Er, invitation... yes, I do...

Wait, I thought it was here... where did it go... Sorry, maybe...

At the time of the incident, the subject was likely at the concert to <color=#d41f1f>look for things to steal</color>. <color=#d41f1f>She was afraid that her false identity would be exposed.</color>

The music of the heart sounds, resonating with the heartstrings of the subject and bringing back memories.

Outdoor concerts never require invitations. As the melody revealed, you snuck into the concert with ulterior motives. Do you recall it now?

You're right... I took stuff without permission at the concert... but I wasn't trying to keep anything for myself!

I'm trying to return them... I just wanted to find my daughter, who was taken away from me twenty years ago... I wouldn't recognize her, but she... she'll have the amulet on her. I must find...

I told the Gendarmerie of Frau Lena's true identity, but also vouched for her future. No useful information was garnered from her, and this line of investigation was closed.
