Chapter 5
In reply to Ciryl Fontaine (msg # 53):
The Small Awkward Table
"Hmmm, ye heard?" asks one man.
"It's... not a simple subject is it?" puts int he other quickly. "If I could ask, where have you been traveling of late?"
The Main Table
The hairy man chuckles into his fish, going beet red.
"Aye, that's true. You've a quick tongue. Truth be told, I cheated a bit: I spent much of my youth further north, seen many a bookworm heading to this dig or that. You have an air about you I seen many a time."
He tosses a bone over one shoulder.
"Disappointment is always in the eye of the beholder, isn't it? If you like dust, rocks, and old scrolls, you'll be happy enough. Most of what's left has been picked over for years. I never made it past LostHelm, but I hear above the mountains is where the real research is."
He makes no discernible reaction to Brennan's emphasized words.
