"These people say they are in your employ, and were defacing public property with your advertising. Do you have permits for that, and for this business as well? I reall would rather not have the blue cloaks down this end of things `investigating', they are enough of a nuisance down at dockside near Vilgar's old place."

In reply to Karlow (msg # 130):

"I heard about that debacle. My uncle made sure we are permitted, although he went as far as to suggest we might try and get them as customers down here, along with members of your department. We sell supplies, ale, and hot and cold food. Think of us when you have your lunch break."
He passes a leather folio through the gate, and Karlow flips through some documents marked with the seals of the Hadereum, the Adventurer's  Guild, and the Guild of Brewers and Tavernkeepers.

Grimaldi exchanges glances with the others.

The half elf wears a wry expression.

In reply to Martin Haight (msg # 131):

"Hmm. These seem to be in order. Now how is your ale?"

In reply to Karlow (msg # 134):

"Come inside, let me buy you a drink."

In reply to Hragosh (msg # 135):

"Hey, weren't you a cheerer about three years after mine and Bart's year?"

They unlock the gate, and the sewer orc steps inside...

"We should get back to work now, so we'll be going."
Sederic will leave, when the gate is opened, and lead the group back to where they were putting up the second sign, before interrupted.

Grimaldi follows.

In reply to Grimaldi (msg # 138):

While Karlow gets his drink on, you head back to that intersection and the laborers hammer away.  A few minutes later and they are done. Where to now?

"Wasn't there a north passage, from this point? Let's check that out."

In reply to Grimaldi (msg # 140):

There were both a North and a West passage.

"Let's take the west passage. We'll come back, and hit the north, on our way back." Sederic leads the group, westward-ho.

In reply to Sederic (msg # 142):

You pass a couple of doors with the odd numbering system
carved above (goblin and elven runes, and roman numerals.)
You also pass a pair of gates on opposite sides that lead
 into large dark spaces.
Ahead is another intersection.

"Okay, let's put a couple signs this way. One by each gate, in the darkened areas over there..."
The half elf points, ahead.

Grimaldi watches their rear..

In reply to Sederic (msg # 144):

As you bring the light you can see into the darkened areas.
One gate leads into a large arched room with many doors along the sides,
And a lowered ramp down the center.
It looks very dusty.
The other side leads into a similar space, although it looks swept, and in its central sloped trench are a couple of barrels.

"Yes, there's a few spots around this area that could use some light, and direct traffic...I have a feeling that Karlow will be a good word-of-mouth advertiser, since we've brought him into the know..."

In reply to Grimaldi (msg # 147):

"I have been down in the tunnels a couple of times. These look like the common area between basements in a block of row houses. Most of them are bricked up, but this one over here looks like it is still in use for trash pickup. I just don't know if the sewer workers do the pickup or not."

"Aye, these dusty areas don't look like they've seen foot traffic in awhile, so it'd be a waste of our signs, to put them where nobody goes. Let's put some up over here, where there's at least signs of traffic."

In reply to Sederic (msg # 149):

The laborers nail one up next to the dusty gate, where the light can be seen from within the better kept area.

Nothing seems to notice the noise at this time.

Grimaldi idly swashes his estoc, in the stagnant air.

"So, are you adventurers as well, or just laborers that contract with the guild?"

In reply to Sederic (msg # 153):

"We are proud members of the Guild, and our job is porting and packing for Adventuring types. I am also a member of the Longshoreman and dock workers guild."
