Now, I'm sure we've done something like this before sometime ago, but you know how it is; people come, people go, and we get new faces all the time. So it's a little hard to keep track of y'all sometimes.

But here we are, and I've god a question.

There's a good lot of us that got magic in us before ALASTAIR made, ah, any offerings as such. Maybe even got some magic in your world, sure.

Suffice it to say, I got some interest in what kind there is -- and what magic is like where you're from. How it works. The variety, the limits.

Always good to know about the trade elsewhere, as it were.

Basically.

[ if it takes jesper a bit of time to respond it's because he's trying not to freak out, oops ]

Nah, I have a friend who is, she was in the Ravkan army as a kid and everything. But she's a heartrender, she can control your pulse and kill people really easily, so it makes sense that they'd scout her early.

[fateality]

[The pause in the response just might be telling enough -- but he isn't going to hound Jesper for the truth. Far as he can figure, the hand's already been played.]

Damn, no kiddin'! That's one intense skill. Any army would want that; too bad the choice was outta her hands, though.

[endeudado]

[ Jesper is so good at this incognito thing, isn't he. ]

Yeah, healers and heartrenders are especially valued because of that. I mean, she loves her job don't get me wrong. She's in the intelligence gathering business. People get really loose lipped when you mess with their pulse, apparently.

[fateality]

Heh, who knew?

She still servin' the army, or was she able to leave?

[endeudado]

She seems to enjoy it, though I don't know all the details. She's not-surprisingly good at keeping secrets.

[ There's a pause here for a shrug. ]

But I guess you could say she's "on leave."

[fateality]

[He chuckles.]

Well. Good for her, then.

So, what do you do back home then?

[endeudado]

[ Nina Zenik would wreck Audentes single-handedly, pretty much. ]

Crime, mostly. I'm in a gang called The Dregs.

[ He's so proud of it, too. ]

[fateality]

Aw, I remember what it's like bein' in a crew. So I take it you an' Kaz were perpetually up to no good?

[Not that he's judging. Far, far from it.]

[endeudado]

You could say that. Kaz is the one in charge, I'm the gang's best sharpshooter.

[ At 17, that's definitely a brag. ]

[fateality]

That's quite the claim. How many of you are sharpshooters?

[endeudado]

There's a couple of other guys, but I'm the only one that never misses.

[ It's because you have magic, don't kid yourself, Jesper. ]

[fateality]

I'll keep your skills in mind, smiley. I'm not one to overlook a fellah that never misses.

[endeudado]

You got it, old man.

[ Don't think he has forgotten... ]

Keep in mind that I don't work for free, but all you have to do is get in touch with Kaz if you ever need me.

[fateality]

I'd never expect either of you two to work for free. I assure you, if I have need for such skills, I'll gladly pay for it.

[endeudado]

Smart man.

[ So many people in Audentes seem to offer their skills for free, it's kind of crazy?? ]

I'll look forward to your business, then.
