[QUOTE="Bulsarra, post: 1050987, member: 5224"] [B]Xyffor[/B] Zaka and the others markedly ignore your orders, folding their arms and looking smug. They begin to advance on you as Merghas begins speaking. "I'm terribly sorry," he says, though his tone doesn't indicate that he is, "but such a transaction as this requires quite some time to negotiate and our partner in this business isn't going to feel secure unless he has some...collateral." Tutta, who had been watching Merghas's wizard inspect the crates, turns back to you. As he does so, you see the wizard pocket something (it looks like a small pouch) from the crate. "Are you saying that your man is unwilling to be a hostage?" Tutta asks. "Or is this some pawn that you can dispose of without a thought? Because, Merghas, I've never found these arrangements satisfactory." "I assure you," Merghas replies smoothly, "that he is not only completely loyal but an intregal part of our operation. Just ask him and he'll tell you so." But before you can answer your attention is distracted by movement in the alley between the warehouses that line up along the docks. Whatever is happening, it's to far away for you to tell exactly what's going on, but you sense that there's violence occuring and you think there might be someone set up on top of one of the warehouse's roof, readying an arrow.
