Rahnee for her part was clearly in a bad mood, mostly being unhappy at the prospect of meeting with the seneschal - an event which had lost its original purpose, in her mind. She decided to take out her frustrations on one of the guest house’s common room chairs, hurling it against the wall with great force, sending splinters flying, then stormed out.Later that morning, Jokull returned to find the companions regrouped in the common room. With the destroyed chair set to one side, they were discussing plans for the encounter with Hull at the Blue Banner. Aerikoth excused himself from participating in the meeting with the Seneschal, explaining that he believed he had not been linked by House Bleth to the group, and in any case had his own approach to the Bleths planned for Uktar 13. Rahnee indicated that Jokull would accompany her in his role as a bodyguard. Brok-Tul and Marik planned to try the back door to the Blue Banner, in the hopes of finding an alternate way of entering the building.At the Blue Banner, Rahnee found Seneschal Hull awaiting her at a corner table with a fine bottle of sherry. Formally polite, although not unfriendly, Hull inquired as to the business of Clan Roaringhorn in Westgate. Rahnee said that her family was interested in obtaining business connections in the city and would be willing to offer the services of a small group of mercenaries, Clan Roaringhorn's business specialty, to House Bleth in return for future assistance. Hull found the offer interesting, at least worthy of an eyebrow raise, and inquired about the monetary compensation involved and what sort of future favors Rahnee would require. Rahnee in response was noncommittal, indicating that any future favors would be in line with services rendered to Bleth.Switching subjects, Hull suggested that perhaps Rahnee could be of more immediate assistance, asking if she had been at the Quivering Thumb arena the previous night. When she answered in the affirmative, mentioning that she had met Mercenaries Guild leader Palla the White there, the seneschal revealed that Senthur Signe, the deputy chief of the Sembian Representative office, had been attacked and killed after departing the Quivering Thumb. Hull was interested in hearing if Rahnee had observed anything unusual related to Senthur’s presence that night, inside or outside the arena. Rahnee said that she knew nothing about it, other than that Senthur had made some disparaging comments about others in the arena.Hull switched back to discussing Rahnee's offer of a group of mercenaries, inquiring if she had any local references or had worked for the Westgate mercenaries guild. He mentioned that Westgate suffered from a surfeit of mercenaries and that one could not be too careful in selecting them. Rahnee indicated her group had not worked for the guild and commented that this was sometimes a useful quality. Thanking Hull for his time and his sherry, Rahnee then took her leave, with Hull wishing her well and stating she would be welcome to arrange a future appointment, should she have anything of interest to offer House Bleth.</blockquote>
