"For such a talented entrepreneur,you really have no tact.Thane's friend just scored us that bounty,while your'friends'are nowhere to be found.I could have let the Guard have their way with him,but it wouldn't have been polite."
The pair located the tavern where they were supposed to meet with the spymaster.It was busy inside.Mercurio scanned the crowd but couldn't make out any familiar faces.They found a deserted table in a shady corner.
Skeeve glowered into a mug of ale."Well,what now?"
