"A sister?! Rynald exclaims and his eyes go wide when Odette makes an off-hand remark to Sister Ciaran. Oh, I don't want any trouble with the Sisterhood! Praise the Emperor! Take it! Take any thing you want! His fellow collectors do the same and make way for the group.
Rynald considers Odette's offer for a moment. well you did seem to fix yours up proper. And you handled that smelt rat. Those rats are a menace and have prevented me from doing some maintenance on the automated gun implacement controls buried under some junk in the back. A whole nest of them rats are back there. Go clear em out and fix the defenses and I'll let you go, I might even throw in a little extra
Rynald strokes his chin with a smile as he looks over the group and repeats Sister Ciaran's words"A favor for a favor eh? Tell you what, I lost a lot of good men tonight. You grab their Oath Cogs and dial them in for 24hours of service, and I will let you have all the parts you can carry." Common Lore: Askelion Sector -10/or Commerce +10-can roll both if have both.:
You know that what Rynald is suggesting is technically illegal, though not unheard of. Usually an Oath Cog is issued to an individual and only select persons within the guilds are allowed to adjust them. He must have a reason to risk angering the merchant guilds and the Oaths Bondsmen. Rynald looks at Volc and shakes his head no as he steps aside and reveals tables full of gear and Lho Sticks layed out, some now covered in blood and gore. As the negotiations are taking place, bodies of the fallen are being stripped by scavengers and Collectors. The corpses are being piled onto a wooden buggy, driven by Cyber-Equines.
A moment later there is a chime at the gate, like an old grandfather clock chiming noon, or midnight. The gate opens and more Collectors come in, these ones are armed significantly better. They begin to take defensive positions around the gate and the cat-walks along the main wall. "'bout time t'all be showin. Get to the getting to!" Ryland calls out to the new arrivals changing to Low Gothic with some Mercenary Cant thrown in. His eyes remain on Odette.
Odette:
You find some surprisingly fine pieces for your Servo Skull, increasing it to a good quality item. It will take you only 15mins to fix due to your degree of aptitude. Rynald eyes Odette Hold on there missy, if you are going to do scrapin' in my junk yard, you best be able to pay for it!
The man who spoke up before stands up. He is a large man, and the rest of the people in the junk yard seem to get out of his way when he moves towards the group. He navigates the pile of junk with ease. He begins to speak in High Gothic with a thick local accent.
