[QUOTE="frostrune, post: 4126183, member: 12272"] The day was already fast on the rise when Dreth opened his eyes and looked about his room. It was nothing particularly special but it was reasonably clean and secure, the food was good, and the staff friendly enough. What more could a rogue ask for? Dreth washed his hands and face and dressed quickly. He could smell the Q'barran coffee from downstairs and determined that was exactly what he needed to clear the wine vapors from last night's revelry. One coffee and cold sausage pastry later and he was ready to step out into the street feeling much refreshed. The cacophony of street merchants, creaking wagons, and livestock greeted him as he swung the door open. Reflexively he double checked the security of his coin purse and found it a whole lot lighter than he had remembered. [B]"Thrice blasted changelings!", [/B] he mentally cursed. The Gateway was always a good time but his luck never seemed to hold there. He seriously doubted 'luck' had anything to do with it. 'Luck' also wasn't going to feed his expensive habit of wine and women. He had better do something to put some coins back into that purse. Time to peruse the postings with the other dregs. Dreth stepped out into the flow of humanity and moved nimbly toward the docks. He pulled his hood a bit lower, ostensibly to shade his eyes against the sun. Truthfully, he wasn't exactly sure who he might run into. Dreth didn't like 'surprises'. He finally arrived at 'the board' just in time to see a man wearing the livery of the Harbormaster exiting the scene, his newly posted handbill gently flapping in the salt breeze. ______________________________________________________ [B]"Children are missing? And the Harbormaster is involved[/B]?", Dreth thought to himself. [B]"These can't be just any old children,"[/B] he continued, [B]"The Stormlords could have given a flip less about the urchins I speak to on any given day. Something was going on here. Probably rich kids. Possibly kidnapping, extortion or randsom." "Whatever it is, it isn't the kids' fault. Seems I've got a date with Master Wylkes."[/B] [/QUOTE]
