"Well, Morris is the man to deal with your booty. He has the connections, always did, as I recall. Your bird certainly isn't the best companion for fighting in the down-below...as far as a pup, if you want one quickly, then you'll either want to see one of the menageries out in the festival ground, or talk to the Thane's Master of Hounds. He is a Brother of the Oak, so he may be willing to help you. I can go see, while you rest up, and say goodbye to brave Polly, if that's what you want to do."[sblock=Jillian]As night falls, Jillian approaches the Granite Badger, intent on meeting her contact, who keeps a table there, most nights.  She suspects that Greem has some connection with Morris, the owner of the Badger, but if so, it's been kept quiet enough that she's never had any real proof of it.  Greem is there when she arrives, and welcomes her with his usual somewhat greasy smile. "Hello there, Jillian. I'm afraid we've had a slight change of plans."  Before she can really react to that, a man takes a seat beside her.  It's rather odd, since the man makes no appearance of moving in a hurry, but nonetheless he is seated before she can move.  He doesn't look especially prepossessing, or dangerous, dressed like a mildly prosperous merchant. In fact, he looks like somebody's kindly uncle.  "Good evening, Mistress Wolfrunner. My name is Haversham. Greem here says that you are quite the talent, in your line of work. Unfortunately, he is going to be out of circulation for a time."  Greem looks a bit nervous, even sheepish at that, but says nothing.  Haversham continues, his voice remaining quite mild, without any hint of threat in it. "Since your buyer won't be available to purchase your goods, I'd like to offer you the opportunity to both avoid joining him in the gaol, and to serve the Crown of Avonleigh, in a small matter. In fact, you'll have a bit of coin to jingle about, should you agree."[/sblock]</blockquote>
