Message: <blockquote data-quote="Telsar" data-source="post: 1578777" data-attributes="member: 18837">Loni seems relaxed beside Accalon, much more so than when they first met.  “I’m afraid my skills couldn’t begin to make up for 3 missing girls, but I thank you for the compliment. All three were… touched in the head or something.  I heard the first say that she had found a better calling, whatever that meant.  Brie couldn’t find out what she meant either, even after some terrible persuasion.  And then she ran off… Madame Brie is sure that a john cast a spell on her.  Then another girl ran off.  And a few days ago, Missandra ran away.  She’s been here longer than just about anyone.  And I didn’t tell Madame Brie this, but before she left, Missy, I mean, Missandra, told me that she was 'going to be richer than anyone she's ever known', those were her exact words.  I haven’t told Madame Brie… if she found out I knew Missy was acting funny and didn’t tell before she left…”  She shudders, leaving the sentence unfinished.Downstairs, the aging goblin tells Gwyn, “There isn’t much of anything they have in common.  The first girl, Miri, is short, about twice my height [putting her about 5 foot tall], with short black hair, 18 years old.  The second was Jeleneth, tall, wavy dark hair with light streaks, 24 or so.  And last was dear Missandra, she’s…”, after some calculation in her head, “29, that’s right.  Somewhat tall, very long blond hair, down to her ass.  Dumb as an illithid victim, but that’s a quality a lot of clients look for.”  She adds, “If these 2  are staying here,” referring to Lydia and Aeweth, “ I’ll try and find something upstairs they can wear that will let them blend in better.”And at the Rusty Guts, Rusty looks conflicted on what he should tell the dwarf.  “Aligor, even if I had a problem, not all’o’us need things solved with a bloody axe.”  Suddenly, the door bursts open, and two young men come in, both brown haired and close enough in appearance to be brothers.  But one is a bit taller than the other, and he does the speaking.  “Rusty, whatcha doing open?  We came to deliver this message; if we knew you’d be here, we wouldn’t have had to get our hands bloody.”  The other brother opens a sack, and dumps what appears to be a dead, black cat on one of the other tables.  He then pulls out a long thin dagger with some kind of symbol on it, and pins the cat to the table with one downward jab.  “If you had seen this in the morning, you would have known what it meant, right?  Get rid of the dwarf and we can talk about what you owe Hex.”Rusty gets up, apparently very upset “You tell yer boss what I owe ‘im is a fat lip!”  He rolls up his sleeve.  “If ya need me to show ya what one looks like so you can tell ‘im, then lets get to it”.  But the two young men draw short swords, and Rusty’s usual weapon, a hefty crowbar, is 10 feet away at the bar.[Combat will more than likely begin next post, unless Aligor just leaves or talks them out of it <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> .Initiatives:Aligor  16Thugs   14Rusty    8]</blockquote>
