"Not One Word Rob. Not One."

I have all you need right here at very low prices." "Cooking Untensils and pots and pans. 10 S.Ps" "Perfume from the Orient. 5 G.Ps" "Or for any young Dungeoneer's out there." "A Map of The Sewers Of Goth. Just 1 Gold Bar." "Or how about, This lovely Fire stone. Perfect for negoticating a ride on The Great Wyme Smerkinoff." *The Red Stone sudernly simmers and turns green. Nesty Quikly hides it under his stall hopeing no one saw that. But Rob did.* |

Rob: it appears our Mr Nesty is just as much as a sneak as Edward Deal was, in fact it wouldn't surprize me if they were from the same Merchants Guild.
*Approaches Nesty's store*
Rob: Excuse me Mr Nesty, or do you have a first name? I was in a bit of a hurry earlier and I didn't get a chance to talk properly with you. Me and my friend Tom here need to speak to you in private, we mean you no harm but have to ask some important questions. I'm sure you'll understand.
*Rob displays a smile which looks as though he means well under his cloak he is gripping his staff in case of emergency*

"My Name is Herny Oliver Nesty. My dear Rigmaster."
*Again for a few seconds the act slips as Deal mentions Rob's name.*
"No problem at all Mr. Troughton. I will be only to glad to help two of Wolfenden's most worth and good citerzens."
"What do you need to know?"

Rob: Earlier today you sold me a detect curse scroll *Rob holds out the scroll* I used it and it detected a curse, however when I attempted to identify it then the curse was not a recognised curse and only recongised curses are detectable by detect curse. This leads me to believe the scroll was faulty, do you know who supplied you with this scroll?

"Hmmmm.....Let me think. I belive I aquired that scroll as payment of a debt."
"Yes Some fellow from somewere called The Neatherworld's or something like that."
"Faulty you say. Well that is most regretable but I did sell it to you in good faith Rob, I was not aware of any faults I assure you."

*The mention of the Netherworlds immediatly proves in Rob's mind that Scareye is responsible.*
Rob: Mr Nesty I suggest you do no more business with whoever supplied you with that scroll as they are nothing but trouble, as more myself I will go and acquire an new one.
*Rob leaves the marketplace with Tom when a portal opens, Rob's double's voice is heard speaking to Tom*
Double: Mr Troughton, please come help the boarding school, we are in need of your aid!
*The portal beckons Tom to it and Rob nods to tell Tom to go*

[ModNote: Last seen in Return To The HQ.] *Visage speaks softly but with great intensity* Fortunately for you the Lord Scareye does not yet want anything, although when he does it will probably be your head on a platter. You are so adept at lying, yet at the first opportunity you blithely reveal the origin of that scroll! Where are your allegiances, Deal? *Visage leans in closer* Do you have any idea how much you could jeapordise. Do you?! Do you know how much I did to bring you into the fold? *Looking around to check that no-one is looking, he comes around the side of Deals store and brings his face very close to Deal's. Then he loosens his cowl* Remember Deal, that your soul is ours... *Deal can only stare at the face revealed to him alone in the darkness of the hood, for the face is... his own! His old face, before he became Nesty. It stares at him with bloodshot eyes, and his own voice emerges, still whispering* You died Deal, everyone saw it, you were up there on that scaffold.... *Visage pulls down the fabric to reveal livid, horrible bruises on his neck, Deal's neck, a bone nearly protruding from the skin* Do you know what it is like to hang up there, Deal? The burn, the lurch, the sickening snap.... I went through death for you Deal, and it so easily could be... WILL be you if you betray me again. *In a second the cowl is wrapped round again, the figure is again anonymous, to anyone except Deal, the figure was nothing more than an angry shopper.* Now take care Deal, I have something else to attend to.... Remember, if you turn traitor, we know where to find you.... |
