[QUOTE="Express, post: 1647792, member: 19166"] [b]Enter the Dragoneye (con't)[/b] Business? I sat there trying to take a mental stock of the situation, now that I realized Runek wasn’t going to kill us. He knew Hennet, and it was his goons at Hennets place. I wondered where Voren was, and what happened to those goblins. I tried to figure Redblock’s angle on all this. His dislike of Koba seemed genuine. It didn’t seem like he was lying to us, but something didn't feel right about him. Maybe it was just his clothes- or that fact he talked so fast. Redblock was still talking, he was a regular chatterbox. I turned my attention back to him. “Like I said we might be able to help each other,” Redblock was looking at me “But, whatcha you want Hennet for? This bout money or revenge?” I informed him it wasn’t anything like that. Redblock poured another drink, and was actually quiet. He was thinking. “Doesn’t matter I suppose.” he mused. “If you agree to look into this Dragoneye thing , I can point you, how you say, in the right direction bout Hennet. Well?” Dorbo answered, echoing my unspoken sentiments. “We don’t do anything illegal.” The dwarf only guffawed. “Illegal? Stealin' from a thief or thwarting the plans of a murdererin goblin don’t really count as illegal, in my book. Its whatchacallit, poetic justice. I need some of that Medani quality work.” He pulled out a big velvet bag. It clinked. “We got a deal here?” I didnt trust Redblock; I looked over at Bynara to gauge her. She looked skeptical. However, fact was, except for Voren we had nothing on this case so far. In the back of my mind I was wondering what would happen if we refused. Bynara eyed the bag, “There was a man in the warehouse,” she asked, “the golbins had him. Where is he?” Redblock frowned. “Oh him? I hope we wasnta friend of yours. ‘Fraid he’s dead girl, just like the goblins. Them gobbos didnt have the good sense to give up like you, and went down to my warforged.

Well now we had no leads, and no Voren. I stood up. [I]May Dol Dorn protect us and The Keeper stay away.[/I] “Alright, we agree.We’ ll look into this Dragoneye business. Now what about Hennet?” The Boss jumped up and leaned across the desk, nearly bursting the buttons on his waistcoat. He had a happy look on his face, clasped my hand and began pumping it vigorously.
