A Glass Of Red Wine - The red wine found on the Rainmaker's table. Not a drop has been drunk.
Renewed Doll- Three elegant puppets with the markings of the Rainmaker's family emblem embroidered on their skirts. They seem to be cherished family heirlooms of some sort.
Wooden Suitcase- This exquisitely crafted wooden suitcase seems to be empty.
Half a Glass of Red Wine - A glass of red wine sat on the table. A few drops clung to the inside of the glass. It seems at though at least half of the wine in the glass had been drunk.
Dog Bowl - An empty dog bowl lay on the ground. Its surface was very dry, indicating that it had not been used for a long time.
Dog Biscuits from Succubus - There were a few dog biscuits scattered around the corner. The were of high quality, and were even shaped as little bones.
Leather Suitcase - There was a locked square suitcase on the bed. The detective picked it up and shook it, but it made no sound. It appears to be empty.
Half a Glass of Milk - The milk stains on the wall are very wide, as if someone tried to drink half a cup in one mouthful. Upon smelling it carefully, the scent of a certain plant extract comes to mind.
A Pair of Scissors - A pair of finely crafted and very sharp scissors, with several dark green fibers upon their blades. These fibers look a little bit like they're from some kind of cloth, and are similar to the ones found in the Rainmaker's mouth and nose.
Half-finished Doll - The most severe damage was dealt to the face and chest.
Green Cloth - Thin, delicate green cloth. There are marks on the edges from which it has been cut. It can be seen that whoever cut it is very good at handling this kind of fabric. The fabric is very soft, and the cut is very smooth.

Half a Glass of Red Wine - Half a glass of red wine, found on The Prince's table.
Dog Bowl - An empty dog bowl. It looks rather old.
