The Enemy Within

[Dr Simon]

[Sblock=OOC]
It's some time in the small hours of the morning. Josef has offered for you to sleep on his barge. Aaryn knows that Tileans come from Tilea, a nation of warring city-states, merchants and artists, to the south. Also, any Italian stereotyping you can think of.

[Insight]

Hans will also accept the offer to stay on the houseboat. He finds this a good place to "hide out" for the time being and an easily defensible place in case someone decides to "investigate" us further.

At Josef's barge, Aaryn is fairly straightforward and to the point. "Tileans," he begins slowly, "What do you know of them?" After hearing what Josef has to say, he begins his meditative trance on the deck of Josef's ship, preferring to be outdoors.

 

[FourMonos]

Garold is quite happy to stay on Joseph's barge. He is interested in Joseph's response to Aaryn's question.

 

[Dr Simon]

"Not much," says Josef. "They make good wine and lousy beer. I had heard that some Tilean racketeers had pretty much taken over the black market down in Kemperbad. There's a big duty on Marienburg brandy, see, so there's plenty of money to be made in a bit of smuggling. Don't see why that should bother us, though. All my cargo's legit." He winks at Garold. "For a change!"

"Anyway, we'll be off to Bogenhafen at daybreak, so we'll leave these crazy Altdorfers behind."

Gorim Grimmson

Gorim looks suspiciously at Josef.
"Never said I wanted to leave Altdorf. I still need to get an answer from a certain noble."

[Dr Simon]

Josef looks a little confused.

"What noble is that, Master Gorim? Not those two from last night? They ain't worth the bother."

 

[Walking Dad]

Gorim shows Josef the parchment with the job-offer for non-dwarfs. "This one!"

Aaryn nods slowly and silently.
