In Which Our Hero is reintroduced to some 'friends' from his past.
Kicking things off in the Dead Parrot Inn again, Marcus chats up Nawar, who explains the Wheel of Fortune and, um, well, lays it on a little thick again. Really thick. Thick and throbbing and..
Sorry.
Marcus then takes a little stroll around the Inn. Who is sitting in the corner but his old 'friend' Signor Ferrari, and his business associate Ugarte. Ferrari recognizes Marcus as well, and the two have a long 'conversation' about things in Silmaria. Seems like Ferrari didn't take kindly to how Zayishah decided to start running things in Raseir after she took over and quietly left town to set up shop here. He claims to be 'highly influential,' but how influential is that? Influential enough to engineer an assassination so that his little criminal empire might flourish? An interesting question, that.
Marcus then chats with Ugarte a bit, who instead of selling water claims to be selling rumors and secrets. Some things never change, it seems. We'll make a mental note of that for later.
Then it's off to the Inn for a bit of jumping on the bed, some sleep and some really really really awful puns courtesy of Ann. At least it's free to sleep there...
