Well I too can't remember the detials, but he definitely DID plan something, he
wasn't just wandering out ot think etc.

I think that either he planned to murder Harry and get back Oxmoon, he might
have painted it as this

He goes out to the Worm to think out a novel... Harry follows him, takes
advantage of the lonely location to try to kill him and in the struggle, HARRY
goes over the edge and is killed. Kester woudl then say that he's terribly
sorry that Harry was killed but that it was an accident - and since there is
nothing to connect him to Thomas' murder, and Harry is the one with the skills
to be an unarmed killer, Its likely that it will be writtne down as an
accidental killing in self defence, and he will probalby be able to get Oxmoon
back again, with Hal as his heir.

Hary does say that he thoguth that K was going either do the above scenario, or
to kill himslef and make it look as though he had been murdered by his enemy
Cousin Harry -. But I suppose H's evidence is a bit tainted...

Regency

Was Kester planning to commit suicide & hope that Harry was blamed for murder?
Or was murdering Harry what he planned to do? Did Kester think he could somehow
best Harry in a physical fight? Or did he not even know that Harry was
following himm, and was wandering out on the Worm to think and was suprised by
Harry?
