This would be a great plothook for an adventure about finding out who is responsible and taking revenge. But again, this should be planned with the player. | |

Political intrigue can take some creativity but has a huge amount of potential. See Game of Thrones, Shakespeare, I Claudius, and so forth for ideas on how this might work. | |
