"Well met, and I appreciate your hospitality" Allard started as he introduced himself as he took a seat with the two, "My name is Adelhard Baldewin. I've been living here for a few years making a living off of odd jobs and 'tidying up' a particular tavern I frequent." He raised an eyebrow as one of the working girls passed by with the drinks and made a sheepish grin as he gladly accepted his with a quick thanks. "As for why I'm here I must be honest with you, I was requested by the owner of that tavern to come here and give this a shot. After some though I believed that this may be a prime opportunity to settle a few, uh, [i]debts[/i] I presume is a good word for it." After taking a sip of his drink he thought about other cut-throat merc groups he had head of before, as well as some he has got into fights with. There was one thing he had to know before even thinking about joining this group: their ethics, sense of morality, a code of honor of sorts. He wanted to make sure it wasn't just another group of organized brigands looking for the next purse to cut. "There is one question that I must ask of you, however, before we begin anything. If you don't mind me asking, what is the nature of this ensemble of mercenaries? I'll have no part in deeds of the nefarious sort."
