"It is a beautiful thing," says Conuld. "Who did you expect to sell it to?" He sidles over to Pendrake. "A word outside?" he says to the northerner. With a little distance from Riffer, Conuld says "Pendrake, we might find some opposition from the others, but I believe you are right, and Solange is too trusting, bless her. If we let him go, he will brood for a day, and then he will seek revenge on us. He will gather a new gang of ruffians, and then we will not be safe in Orussus. We will be met with a dagger in the dark or a bolt in the back the moment we let down our guard. I am not sure I would accept money from a captain for him, but nevertheless we should put him aboard a ship - one that is going on a long journey to a far away place. Scrubbing decks among men who are not afraid of him will do him good. Agreed?" Going back inside, he says to the Blacklily, "Riffer, you must have belongings you wish to gather. Instruct us which, we will fetch them, see you safely to city limits, then unbind your hands, and wave you on your way."
