"You mean buy a drink from me...for me? That's very sweet, so why not? Why don't you come behind the bar and pick out something you think we'll both enjoy. I'll make sure the back room is clean and set up."

'Something we'll both enjoy . . . ' Zykovian thought in his head. He felt a bit of pressure by the comment, but was resolved to find something for the two of them. Zykovian slid behind the bar as instructed and looked over the selections. His eyes darted from bottle to bottle, until for some reason they rested on Ravander's Spring Wine. It was oddly place and didn't seem to fit with the other bottles nearby.
Zykovian tried to remember what he knew of Ravander's collection . . . slightly sweet, not dry, earthy, full bodied, easy on the palate. Zykovian grabbed two goblets, dipped them in clear water and frosted them with a simple few words, then took the bottle and headed to the back.

*Amity is clearing off the table as Zykovian enters, her back turned to him.*
"Ah, Ravander's Spring 962. An excellent choice," Amity replies before turning around to sit in a soft chair facing Zykovian, "So, what would you like to talk about Zyk?"

"With you . . . just about anything," Zykovian teased. "But, business before pleasure,I'm afraid." Zykovain gathered the copies that he had made of the writings on the walls, and offered them to Amity.
"These writings are what I need translated . . . I don't have the chronology of the writings, though from wear and tear they seem to be in this order. There may be others, these are the only three I have found so far," Zykovain explained. As he explained, he poured the glasses of wine, Amity first. He considered waiting for her to sample the wine, but she seemed familiar with it, so he bypassed that step. Once the glasses were poured, Zykovian settled into a chair next to but facing Amity.

"Well, I'm sure you know already that these have been obscured and then copied with minor changes, so I won't make any excuses. This could be difficult, though, even for a native Mojiin speaker," Amity pauses for a few seconds, "Okay, the one you think came first says 'Do you wish to stop the deaths, Inquisitor? Meet me at Nemesis's End.' The second one says 'I am enjoying the taste of your Sisters' blood. Like sweet nectar, it slakes my thirst. Meet me at Nemesis's End.' The third one says 'I will exterminate all you hold dear, just as I did your family. Meet me at Nemesis's End.' " Amity raises an eyebrow, "How terrible..."

Zykovian tried to think of any reference to Nemesis's End. He looked as alarmed as Amity did on reading them, "There are definitely some issues there," Zykovian replied. "I found these writings in the Labours Ward . . . there may be others - though I think the message is clear enough. Do you know anything of Nemesis's End or Inquisitors?"

"As far as I know, there is no such place as Nemesis's End, not only on Eldiz, but in all the Known Spheres. That said, you may want to ask Eloquence, as it's possible that this is something new like a tavern or something that I haven't heard about. Of course, Nemesis is the Mojiin aspect of vengeance. Seen in the same context, I would imagine that the Inquisitor in question is one of Nemesis's Inquisitors, an elite cadre of Avengers who have a special connection to Nemesis."

"Just don't be a stranger. I hardly ever leave my inn nowadays, so I always like talking to friends to hear about exciting goings-on and funny stories."
