Keryth:
[Sblock]Dahlia looks startled at first and apologizes to Keryth's first comment. "Of course, I'll be right there. Didn't mean to make you feel neglected ... just rough getting things back under control ..." With the addition of the second comment she eases a bit and smiles, "I'd imagine a meeting could certainly be arranged. "I don't leave work until the food service and the drinking is over, though, and that is well after the sun goes down. But if you don't mind me smelling like tavern food and spilled ale, I'll be glad to meet." She returns another warm smile.[/Sblock]
All:
The meal passes uneventfully. Dahlia comes by with several ales and refills of the stew-like mixture for all who want them. She comments about how tonights meal has been determined to being picked up by the merchant Dreeves, who hopes to smooth things over and is desperately sorry for causing so much trouble to such people of obvious power. She winks after saying this and adds that Endoo has the merchant Dreeves well between a rock and a hard spot.
As the party finishes its meal, Endoo approaches the table. "It is getting on in the evening, gentlemen. I must retire. I have already paid for your meal and added it to the merchant Dreeves' personal tab with me at his request. I do hope that you enjoy and feel that the results of the evening were well worth your modest effort. I'd hate to bore you witht he numbers and all, but the good merchant over there has agree to pay a years worth of retribution for personal liberties he has taken with waitstaff here. I should think they will appreciate the merchant's generosity. I don't doubt that it will be too long before his ties to the Black Market resurface, but tonight's embarassment will hamper his effectiveness for a while at least. My only real fear is how this will affect the robberies. They may decrease for a little while as his network is now compromised - but there will always be people to step into Dirk's place. And if they cannot be stopped, then when they resume they may be at greater force to make up for lost time. But that is in the future and yet to be seen."
He pauses for a moment, waiting to see if there is any last requests before he takes his leave. In all, he seems quite pleased with the turn of events this evening.
