"I don't know if they'll regroup, but I agree that Simion is the target. Sam, Barn, you're with us. The rest of you, guard the wounded, and get word to the Roaming Inn when you can."The three 'beggars' take up positions around the real and fake Torenescus, along with the party, and you resume the dangerous march.There is some traffic in the muddy streets. You don't see any hooded men but the group does attract curious stares ... and you don't know, really, what the hooded men would look like without their cloaks and swords.After what seems like hours (but is probably much less), you make it to a wealthy neighborhood.  Here, for the first time on this trip, you see city guard patrols of a half-dozen swordsmen each; they seem quite regular here.  The guards seem taken aback but stand aside and let the Simions' party pass.The old man directs you, and soon after you arrive at a small mansion.  Simion knocks, and the door opens; the servant recognizes him."Wait here" Simion Torenescu says, and vanishes inside. After about ten minutes, he emerges with two other men.  The men carry sacks, and hand one to each of you.  The hefty sacks clink suggestively. They also hand sacks to the beggars but those look different."I will be safe here" he tells you. "Thank you. You will be contacted whenever we need your services. I think you will be well satisfied with how we treat those who serve us well. Good night. Oh, one more thing - it's possible that the Watch may give you trouble for this night's work. If they do, I'll deal with it. That may take some time, but I take care of my own."  He and the two men go inside and close the door.The 'beggars' take their leave. The leader grins and tells you "Good work. I'm Mario, by the way. I have a feeling we'll run into each other again." The three 'beggars' take off without further ado.</blockquote>
