*Following*

*Waits in hiding until Click Clack passes, then peers back through the door, signals Leau, and starts following the modron*

*Runs screaming to the door; scream sounds like a loud 56K modem*

*To Click Clack, in the staggered speech pattern modrons commonly use* "Does unit: m/Click Clack require assistance in open routine, yes or no?"

*Never drops the winning smile*

*Slowly approaches Leau and whispering" "I need you to facilitate my dishonest interaction with this other modron. Please accompany my ruse."

*Stares at Click Clack*

"That is a positive view, Leau, and I am pleased that you entertain it. Winning smile!"

*Watches Modrigaarz leave; turns to group, slowly, with open-mouthed smile, thumb extended upward*

"Shadowknave, this is your escort. They will see you safely from this building, provided you afford no resistance." *To his dates* "This is the Modrigaarz, of whom I have spoken. Would we not all agree that this is a remarkable happenstance? Please do nothing to interfere with his...

*Instructs the rest of the group to watch Shadowknave, while Lex goes to to fetch a couple Xaositect heavies and their Boss, located conveniently nearby*

"You refer to a mark. What do you mean by it? We encountered collectors who seem to know something about a 'Hardhead mark'. Is this not what you mean?"

"Mr. Shadowknave, I want you to answer my original questions but with a revised understanding of our intent. We are not interested in assassinating you. We want to know your business."

*Barrages Shadowknave with statistics and outcome probabilities which, despite their density, allow him to see how futile it is to hold out against us/grants Li Shenron a d6 Bardic Inspiration die*

"We have met Toranna and though she impressed us with her sense of humour, it was evident she was withholding information. I don't understand why you think you are valuable enough for her to dupe and assasinate you but, clearly, you are also not being frank with us. Please do not require that...

"Then why have they lowered their price for the contract?" *OOC: I am aware this is incorrect. I am trying to trip up Shadowknave."
