As Tala and Toothpick walk to the Merchant's guild...
Tala slips Toothpick a scroll with a key
Toothpick frowns, but pockets the scroll and key.
Tala starts talking in Thieve's Cant
Tala: You'll find a letter of introduction within that scroll. You'll know who to present it to when the time comes.
Toothpick (whispers): Aye ...I kinda thought you were a bit "fly" lassie. My thnaks.
Tala smiles wickedly
Toothpick: So ... where do you really hail from ?
Tala: Here and there.
Toothpick: And this group ? A mark ... or boredom ? I know you freelance ... very brave, foolish ... but brave nonetheless.
Stuart (Toothpick): I'll read the scroll when I am alone, of course.
Tala: I'm leaning towards mark..though with that darkie..
Toothpick sniffs.
Toothpick: Very dangerous that one .. I wouldnae ... but ... we probably should get our boundaries straight, don't you
think ?
Tala: Absolutely
Tala: But now..I've got to rub this group. I've been called...elsewhere
Toothpick: I'll not interfere with your activities but mark me lassie and mark me well ... dinnae take me for a fool or
interfere with my interests.
Tala chuckles
Toothpick: I'll wish you good luck ... any may you always find a shadow when you need one.
Stuart (Toothpick): *and
Tala: Oh, I wouldn't be worrying too terribly much...I think you'll find I have some of your interests at heart as well
Toothpick nods curtly and continues on to the Merchant's Guild.
Tala: Oh...and btw...
Toothpick pauses but does not turn round.
Tala: Heed the key (chuckles some more and walks in a different direction)
