SAM: Did she come through here? MATT: "She was the last one to hire the mistress. About a week before you came." TALIESIN: (sighs heavily) SAM: What was the job? MATT: "I don't know." SAM: And she had some fellows traveling with her?
MATT: "She had five individuals following her, aye." MARISHA: What did they look like? MATT: "Didn't get the best good look. Kept it very hush-hush between me and the lady at the table. "Rest of them stayed at the back of the bar. Then they went on their business." SAM: Where were they staying? MATT: "Here." SAM: In our rooms? MATT: "Aye." SAM: That gives me the heebie-jeebies https://oncasinogames.com/canada/blackjack/. TALIESIN: That does not make me feel good. She is so dangerous. MARISHA: How was she a full week ahead of us? LAURA: Oh shit. Treev-- SAM: Because we went to Draconia. LAURA: I put Dust of Tracelessness on the ground. In her home. MATT: "What's that mean?" TALIESIN: It's going to obfuscate any of the scuffle. They're only going to find a body with holes in it. MATT: "So you're telling me that you came in here with a story about a murder of one of my finest mercs." TALIESIN: Yes. MATT: "And you decided upon finding this murder to get rid of all the evidence of said murder and "anything that could possibly point to you not being the murderers." TALIESIN: I did point this out to everybody before we came down here, but at the moment we were a little bit thrown by the dead woman. MATT: "I'm not going to lie, I mean as far as--" LIAM: Why would we come directly to you if that were the case? Why wouldn't we have not just left? LAURA: Plus, you know what? TALIESIN: They will be able to tell the body is at least a week old. LAURA: Exactly. Your man has seen a dead body before. He's going to be able to tell that it's been there for a while. MARISHA: I'm sure you have a cleric in the circle. Talk to her firsthand if you have to. LIAM: I'm curious if you can imagine a reason why we would come to you with this rather than sneak away in the night. TRAVIS: Yeah, I'm just curious how much the mead is? MATT: "On the house." He reaches under the bar and pulls up one thick, dark, red ceramic bottle. Cap's already off. He's plucked it off with his thumb and sets it in front of you. TRAVIS: My thanks. TALIESIN: I'm so sorry. MATT: "Guess it's possibly one of the major setbacks of this line of business. Very few grow "too old and gray and get to die happy in their beds. God knows I wasn't planning to." There's a long, awkward pause interspersed with bits of conversation for about 15 minutes before the hooded figure returns, enters the door, comes over and whispers for a good solid minute in the ear of Treev, before stepping back and calmly walking back to its corner. Treev sits up. "Well, parts of "your story certainly hold up. The body has been there for a while, at least from before I saw you. "Mind you, I don't know when you came into town. We only met a few days ago." TALIESIN: If we were smart enough to take care of her and smart enough to pull all of this off, this would be a ridiculous move. LAURA: (laughs) That we would come to hire her after we had already-- MARISHA: Killed her? TALIESIN: I would beg you to explain why we're having this conversation. MATT: "Oh, believe me. A lot of you doesn't make sense, period. So I'm just trying to figure it all "out." And he rubs the end of his long draconian snout. TALIESIN: The woman in question helped murder my entire family, took great pleasure and delight in it. I have been tracking her for years. MATT: "What you plan to do when you find her, then?" TALIESIN: Kill her. That's all. I've lost my taste for anything beyond that, but she is dangerous and she is evil. LIAM: In this moment, everyone in this room wants the same thing. MARISHA: We didn't come to you because we necessarily needed to go through the proper channels, we did it because we were trying to be forthcoming. Clearly you are all a talented bunch, so are we. TALIESIN: My feelings for her have become very complex. I don't care who kills her at this point. She just needs to be removed from the earth. MATT: "Which one of you is your dealmaker?" LIAM: I boot Scanlan forward on the tush. SAM: Hello, hi. MATT: "This one?" SAM: I make the best deals, I know the best words. MATT: "This one?" SAM: Sometimes it's Vex, but many times it's me. MATT: He leans over the bar and gets real close up to you, and takes a moment to (sniffs). "Aye, you "smell like trouble. I like that." Make a persuasion check. SAM: What am I persuading him to do? MATT: This is your essence of presence and telling him that you're the kind of person that-- SAM: Oh, my general charm? MATT: Your general charm. TALIESIN: I don't know what he's wearing, but it's very nice. SAM: Persuasion, you say? 29. MATT: "How is this for a deal? I got a nice fine look at your faces, I got friends all across these "lands. If what you say is true, you go. We let you leave. You find this murdering bitch, you kill "her. I want one thing, her good hand. I think that would be vengeance enough for the mistress." MARISHA: I mean, we don't have any use for it. TALIESIN: I feel very good about that deal. LIAM: Good terms. MATT: "Not talking to you. I'm talking to you." SAM: That's lovely, but we can't find her without some assistance. MATT: "Well, you've come to the right place. What assistance do I have to give you, what do you need?" SAM: We need to get this curse off of the thing that found your assassin. MATT: "Can't really help you with that, sorry, mate."
