Message: <blockquote data-quote="Telsar" data-source="post: 1574437" data-attributes="member: 18837">“Burglary” Madame Brie says.  “Definitely burglary”.  Her beady eyes scan the party.  “You’re quite an attractive group, aren’t you.  Well, most of you”  She looks a bit disappointed at Sunedilar… and looks especially pleased with Aeweth.  “If you’re more pretty than you are strong, I have better ways for you to make money.  But then again, if Dooley hasn’t slit your throats yet, you must be capable.”“What’s been stolen from me are three of my best girls, over the last 30 days or so.  First thing I… heh heh,  convince them about when they start working here, is that they aren’t going to leave.  But 30 days ago, the first girl ups and tells me she’s quitting.  After I tried to beat some sense in her, I realized she was under a spell.  I know a charm when I see one… hell, I’ve laid enough of them on people myself.  So I quit focusing on her and tried to track down who had done it.  Her last client was someone new, someone who’d never been here before.  I never did track him down.  But while I was searching, the stupid whore ran away.”Two weeks later, another girl runs away.  Now I’ve been watching the clients, just in case he came back, and her last client didn’t look the same at all, although he was new too, so I thought maybe the first girl’s departure was just inspiring some rebellion.  Well, a day spent downstairs…” when she says downstairs, the girls from the waiting room and Valasia noticeably flinch, “a day downstairs convinced them to mind.”“Then, 3 days ago, another girl… this one I know didn’t run on her own.  This one’s been here since she was 12, and wouldn’t know where to run to.  And again… the last guy she was seen talking to was someone totally new.  Either the guy responsible has a lot of people working for him, or he’s a doppleganger, or he’s an illusionist.”“They only clue I have is, yesterday one of our regular clients, a merchant, said he’d seen the first missing girl working the street over on Gorgon’s Way.  This client always had a thing for her, I’m not sure he told me everything.  Planned on having Alicia” she motions to the half-ogre “have a chat with him next time he’s due in, which is 2 days from now.”“So… think you can get my girls back?  And the head of this ass who’s sneaking around my place of business, stealing my hard-earned property… yeah, I want his head.”</blockquote>
