Master of Jade, Mistress of Iron - a World of Conclave adventure

[Maidhc O Casain]

Mal turns his green eyes on his client, regarding the man quietly for a long moment, before shifting his regard to Shem's accoster. "Right enough, sir; as his hired man it would reflect poorly on my skills were any harm to befall him while he's in my charge. So long as I get paid, anyone seeking to harm him will have to get past me." He looks back to Shem at this point. "Still, watching over a man who does not pay his debts doesn't appeal; let me know if Shem hasn't paid his debt to you on time, and I'll consider making this my last term of employ."

Hang sports an amusement smirk, clearly wishing to see where all this ends up.

 

[GlassEye]

Blue frowns. He knew this Shem was going to be troublesome but instead of interjecting he remains quiet. He scratches his ear and stands near Hang.

"No one needs to worry," says Shem without breaking his stride. "I'll have the money by tonight, Yun." He marches out through the gate to the tenement block. Once out of earshot of Yun, he turns to Mal.

"Most of my assets are tied up in investments of one kind or another," he says. "They're not particularly liquid. Plus, there are a couple of lowlifes who owe me money - can you believe the dishonesty of some people?" He pauses, as if the thought has only just occurred to him. "Say, maybe you could help me persuade them to pay up. You gentlemen have, um, a more imposing presence than I do."

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

The DaQan pulls the coin from his pouch once more, and tosses it into the air. He catches it deftly, examines the face presented him and turns back to Shem. "It seems that my Fates have decided I'm no one's shoulder-thumper, Shem. It's one thing to protect you from harm, another to threaten others on your behalf. Collect your own coin, and pay up your rent."

Blue Eye Bellows, shaman

Blue nods, approving of Mal's method of dealing with Shem's shadiness.

"Now, a bit of sleep would be a good idea before we have to go back to House Thurif this evening..."

Shem raises his hands and attempts a winning smile at Mal.

"Hey, no problem," he says. "I can respect that. It was worth a try. In which case, I need to go and liquidate some assets. I'll see you all later at House Turif." The little man turns and wanders off down the street, whistling to himself.

OOC: Unless there's anything else anyone wants to do at this point, I'll move things forwards to the meeting with Lacy C.

 

[Voda Vosa]

OOC: Hang is good to go

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Likewise Mal.
