The hunchback laughs a little and gestures towards the door before yelling at a group of peasants that are waiting to hold court with the 'merchant'. Trudging through the narrow streets, the Ivory Markets is less than an hour's walk away towards the river, giving Ghost plenty of time to ask questions, and it seems that everyone has something to say about this 'Bremmen'. Bremmen duGuar was once a heavy in the area, selling insurance to established businesses and ridding the markets of 'unwanted traders'. Seems that several years ago he hooked up with one of the many religions the dots the streets of Metropolis, the Yellow Cult, and prospered in his business dealings. Ghost had heard of this 'Yellow Cult' before though, crossing them in his dealings investigating the followers of Hess Ne-el Il'ithuk. The Yellow Cult openly provided help to the sick and needy of the streets, but rumour was that they cultivated the organs of the sick and dying for their bio-magical experiments. Now it seemed that Bremmen was doing their work for them, he 'oversees' several stalls in the Ivory Markets that deal with herbal extracts, organ sales, and temporal regression*. It may take some time to find the man in the maze of stalls, but no doubt he will be there somewhere. [sblock]*It seems that some people will believe in anything to stay young and beautiful. Temporal Regression is a process that people with the right money can attempt, though the more educated know that it is folly.
