"I'm going to go see what I can figure out you three stay here and make sure they don't leave"

John leaves the table and walks toward the Innkeeper

"Hi, I'm looking for someone who came in earlier today. she would have been wearing a chain shirt and carrying a pistol. I think she is staying in one of the luxury rooms. Would it be possible to get a room number?

"What are you looking for her for?" The innkeeper asks.

[Tantaburs]

"What are you looking for her for?" The innkeeper asks.

I think she is looking for a friend of mine. I overheard her talking to her friend outside.

[Morithias]

I think she is looking for a friend of mine. I overheard her talking to her friend outside.

"Ah interesting. Well I suppose it couldn't hurt. Room 17."

[Tantaburs]

"Thank you very much"

John leaves the front desk and returns to the others.

They are in room 17. I say we go up there and talk to them see what we can find out. then we can decide if we need to or even can detain them

[Lexin]

Lucas shrugs and says "Okay then, let's go..."

[ReaderAt2046]

"I'm coming," says Danil.

[Morithias]

"I'm coming," says Danil.

"I'll get a head start on them and head back to Oda." Lee says as he blitzes out of the tavern.

[Lexin]

"Have fun Lee!"
Says Lucas as they start walking upstairs. (Lucas as the squishy one is going 2nd or 3rd...)

[Tantaburs]

John leads the group to room 17

Okay remember we are just here to talk not to fight. There is no need to risk our safety or the safety of those in the hotel pointlessly.

John knocks on the door to room 17.

[Lexin]

"Of course we are not going to fight." says Lucas, preparing action to manifest Suggestion.

John knocks on the door to room 17.

The door opens. "Oh....hi...wasn't expecting visitors." She looks over her shoulder. "Hey Kiyoko, were you expecting anyone?" The other one yells back no. "Uh....this is awkward...what do you want? Need someone hunted down?"

[ReaderAt2046]

"More that we need someone not hunted down. Have you taken out a contract on Patricia? Or Morithias?"

[Morithias]

"More that we need someone not hunted down. Have you taken out a contract on Patricia? Or Morithias?"

"Wait, who?"

"They mean the scholar in Oda. I think...man we didn't even have a name."

The first turns back to the door. "Uh..this is awkward, but yes, the scholar who apparently took down Lord Vyce according to our research is in Oda, and our employer wants her brain on his side."

[Tantaburs]

"They mean the scholar in Oda. I think...man we didn't even have a name."

The person you speak of is a friend of ours. One that we have a interest in keeping safe. It may be wise for you two to find a new contract.

[Morithias]

The one sister turns back to the other one. "We can't hunt him, her, whatever now. People know a dragon put a hit on a civilian target. If we do the hunt, they'll tell, and the dragon will be punished. Our only choices are to kill these guys, or call it off."

"Hey, remember our rule, we don't kill people who haven't done anything yet. Defending a friend is just."

"True, so you guys want a drink? We got some leftover from our last hunt. Good stuff, we can talk a bit."

"I'll message the employer." She casts a sending spell. "Contacts of target found out. Calling off deal. Apologies." Then turns to you guys. "We're the Kuge sisters. We're bounty hunters. Specialize in taking down mages. We were surprised when we found out she was at the royal academy. It's very rare for a mundane to get involved in the great game."

[ReaderAt2046]

"Mori is a little bit of an exception to the rule. He was a small-time wizard until one of his spells did way more than bargained for. She ended up with knowledge of the location of every major dragon, and I don't know what-all else. That's why she was such a help for Lee."

"On a slightly more practical note, how do you guys feel about getting in on a bit of a bigger deal on the ground floor? We've got a project directly from Princess Teru herself to reclaim Takuga, and we're gathering power and support. People with your skill could be a big help."

[Lexin]

"Psst, we should avoid announcing to everyone every bit of information we have. ... Oh, nevermind already..." if sarcasm was a liquid, people downstairs would have free swimming lesson...

"Takuga is suicide, but we'll consider it." She turns to her sister. "What's our next target?"

"Well the necromancer we were suppose to take down got brought in, so our next target....we don't have one. Let's head to Oda anyways, and meet with this "Mori" if he, she, whatever, is as smart as they say, she probably knows a lot about the underworld, which we can use, hunt down some criminals. Clean up the streets."

"I assume you guys don't have any objections on THAT plan?" They ask.

[Lexin]

"Sounds good to me. Ah, and sorry about the necromancer business.

What types of jobs do you take by the way? Maybe we would be able to find something for you in the future..." He says with a small smile on his face.

"You pay, we hunt. Dead or Alive, information gathering, even just escort of information. We're hired guns, but we have a rule. We never harm the innocent. We were under the impression that the knowledge broker was a vassal, which puts her into fair game in the game, but if she's a citizen, that's outside of hunting grounds. You need to be a criminal or at least accused of something before we hunt."

"We focus on hunting dangerous game that common guard can't take care of. Mages, Dragons, Crime lords. Stuff that you need the best of the best for. It pays well, but we've both died at least twice in our lifetimes."

[Tantaburs]

This went far better then I could have imagined. I would like to thank both of you for your understanding in this matter. Lucas, Dan feel free to continue your converstaion with these two I think i'll head back downstairs.

"I guessed that, which is why I hoped you might be interested in Takuga. There's no challenge greater than demons. But if you aren't interested, that's fine too."

As far as you can tell they're legit.

"We'll consider Takuga, but you'll need to make quite an offer to get use on board. I'm sure Teru could afford our prices, but you're not one to speak for her wallet. Either way we're going to Oda, we might be able to get more information there."

[ReaderAt2046]

"Lord bless you and keep you." Danil makes a blessy gesture in their direction.

"We sort of are. Teru already pledged a big chunk of money to this project, though we don't yet know what we'll want it for. Can you give me a business card or something in case I want to get back to you later?"

[Morithias]

"Business...card?" She looks confused for a second. "Uh...okay." She takes a piece of parchment and writes "Kuge sisters" on it. "Like this?"

[ReaderAt2046]

"Something with instructions on how to contact you if we wanted to hire you."

[Morithias]

"Something with instructions on how to contact you if we wanted to hire you."

"Uh...cast a message spell using our names?" She seriously getting confusion. "We don't a base of operations..."

[ReaderAt2046]

"Oh, Okay, thanks. Sorry to confuse you."
