*She informs Deal by using a communications spell.*
Lady Morgan: Deal can you hear me?
Deal: Yes I can Equaliser or should I say Lady Morgan?
Lady Morgan: Yes, congratulations but I have more important business to attend to.
Deal: Yes?
Lady Morgan: You have a traitor in you order, that idiot goblain master Skarkill has befriended the elf bitch and has told her the plans and who sent the contracts.
Deal: *swears* I knew you should never trust a goblain to do a man's job.
Lady Morgan: He will come looking for you to get back for what you did to Kully. I am going to see to it that the elf maiden is killed and her mage friend, you take care of Skarkill. Understand? Deal: Yes Lady Morgan, BUT make sure you do a good job. No witnesses and NO evidence.
*Lady Morgan ends the communications spell and recieves a spell from assasin Darkraven telling her Rob had fled to Dunn forest*
Lady Morgan: Hmm, first the mage will die and then the elf bitch.

[ModNote: Brother Strange was, by coincidence, last seen in Strange noises.] *Just afer Kully and Skarkill have left (while Equaliser is using her communications spell from the shadowy rooftops), Brother Strange emerges from a dark side alley, and heads purposefully the opposite way which Skarkill and Kully. As Equaliser finishes her spell, and looks down, Brother strange has reached the bushes where Kully had been hiding, and is examining them, muttering to himself.* "Hmm... their spirits are disturbed, and their shapes not quite as nature intended. Something was used here, magic or something else. Interesting...." *Was he hiding down that side alley, listening? Did he hear any of Skarkill and Kully's conversation? Does he know about Deal, or of Equaliser's existence and the contract on RingmasterRob? Or is he simply a harmless passer by? Can Equaliser risk Strange being a possible witness?*

*Equaliser sees Strange and looks worried*
Equaliser: *to herself* Hmm a holy man, a wanderer? He could ruin everything but I cannot kill a religious man. *reaching in her pocket for some pixie's dream (sleep dust)* Goodnight brother. *Brother Strange looks up as the dust sprinkles into his hood and his hands clasp in a desperate motion as he falls into a deep sleep. Equaliser drags him into an open wine cellar in the alley and closes it.* Equaliser: Now to take out the Mage.

*The moment the wine cellar door is closed, Brother Strange's eyes flick open. Not only is this long before the pixie's dream should wear off, but in his cold grey eyes there is no sign of sleepiness.* *He stands, still, listening for a few moments, until he is satisfied that the Equaliser has gone.*
*He murmurs to himself* "'Now to take out the mage', eh? Well the reformed goblin and the elf maiden are neither of them mages, so whoever this lady, and indeed it is a lady by her manner of speech is intending to go after it is neither of them."
*The doors to the wine cellar swing open at the touch of Brother Strange's hands. Despite being old and squeaky, they make no sound as they glide silently open.* *Brother Strange walks out of the wine cellar and down the street, eerily silent as always. As he reaches the bushes, where he was attacked, he lifts his head and looks around, as if seeing a landscape no-one else can see.*
"To the forest it is then" *he says out loud, presumably to himself, because there is no-one else around... or is there?*
*He departs*

*Despite there being clouds of the Pixie's dream in the air then Brother Strange strolls through them without the slightest effect, Equaliser clearly slipped up here, or did she?

(This is the guy who wanders unarmed through the dwarven tunnels, and is often encountered between, say, a horrible number of Snapdragons and a large troll. He also seems to know enormous amounts of vital stuff [like codes for the next level etc.] for no known reason. You don't think he might be a litle bit special?)

*Without turning his head, and continuing to walk along, Brother Strange says, quite calmly*
"Well, Sir, you are certainly a mage, but you are not the one I am looking for. If you will excuse me I need to get to the Fore-"
*He stops, cocks his head to onje side as if listening, then says.*
"Or rather, not the forest any more." *mutters* " Damn new-fangled transportation magic. What's wrong with walking like everyone else." *end of muttering*
*Brother Strange turns abruptly and strides off towards Ida's hut in Wolfenden. Despite the fact he has never been there.*
"If you wish to converse with me, Mr mage, I suggest you do it on the move. I have an urgent appointment to keep."

*The figuer springs from the tree and lands beside Brother Strange and starts walking with him without missing a beat.*
"Allow me to introduce myself to you, My name is Tom Troughton, I am not a mage as such more of a Hobo magican. I wander These relms."
"I understand you are looking for the mage known as Ringlordrob. To warn him about The assaisns after him. Am I correct in this assuption?"

I am indeed looking for Ringmasterrob, but I am sure that he is very well aware of the assassins after him by now.
My intentions are rather to inform him of who hired the assassins, and of information which Rob should be aware of before he attempts to avenge himself against said person. I also intend to see if I can explain to the assassins that the person who hired them wishes to cancel their contract.
Of course, this assumes he is prepared to help me add to my collection, and that he is not dead or in posession of this information by the time I find him.
And how are you involved in this, Mr Troughton?

"Ursely I stay out of this sort of thing. Messy buissness assasination and what not, But Myself and the lead assasin Equliser are old.........Aquintances would be the best word for it. Our paths have crossed befor now."
"She has now got it into her head that I will interfer in there plans, also one of the guilds custormers a Mr. Edward Deal has murderd a freind of one of My dearest freinds, so wether I like it or not I am now in the middle of this."
"I also leanerd from the spell that equliser had had to deal with a Monk befor she had arrived in the market, you."
"So I transported myself here to try and help you, however the spell missfired agine and I wound up stuck in that tree."
"Now I intend to try and find either Rob or Kully or Ida as that is were we are heading. To Ida's hut so as to help them."
