Re: THE WALK THE PLANK
Reedrick is about to say something when the waitress bring over a crock with a Ladle and three bowls , she takes fine silver spoons out of her apron and lays one in front of each of the men.
Another , somewhat Younger girls comes with a tray and a pewter Pitcher od ale..three puter mugs, The Mugs and Pitcher are getting a film on as they warm up.
Reedrick nods to them both and they head off to other tables,Ale's Cold..so'd the pitcher and Mugs..we have Some Ice below..get some fresh every Month from the mountains... as he talks he fills Baku and fetchers Bowls to the rim, then his.
the younger girl returns with a bowl of hot biskets wrapped in a clean bartowel.
she place a jar of Butter and some silver knives. As Reedrick butters a roll he says,..first off? we're the Crimson Arrows...some folks like us, some folks hate us...but ain't only one thing that matters...we get the job done...sometimes? it ain't anywhere near pretty..but we make sure we do our jobs.
fetcher smiles as he spoons the stews in his mouth, dipping a roll in the bowl and eating that as well.
We take almost any job, unless its what we thing is bad?....now? we have units running around out there..the leaders, they'll pick up side jobs from the towns and such...bottom line is..we don't kill anyone that don't deserve ta be killed..but..boyo? we'll kill them dead if they are..
..now...no matter what compnay ya sign with?...there is some other company that don't like ya..some are just flat out dark...they'll take a job ta kill an orge, and a day later take a job to steal some babies for a wizrad to make spells with..
Those folks?..we will kill..and they know it..so's they want to kill us...Ironmound...she's a free city, anyone can come and go..which makes it damn hard to keep spies out....but if yer a Slaver or Come from HArgen or maybe work with them red Elves....River Pirates.. well..sooner or later you'll do somethin' stupid and a price will be put on yer head..or?..you get caught by the watch..then you'll end up in the arena.
We ain't all real good folks..we have some folks who are as near the the dark as they are the lIght, but that don't make no nevermind...if ye do your job, protect your people ..yer good..
he takes a spoon full of stew and nods at the taste as he looks at the Bowl, his eyes lips as he chews,..oh?..an' we kill slavers..every chance we get..sorta the family business..that part is...
now...we have a unit down river..just so happens they took a Job from the Emperor hisself...ain't heard from them, Cept the Little winged one came up and gave me an Update..they might be able to use anything body... If ye want in, ye can start off tomorrow morning, take a rom here tonight, on the house....
..ifin ye don't want ta sign with us?..you can take a room at half price fer the night, least we can do, since ye wasted the time ta talk.
