"Th-thank you..." she stammers.She curls up into a ball and steadies herself. So small, Darian notes. From her tight position, Suki speaks. "Brass? That was a name in the book, right? Alek sent me over to Edditomas a couple nights ago. Something about 'payment,' he said, but added that I needed to get his journal over to him while Edditomas slept. Edditomas told me to go upstairs. I looked around and found his journal."Suki looks up, an uncharacteristic smile of satisfaction on her face. "Edditomas' room, upstairs? Smells great."She inhales deeply and continues. "Anyway, I'm waiting upstairs, when I hear the door slam downstairs. This customer, storms in and starts shouting at Edditomas. He starts shouting about how he just learned that he's behind the love crystal. Goes on for ten minutes about how the crystal is destroying the Clocktower district, how dare he create such a monstrosity, and he can't believe that he has business with such a man. Edditomas said he works for everyone in the district, and that he still has the boiler plans for him. The shouting customer stops a moment, silent, and proclaims that he can't afford to be late, everything will be all right anyway, and storms out just as loudly as he came in."Suki shakes her head. "I got to see who it was out of the higher window. He had this red beard, blueprints under his arm. I think it was the clockmaker."</blockquote>
