[QUOTE="talien, post: 4255822, member: 3285"] [b]The Consequences of Vice: Part 2d – The Freeport Institute[/b] Sebastian oversaw the ransacking of Frederick and Hayden’s room with a trace of worry. “My apologies for the mess, Wilimina.” She smiled sweetly at Sebastian. “It’s not a problem at all, Sebastian. I’m more concerned about the damage this young man inflicted on the school.” She whirled back to resume her dressing down of Hayden, who looked properly chastised. Ilmarė put one ear to a dresser as she rapped on it with a fist. She pulled out a drawer full of socks and tossed it aside. Reaching into the dresser, she pulled out a leather purse. “Gold doubloons.” Ilmarė jingled the purse. “Hayden wasn’t kidding, whatever Frederick was doing on the side, it was lucrative.” Beldin grunted. He looked up at the ceiling. Then he looked down at the floor. “What is it?” asked Vlad. “Floorboards are all wrong,” said Beldin. “Takes a dwarf to notice.” “Which floor—“ was all Vlad got out before Beldin bellowed and slammed one foot down onto a board. The floorboard snapped upwards, flinging a small leather case with it. Sebastian snatched it out of the air. Kham reached into the wastepaper basket. “Best way to find out what a man does with his time is to search his garbage.” Ilmarė wrinkled her nose at him. “You sound like you speak from personal experience.” After fishing around for a moment, Kham pulled out a crumpled piece of paper. He smoothed it out. “Come with the money you owe us tonight,” he read aloud. “We will meet in the usual place. Don’t be late.” “Sounds like Finn to me,” said Vlad. Sebastian opened the leather case. Four vials of a syrupy gray liquid were within. He uncorked one and sniffed at it. “Strange. I’ve never seen this before.” “Potions?” asked Beldin. “Alcohol?” suggested Vlad. “Poison?” added Ilmarė. “Oh for Althares’ sake, give me that!” Kham snatched the vial out of Sebastian’s hand. “Here’s how you find out what a man’s been drinking.” He took a swig. And then the world went sideways. [/QUOTE]
