[QUOTE="Hillsy7, post: 6740144, member: 6689191"] [b]Burrai Steelborn[/b] Burrai nodded thoughtfully, scratching his beard as he listened. Perhaps not as much had changed as he feared. Those two were still in town, and neither showed telltale signs of sliding into league with darker forces. Smugglers in their own way were as honest as merchants - they just disagreed with the law as to what could be traded. Though Jabbar's run in with his own mortality was news, Burrai doubted that would drive him into the pocket of the Black Network. Both men were well connected, with reputations to uphold - and both likely to sell him a translation for a price. ....speaking of which. [COLOR="#8B4513"]"That's good to hear Uthal.
