[QUOTE="Carlo-One, post: 7818871, member: 7015827"] Janatha arrived mid-morning at the guest house with a breakfast tray and was greeted by Brok-Tul, who then went upstairs to rouse Aerikoth. The half-orc discovered the mage, along with his excited-looking raven familiar Zeluth, reading a small note. Aerikoth explained that it appeared Jamal wanted to have a word with them; the note read "Rising Raven Annex, upstairs, sundown." Joining the others at breakfast, Aerikoth and Brok-Tul shared the news about Jamal. While eating, Marik apologized about missing the encounter with Istvan, saying he had been contacted by two of his sources with time-sensitive information. He said the source who claimed to have information on the Sembian murder was a bust, but that the other source had urgent information on the Sembian gem transaction. The buyer's name was Wale Thynn, an Archendale merchant staying at the Jolly Warrior along with two armed guards. [I](It occurs to me that perhaps Marik was employing some of his street smarts in deliberately avoiding participation in the assault on Istvan, while making further plans to heist the gem. --C)[/I] Jandrico Swift knocked on the guest house door and let himself in. Brok-Tul met him and was asked if Aerikoth was available. Brok-Tul returned to the common room, sending Aerikoth out to meet Jandrico. Aerikoth then returned to the room and asked if the party planned on meeting Jamal that eve; everyone agreed on this.
