Swire looks the guano-smeared note over
“I don’t know where this depression is, but I’ve heard of the Verdigris seam. It’s a big thread of copper that runs through Gormoth-Moktor. We need to find a green cave entrance . Likely along the wall of this place.”
Swire returns from the far room with leather armor and weapons on. A haversack sits on his back. He looks over the party “Look, the past is the past. It’s no secret we rubbed each other the wrong way, but we worked together before and I fancy we can do it again. I’m ready to beat leather out of this Hardhead’s wet dream”
"Mr Swine!" Karrin exclaims, "We haven't seen you in ages!" “Not long enough, sadly,” Swire calls over his shoulder as he enters the far room
The wizard pulls out an ordinary belt dagger. "Do you need a loaner? Or did you manage to hold onto one of yours?" He smirks. Swire plucks the dagger out of Justin’s hands and flips it expertly several times to test its balance, then he looks around “I had gear with me. Including Kidneythief. I’m going to go looking for it while you find your missing bint “ He makes his way towards the large door at the end of the hallway
Swire smiles sourly “Why I was taking in the sights at this lovely vacation spot. Delightful, innit?”
Swire shrugs “I’ve nowt heard of any hardheads in the place, but there is a woman in here. I’m not sure which cell. I hope you have a plan to get out of here. “
"Oh thank Abadar! Thank you for ..." The man halts, squinting "You have got to be kidding me..."
Swire sneers "You lots idea of infiltration is to blast everything flat and sift the rubble for clues. If it was my call, I'd not pay. However, Ser Jad'Hammet is satisfied and it's his do." Swire stands up and adjusts his silken tunic. He looks to Renkar "Best of luck running this lot, Ser Sha'Hagmid. " He turns to the group "If you lot ever need to rustle up a spot of jink, my pawn shop is in Darkwell Court. I have reasonable rates. Look for the sign of the silver serpent." Swire grabs his sable-fur cloak off a wall peg and affixes it with a large silver Taker faction symbol. He stumps out to the Copper Cauldron's door and disappears into the thick fog outside
"Ah, the noble heroes arrive"
Swire huffs "I'm sure yeh can be brought up ta speed by Renkar. Good farings cutters." He nods to Renkar "I'll let Ser Jad'Hammet know that your crewe is back in the Cage. I'm sure he'll be expecting an update soon." Swire departs, his sable cloak swirling as he scuttles out of the door.
Mr. Swire looks at Karrin with his beady black eyes. Despite his fancy clothes, he still looks like a weasel. "I remember you lot were getting all wrapped up in 'side treks'. That's why I gave you the laugh an' headed back here. While you were gallivanting about on the Big Bark, I have been trying to save our comission with Jad'Hammet. Fortunately, I have landed a position working for him. I am now just a consultant for you lot, not an active member of your scruffy crewe."
"Heh. Speak O' the fiends, and they shall appear." |
