Message: <blockquote data-quote="Uriel" data-source="post: 510803" data-attributes="member: 8222">'I know not where the name derives from, or which option is implied in Silence, good Lady. I would assume that some Magic might be in use, as well as good old soundproofing. I only came across it when a friend at the Theatre mentioned that his cousin had done some of the work padding the room.' At this point two other men approach from the throng in the restaurant. One looks a Candaran man, slim and dressed immaculately in the clothes of the day, a very fashionable look. The other, a huge man looking every bit the Kelt that he is, with long red hair and beard, is dressed in a tradesman's clothes, although the studious will note that the shirt is a bit too tight, too unsoiled. As well, he looks about like a hawk, his hand straying for a weapon that isn't at his waist, though he looks as if he might not need one to hurt someone.The first man addresses Crolmyr,<ahem> 'Crolmyr, my friend, you are required at your home, there are some rewrites that need to be done, and, in light of the situation regarding the Imperium, perhaps we should...'The redheaded giant pushes him aside and blurts out in a thick Keltish accent 'Finneg..' he pales as Crolmyr's face blanches and continues,'Crolmyr,He has sent the Crellaigh, there are at least 3 in the City.' The man looks visibly agitated, and a bit worried, if not outright frightened.Crolmyr nods at this, his features taking on a resolute cast. 'Aye, tis time to call in a few favors and indebt m'self for a few more, it seems.Crolmyr catches his breath ' Rentus (to the thin man), please be so good as to deal with the rewrites on your own, you are a far better writer than I, my friend.'To the other Kelt,'We will discuss proper etiquette in public once we are bach Home, Conyll...' This causes the big man to take on an expression that makes the mention of the Crellaigh seem mild.'Yes,Si..boss.'The two men depart, the bigger one looking sheepishly chastised. Crolmyr addresses the group again, 'I am sorry for that intrusion, my Writer and one of my servants. A good fellow, if a bit Thick.He left the Imperium at the same time that I did, seeking more free lands. It seems that the Emperor seeks to diminish Freedom yet again, and that just will not do. Now, (pointing at Katarina, who stands near the bar and nods silently), I believe that our room has been made available. Shall we retire to discuss freely, where unwanted eyes and ears cannot follow?'Crolmyr stands and awaits the others.</blockquote>
