At a nod from Rancid, Vaja looks at Wyleck with surprise then mutely juts out her right hand to accept Wyleck's eight gold crowns. "Ye've bought yerself a friend, it seems, Rancid." The blonde barkeep pockets Wyleck's coins and, satisfied, nods first at Rancid then at Wyleck. "My thanks. Consider the debt paid, Rancid. But ye'll no run a tab in the 'Trice again." With that, Vaja curtly turns from Wyleck's place at the bar and returns to the bar's end, where she joins Frane in washing clay ale tankards. The pair whisper together and Frane grunts in Wyleck's direction with a nod of approval.
For his part, Rancid looks shiftily around the room then extracts what appears to be a wand crafted of smooth lusterless black metal. At fully fourteen inches in length, the wand causes Rancid a small degree of consternation as he fights, largely unsuccessfully, to discretely pull out the wand from the inside of his billowy shirt sleeve. Once out, Rancid places the black wand on the bar and, with one hand placed protectively across the middle of the black wand, offers, "I don't want to be long in anyone's debt you see. What's this favor you're wanting? Or kin I offer you healing johnny on the spot, like, good Sir?" Wyleck notes that the wand only seems to be over a foot long--really, it looks as if someone has affixed a ten inch piece of ebony to the tip of a very short piece of the lusterless black metal.
