Bartholomew Weyland, a merchant. 700 golden pieces, 200 bonus if he is the only one that hits the floor. Huge house, lots of slaves that shouldn't interfere, but also two bodyguards living in the house. A young and attractive wife, no more than twenty, daughter of a.... Ethranor stops himself on his track and bites his lips. You know, if there was some god with a strange sense of humor, I maybe saved his drunken wife from suffocation this very evening.....

As he seems to be quite rich, he probably gets invited to some parties, or makes them at his own home. I could use my social skills to get in there, and make you enter by the backdoor..we'll see. Besides, his young wife intrigues me."
