The human sort of laughs off Wulfcyne, but then sees Nuria and is suddenly fearful for his life.

" AAAH. I HATE mice. The House sent me. They said you posed a threat to the bosses' plan to make the house powerful enough to gain respect. He said to take you out or at least slow you down. To keep you out of the way."

Meanwhile the members of House Orien look very confused " What are you talking about. Tarkanan? This man is a member of House Ghallanda and he is merely a food server" Behind him the halfling looks very nervously and is playing up hisstory to the people on this train.
 

How did they know we would be at the University? Who at the University is involved? Is the research still on this train? Nuria demands of the pitiful human prisoner.

How could you lower yourself to work for Tarkanan? Nuria asks with obvious disgust in her voice.
 

" Then maybe you would like to explain why a House Ghallanda server just tried to bury a sword between my ribs! Because I surely did not imagine this wound, nor did I inflict it myself! " shouts Makharat angrily, trying to shake off the effects of the drowsiness.

" Either chain that traitor yourselves, or get out of my way, because I dare say you will be out of your jobs when word gets back to your superiors that you allowed a Tarkanan spy and assassin to attack travellers on the Lightning Rail and then escape, " he adds.
 


Makharat go ahead and roll diplomacy or intimidate(whichever connotation you feel your character was taking just then)

The man looks at you " The research has already made it back to the boss. Even know he is learning how to use it. Once he does, he'll be able to show the whole house. I work for Tarkanan because I am Tarkanan the man says tilting his head so that you can see the red mark on his neck. We knew about the research because, well there are members of our house everywhere. We hear things just about as well as any other house, Thuranni and Phiarlarn included."
 


The members of House Orien look legitimately frightened for their jobs/life, yet they seem to believe you based on your evidence, and slap the halfling into manacles " We will take him in the back for questioning. meanwhile,would you mind terribly giving your statement to my partner?"
 

Makharat snorts and says menacingly, " If you want a damned statement, you can pry it one out of my companions, because I am not interested. "

With that, he sheathes his shortsword and heads back towards his companions. " Apparently their leader has already recovered the information is deciphering it as we speak, " he grunts. " Oh, and those two lumps require one of you answer some questions. "

" Now, I would appreciate it is someone would take a look at this,
" he adds, finally taking a moment to examine his new wound...
 

Nuria stares at the captive man held by Wulfcyne. Her penetrating gaze lingers upon the man's face for several long seconds.

Answer my next question carefully unless you do not value your pathetic life. Where exactly is the research? If it is in Sharn, exactly where is it? If I do not like your answer, I will allow my companion here (nodding towards Makharat) to do whatever he pleases to you. I'm sure it will be painful. My patience is wearing quite thin.

Briefly addressing Makharat, I will speak to the guards in a moment unless someone else wishes to do so. If I do not like this ones answers, he is all yours.
