[QUOTE="michael_noah, post: 3277753, member: 40131"] Konstantine's attempts to gather some information about Durbenford are incredibly fruitful. He comes upon an unsavory fellow crying the local news who immediately accosts him thusly, [color=brown]"Ah, there! You're not from around here, you must certainly need someone to show you around! I'm Shubryn, pleased to meet you."[/color] While it's obvious that paying the fellow to show you around would be worthless, it's easy enough to draw a large amount of information from him by stringing him along for a short time. [color=brown]"Those two halflings you were talking to work for the Fat Man, you'd better watch out around them. They won't be up to too much trouble, though, for everyone's talking about the fact that Prince Geoffrey is planning a visit. I don't know why, but my guess is that it's to check up on Lord Durben and all the troubles around here. The biggest one, of course, is that there's an entire nation of giants on the other side of the Kal'lugus mountains ready to invade. Good ole' Durben sure ticked off someone. As far as that goes, Master Orin knows more about the mountains, and old castle Durbin, than anyone else. "You know, those kids wouldn't be so keen to rob folks if the poor quarter was better off. The whole reason it's so out of control is Durben's perverse fancies. That and the Fat Man, he's behind most of the crime. He's got competition, now, though. The Grey Rook Guild have set up shop and aren't too shy. "If you're looking for some real info, though, you should talk to Juptal. He's an old hermit, lives near the lake. He's been here as long as the town, 'least that's what I say."[/color] [/QUOTE]
