[hr][center][h2][color=8493ca]Tempum City (K7), Night at the Docks[/color][/h2][/center] [hr][quote=@Spin The Wheel] ... Mougin snorted. Well, he couldn't exactly say no to that, could he? Not with his current financial situation. [color=007236][b]"Lead the way, and I will listen."[/b][/color] He said to the man. It wouldn't hurt to hear what he had to say afterwards, surely. [/quote][hr] The festivities were still going at full blast, as Mougin and this wealthy new character walked to the restaurant he claimed to own. Along the way, the man introduced himself properly, [color=8493ca]"My apologies, I've been all business. My name is Conner Silum. What is your name?"[/color] Mougin responded with only his first name. [color=8493ca]"Well Mougin, what is your favorite kind of food?"[/color] Mougin's response was vague, along the lines of [i]"anything works for me"[/i]. The short answer didn't slow Mr. Silum in the least. He pressed a button on the side of his neck, and began speaking with someone unseen. [color=8493ca]"Rudy, I have a guest."[/color] After a moment of silence Mr. Silum continued. [color=8493ca]"He is beastfolk, vegetarian I believe. Whip something good up for him, and I'll have my usual."[/color] In another moment of pause, Mr. Silum looked over at Mougin and smiled, but when he spoke, he turned back to the sidewalk ahead. [color=8493ca]"Yes, thank you."[/color] The entire walk, from the docks to the beachside restaurant, took about ten minutes. The restaurant was packed with party goers, but the two avoided this by entering through a back door. The smell of delicious food greeted them as entered. The clinking and clanking of dishes could be heard at the other end of a short hallway on their right; that was the direction to the kitchen. They, however, kept walking straight, through a single door, and into a small empty dining room. [color=8493ca]"Please take a seat."[/color] Mr. Silum said, motioning to the table. There were a number of different sized chairs circled around the table. Mr. Silum went straight to a medium sized one at the head of the table. The largest chair, halfway down the table from where he sat, was already pulled out. Cutlery was placed in front of it, along with a large, pitcher sized glass of water. Mere moments after taking their seats, a man in a white kitchen uniform entered the room, pushing a cart of food. He placed one covered dish in front of Mr. Silum and three covered dishes in front of Mougin. [color=8493ca]"Let's eat first, then talk."[/color] Mr. Silum said, after a quick nod of thanks to the man that delivered the food. The two ate in silence for about fifteen minutes. Mr. Silum's plate was filled with seafood and vegetables, while Mougin's large dishes were a variety plates: one of vegetables, one of fruits, and one with warm pastries. Setting down his fork and knife, Mr. Silum got straight to business. [color=8493ca]"In short, I need your help doing exactly what you've been doing all day. In about forty five minutes from now, one of my boats will be arriving with some heavy and quite precious cargo. We'll need to have it unloaded and into my warehouse as quickly as possible. With your help, things should go quite smoothly."[/color]
