Red caps are mischievously murderous relatives of leprechauns. Downer protest that he is a sneak and doesn't want to stomp around in a giant iron boot.  The xorn protests back, that Downer can go back his medusa's sculpture garden if he wants a better fit and remarks that Downer used to bring in many good pieces.  Downer agrees to take the red cap boot.  Meanwhile Aristide admires a project of the xorn's that is either undead or a golem (looks like a mummy with ruby eyes).  The xorn says it is a private commission and to mind your own business.As the newly shod Downer clomps his way to an inn with Aristide, Aristide reminds him that Downer will have to go home to get the money he owes.  Downer says he knows and reminds Aristide not to say anything about the demise of Manglecramps.   As they enter the bar Downer, shouts out to the murderous looking mixed crowd, that anyone with anything clever to say about his new boot is going to get a good look at it upside their head.The lizardman bartender replies that someone is waiting for Downer in the corner, who calls himself the Needleman.  The Needleman is a dark stalker who is surrounded by a group of dark creepers (so this may be the very boss Downer instructed the creepers who were carrying the ulolok to go see).  The Needleman has a harpoon sized needle...complete with thread  is a gaunt menacing figure.to be continued</blockquote>
