*From a dark and dingy corner of the Inn's bar and shadow figure spoke.* "The School is closed you'd be wasting your time." *The voice was gravaly and husky this combined with the fact that only a silowet of the voices owber could be seen made it seem like a voice from beynd the grave.* [ModNote: Last seen in Replenishment.]

*Lady Mercury spins in the direction of the voice and marches over* "What exactly do you mean?!" She hissed "The school is closed?! When did this happen?" *her blue eyes smoulder dangerously as she looks at shadow voice, her fists clenched*

*The Figure mearly took something from his robes, the seconds later there was the sound a match strikeing and a small flame flickerd into life and traveld up to the shadows face and the cigeret that was pertruding from the mouth that looked more like it had been cut into the face with a dagger and for a few breif seconds the figures face became semi-clear. Then just as quickly the flame died and once again Lady Mercury was conversing with but a dark shadow.*
*Something about his apprence sent chills up and down Lady Mercury's spine. She didn't know weather it was his manner, his cold voice or the seemingly Lifless pitch Black eyes that she had looked directly into when his face had been iluminated by the match.*
*Shadow Voice drew on his cigeret and then blew the smoke in to Lady Mercurys face.*
"I meen what I say. The Boarding School is closed and has been since the local council and Justice Of The Peace delcerd the building to be a safty hazzord and condemed it."

*attempts to hide the fact that the smoke has made her eyes water* "Condemned? Why was it condemned? It was fine the last time I went past it!" *Lady Mercury attempts to cover up the fact that she is wary of this person by going on the offensive* Where can I find this Justice of the Peace then?! Did it not occur to them to help keep the school intact?!" *Lady Mercury Glares unconvincingly at Shadow Voice*

*Shadow Voice isn't fooled he knows he has Lady Mercury on edge.*
"The buildings inner structure was gutted by some manner of a cretuer that attacked it. Some of the main supports and foundations have been completly obliterated. Any repaire work would be extremly costly for this town."
"And besides most of the staff have left save for one whos now in buissnes as a Private Tutor. A few of the schools old pupils have signed up wth him."
"As for the Justice Of The Peace his office is at the town Hall. But your wasting your time. No ammount of argumnet is going to change his ruleing. Nor will any bribery Of the money kind or....
*Looks Lady Mercury over head to toe.*
"The feminan Flesh kind."
*Smriks and again draws on his cigeret.*
"He's Not an Atlaitian Mercery after all."

*Knows full well he's touched a nerve.*
"Oh Don't you Lady Mercury."
*Notices her shocked expresion.*
"Yes I know WHO you are. And for your information he IS still in town if your intrested in looking to renew 'old aquitences'."
"The Headmistress has not been seen in a long time even before the School was closed, so I don not know if even she is aware of what has transpierd."

*Lady Mercury looks coldly at Shadow Voice* "if you mean who I think you mean then yes, I need to see him, but I need to find the headmistress first, do you have any information reference Him, or the headmistress?" *Lady Mercury looks at him in a new light, surprised that he percieved who she was*

*Ponders the question.*
"Hmmmm The Headmistress hasn't been seen for a while now. Suppose if she was to return she would go to the school."
"As for your Mercerey 'Freind' he's sopme were on a job at the moment but he's got lodgigs here so if you wait here he's bound to turn up sooner or later."
"You could always ask the landlord for the key to his room and supprise him when he retunrs."
*Shadow Voice says in a some what sacrastic and condesening tone.*

*Lady Mercury sneers elegantly*
Maybe I'll do just that! Give him a most unpleasant surprise when he returns
*Lady Mercury smiles grimly and bows slightly to Shadow Voice, a mocking hint now in her eyes as she turns to walk away*

*Shadow Voice watches her go. Then there is a breif commotion as a drunk falls over out of his seat. Lady Mercury turns to look at the scene and happans to glance back to were Shadow Voice had been standing but 2 moments ago. But now There was no one there and even more bizzar the corner that had been so dark and dingy now seemed somewhat lighter now.* [ModNote: Next seen in Shopping for Answers.]

*Lady Mercury raises her eyebrows slightly and smiles to herself* "Interesting..... I'll have to look into this one's background, he knows far more than is good for him" *Lady Mercury walks over to Dal and smiles gently* "I'm looking for a "friend" of mine called Leytan and was told he was staying here, please can you place me in a room and when he returns, please give him this package" *Lady Mercury removes a small package from under her cloak, and hands Dal it. Dal notices that the covering is of an extremly good quality silk* (OOC continued in Looking for Leytan)
