But he doesn't talk about it.  Not ever.Since the war's end, he's back in Sharn, putting on some weight and trying to make a living.  He's been doing some freelance work, mainly as a delver and tracker, and mainly for House Tharashk.  He's diligent, thorough, and discrete, and he's making a bit of a name for himself.  There's been some indication that the higher-ups in Tharashk might be interested in hiring him on full time, but Gully's not sure he's interested.  He's thinking maybe he's had enough of belonging for a while.</blockquote>
