Selene Riovas, she said her name was from mild eavesdropping. How rude, and she was quite so intently studying her sister. Livia frowned a slightly as the Tiefling, Darc addressed her. Why must her sister always seem to draw everyone's attention? Made her want to vomit. At least the obvious demonspawn in front of her was mildly interesting. What even [i]was[/i] he? A Tiefling of some sort, but he lacked a face at all. Intriguing, to say the least. Smooth talker too, judging from his words - and more than a little friendly. Overly so. At least he was transparent about his desires to return a favor for a favor instead of wasting time with honeyed words and thinly veiled treats. [color=a187be]"Well,"[/color] Livia took the vile of snake venom, observing it as Darc finished. It was refreshing to meet a seemingly mildly reasonable person after dealing with that...whatever that was on the way here. [color=a187be]"My 'trust' as you say is a little harder to earn then just a free vial of snake venom, but you're certainly on the right path. A pleasure indeed, Darc."[/color] She smiled faintly. A partnership? Now that was certainly an enticing offer, but she wasn't about to leap without looking a little first. [color=a187be]"You'd be correct in assuming the welcome has been less than pleasant. The orcs were quite...difficult to deal with, and finding my way here was no small feat."[/color] She cast a grimace over to the kid still sitting at the bar. [color=a187be]"And I have a feeling we were being expressly messed with."[/color] Putting the vial of Snake venom in some of her various belt pouches, Livia returned to the matter at hand. [color=a187be]"...but such things are a learning experience. Now what exactly can you offer me from this 'partnership'? Aside from the pleasure of your company, of course."[/color] [hider=Livia's Inventory] -bottle of black ink -quill -small knife -set of Fine Clothes -signet ring -scroll of pedigree -Soul gem Dagger -The book “Frothy Tales of Conquest” -1lb Kafei seeds - 1 Vial of Snake Venom Money: 4gp & 4SP Max carry weight: 135lbs [/hider]
