He was good at his trade. And his charges and their patrons loved him. It was not hard for him to influence them with just a hint of his magic or better with his flowery words and songs. This was, of course, the way of a Thought Stealer. How he gathered information and fulfilled his place in the Circle.Plus it gave Sargazzo something to do. He was the new bodyguard of the patron of this house. He was not so moody when he had a job to do. Well, moody was one way of being nice. The big brute could be downright destructive. As Omar learned many times when they were between jobs. Omar had paid for more than one round of drinks or new furniture or even cast a few of his charms to calm nerves and help the two shift back into the shadows. No use in letting Hakim find Omar too soon. They weren't yet ready to take on the old Master.So it was a little, but only a little bit of surprise, when Teseus appeared as his replacement. Teseus and the brute he brought with him were much higher in the Circle than Omar or Sargazzo. Omar was handed a scroll. Teseus smiled. A hint of pride showed at the corners of his mouth and in his eyes. Omar bowed and exited with Sargazzo.Lady Blue...the time had come. Omar's mind raced. Soon, he would face his toughest challenge. He must be prepared.</blockquote>
