I come bearing news. First, Allip has convinced Borius that you will have earned your pay if you return with the head of the one responsible. Allip will be able to be tell from the...er...remains whether or not it belonged to the one who performed the ritual on Rebekkah. Second, Allip has regrettably informed me that he was not able to obtain any information based on the fur sample you retrieved from underneath the bridge. And thirdly, you have a visiter."Maitre'd opens the door, and in tumbles a very, very dirty man. He stumbles forward and collapses onto the floor; apparently he had his ear to the door and was listening in to the conversation. His clothes are unremarkable, except for a green piece of cloth tied to his right forearm."Ye gods, this is a big house! Why, had I a heart for thievin', I could gather up some guys and it would take us weeks to pick this place dry! Not that I have a heart for thievin', though. 'Course not."The tiny man coughs up what appears to be a handful of dirt, looks at it in disgust, and wipes it on his filthy rags. He then extends that same hand toward Raiyek."Yer Raiyek, right? The elf? I was told that you were the guy I'm a'spossed to talk to. The name's Fat Tom (although just between you and me, I'm not really all that fat, iffn' you catch my drift). Marley sent me to give this to ya, then to show you the way back to his flat."Fat Tom reaches into his rags and pulls out a sealed letter, which he then hands to Raiyek.[sblock=Letter]Dear Adventurers,My sincerest congradulations! Word out on the street is that you were able to solve the problem that some of the drifters have been having beneath the Northharrow bridge. I confess, I had heard that the area was no longer safe, but you wouldn't have gone if I had told you that, would you? Besides, I sent Ash to ensure that you wouldn't get hurt.You're staying with Borius Gand, are you? I had my people follow you after your little stint at the bridge. I wonder, what is his connection to my dearest Rebekkah? Perhaps we can discuss this at our meeting. I believe I have a lead on who took her and where she is being held.  Fat Tom is very, very dirty, but he can lead you through the slums to my flat without encroaching on any other gangs' turf. Meet me there so we can discuss our next move.M[/sblock][sblock=OOC]You all get 72 exp for fighting the Echoes under the bridge. Each one was worth 60 exp, and there were six of them, so 360 divided by five = 72. Everyone who isn't Ash also gains 83 exp for a month of playing. So, in short, 72 exp for Ash, 158 for 7 Rabbit, Raiyek, Les, and Kruk.[/sblock] </blockquote>
